crus Report post Posted September 14, 2005 Hey all First i'd like to apologize if some1 allready posted this type of bugs, but i've went trough some posts and haven't found anything simmilar.. Ok before i post shots this is meh setup. Dual P3 512 ram Ati Radeon 7200 2.6.11 kernel SMP X Window version: 6.8.2 (distro is suse 9.3 so all packages are pretty much up to date) With the old version i had no problems. Here are the shots. trees in votd bag no ship flag (same thing on every ship, on every map) bridge in Portland missing rooftop in portland missing doors for portland storage ... swampy thing in nordcarn This is just few of them, same patter appears on every map.. Also, EL managed to kill meh X, actually, made it stuck, nothing i could do, mouse is there, music is playing, but i can't kill X, i can't open new terminal, and my shutdown button on case won't work, only solution is to force reset.. Is there anyhing i can do, and once this happens i get some sort of output which could help u to find out the reason why this is happening?. Tnx! p.s. i have tried enabling/disabling vertex stuff, shadows, reflections, etc etc etc.. but nothing changes! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mihaim Report post Posted September 14, 2005 Known bug. I have exactly the same problems. I'm trying to find a fix for it. Did you try with ati-driver-installer-8.16.20-i386.run ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crus Report post Posted September 14, 2005 I haven't my card is slightly older.. And if I remember correctly, on ATI website the drivers they release are not for my gfx card, so i'm stuck with DRI that is in X/kernel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Drakos7 Report post Posted September 14, 2005 That would be great because us laptop users cannot change out our graphics cards Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Drakos7 Report post Posted September 16, 2005 Yeah, I have the Radeon 7500 mobility (M7) as well. Works fine under WinXP, but i do not like having to reboot my laptop. Must be a driver issue. *sigh* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
