 Posted: Wed Nov 03, 2004 3:58 pm Post subject: GLX Not working with XOrg 6.7 w/ ATI 3.14.1 Drivers |
 |
|
Hello,
Thank you for looking at my post, I'm having an issue with a OpenGL game that I am trying to run (UT2004) using the ATI 3.14.1 Drivers with Xorg 6.7 using kernel 2.6.8-gentoo-r10. I have followed this guide http://odin.prohosting.com/wedge01/gentoo-radeon-faq.html as far as installing the drivers, I do have the correct chipset support for my motherboards AGP port (NForce2), this is the error I get once trying to start ut2004:
| Code: |
open /dev/[sound/]mixer: no such file or directory
WARNING: ALC_EXT_capture is subject!
Couln't set video mode: Couldn't find matching GLX visual.
|
Here is what 'lsmod' reports:
| Code: |
$lsmod

It appears that the module is loaded for the ati drivers, however i'm still not able to play any OpenGL games, glxgears does work.
I would appreciate any information on my issue.
Thank you for your time and efforts.

I'm not having any issues with lockups due to me not being able to actually get a opengl game to run that far.
I do have GLX loaded in my xorg.conf as well, and I checked the Xorg.0.log and it does state it starts wtihout any errors

Bingo. You hit the money rasto I changed Option "UseInternalAGPART" "no" and now glxgears is screaming with FPS 2000+ ( i know this is not the best we to measure your system performance)
I then ran ut2004 and it started up! 
Of course I cannot test the performance of UT2004 since I was using VNC to connect to my desktop.
Thanks for the help!
