it looks like you don't have glx acceleration. I believe that there is a checkbox for this in the video plugin, something about hardware acceleration.
You can try this to see if you have it enabled or not.
| Code: | | glxinfo | grep rendering |
if it says yes then you have hardware acceleration enabled
Also you might just not have glx loaded at all. in your /et/X11/XF86config file make sure in the modules section you load the glx module, heres an except from my config file.
| Code: | Section "Module"
Load "dbe"
SubSection "extmod"
Option "omit xfree86-dga" # don't initialise the DGA extension
EndSubSection
Load "type1"
Load "freetype"
Load "glx" # This loads the GLX module, This is what you need
Load "dri"
EndSection |
Hopefuly that helps some.

Hey it worked thanx Seoushi ! ! !
now another problem if you dont mind. . . .
| Code: | * Init spu[0][libspuPeopsOSS.so.1.0.7]
Sound device not available! |
im sure that the sound card isnt busy and when i try to configure the sound plugin the term says.....
| Code: | | cfgPeopsOSS not found! |
the weird thing about this plugin is that if hit "test" epsxe says "plugin working correctly" (of course WRONG......)
i feeli like im missing something.....
thanx again Seoushi ! !! !

Glad I could help. As for your other problem, read on.
For first error you posted could be because either artds esd or another sound manager is using your soundcard or because the sound plugin isn't configured( I know its not beacuse of that otehr file that wasen't found but I will talk about that later). to check to see if a sound manager is running try
| Code: | | ps -e | grep artsd && ps -e | grep esd |
if something comes up then you have a sound manager running and you need to stop it. you can do this by or depending on which one comes up, if they do.
Another reason for the soundcard not being avaible is if you are using alsa and are not running oss emulation.
As for the file not found then here what I would suggest that you save your bios and then delete the ~/.epsxe folder(~/ points to your users home directory in case you didn't know). After you delete your ~/.epsxe folder run epsxe and then try configuring everything. If you are still getting the cfgPeopsOSS not found. then I suguest you delete the .epsxe folder again and remerge the plugin (its called psemu-peopsspu). the reason for deleting the ~/.epsxe folder is because I've had simular problems with epsxe and it symlinking to the file but it actaully wants the file not the symlink.
If none of the above works then I have one last thing to try. go in your ~/.epsxe directory then go into the cfg directory then delete cfgPeopsOSS then you will have to find where the files is where it was symlinked to. I suguest you | Code: | | updatedb && slocate cfgPeopsOSS |
to find the file. after you find that file cp in the current directory your in (~/.epsxe/cfg/).
Sorry if I assume that you don't know much about linux just trying to help out and make myself clear if you don't have much experiance.

just wondering but did you even get epsxe from portage? its there if case you didn't know, I would emerge that if you didn't get it that way.
updatedb just updates the database of files for slocate and posible other programs for fast searching. Its just a much faster way of fidning things. So you would do updatdb after you have add/deleted alot of files or if you just want it up to date. then you would use slocate to find stuff.

yup yup i got epsxe from portage and no luck it could be a problem on the ebuild ? ? ? ? (whould be verrrrry weird.....) i sync'ed portage before emerging epsxe and i choosed the latest version that i had on portage....
however i read that the versions that portage offers (2 of them....) are to bypass some moments on certain games.....
any way im playing Final Fantasy Tactics (yes, again.....) without sound.......yet.....
sniff sniff so sad.....
thanx ! !

if you didnt emerge the plugins from portatge, thats maybe why it wasnt working that well.. i just went thru the hassle of settin up epsxe and i dl'd the plugins from petes website
what you have to do is emerge search psemu and select all the plugins from that list... thats what i did, and now my only problem is gettin the games to play  |
