PostPosted: Tue May 18, 2004 4:07 am    Post subject: GLX Problem Reply with quote

I am current writing my own graphics engine. It works fine on my desktop(nvidia fx 5900 ultra - offical nvidia driver) but on my laptop(ATI Radeon 7500 Mobile DRI driver), both running gentoo 2.6.6 ~x86 I get the following run-time error, it compiles fine on both computers with no errors or warnings.

Couldnt setup window: Couldn't find matching GLX visual

Quake III ET and all other games work fine on my laptop. Infact the same code ran fine on my laptop untill I switched from fedora core 1 to gentoo. I redid my XF86Config file so I have a feeling its some were in there.

Code:

Did you read nvidia README? I'm sure you didn't. Unhash this line in your config:
Code:

#   Load  "glx"

I just took a second look it is unhashed. I have two module loading places in my config file one old one new. The old one it is hashed because I dont use that module loading func anymore the new one has it.

I figured out while switching from XFree to x.org what the problem is. While going through my xorg.conf file I realized that the depth was set to 16 so I set it to 24(32 was to high, at least for me) and that fixed the problem.
