On the command line, what shell are you using?
Code:
echo $SHELL

What version is being run by the script?
Code:
/bin/sh --version

If the above command doesn't return a version id of some sort, it's probably the original Bourne shell. If so, ((command)) means to run command in a sub-shell of a sub-shell. The expression is evaluated, but lost, as it was only a sub-shell. In that case, you'll need something like:
Code:
sleeptime=`expr $sleeptime + 10`

The datafile must be an ordinary file, produced by x11perf in the following way: x11perf -display display -v1.3 -rop GXcopy GXxor -all > datafile It is possible to run the GXcopy and GXxor tests separately, as long as they are concatenated to the same output file: x11perf -display display -v1.3 -rop GXcopy -all > datafile x11perf -display display -v1.3 -rop GXxor -all >> datafile or x11perf -display display -v1.3 -rop GXxor -all > datafile x11perf -display display -v1.3 -rop GXcopy -all >> datafile FILES
