As the title suggests, my OpenGL rendering is entirely messed up or not there at all. For instance, when I try to run the Linux version of the Unreal Tournament 2004 Demo, the textures are all green-glicthes, the text looks like you're wearing drunk-goggles, and nothing works.

I installed "Mesa3D" but it didn't do anything to remedy the situation.

I think I need to update my video (Radeon 9000) drivers, but last time I tried, I butchered everything, as seen in this thread: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...hreadid=144957

I tried using the Check.sh file that ATI provides on their Radeon 9000 Linux driver page, but it fails and won't display my XFree version and information as it's supposed to.

That thread listed above generally outlines my problems, but at least now I'm back in Xwindows! :-) Now, I just need to get 3D rendering right, and all will be good!

I don't have an ATI myself, but with nvidia, after you've installed the official drivers, you should not install mesa or any other openGL libraries to avoid conflicts. I bet ATI works pretty much like that. (someone will point out the right answer here for sure). If I was you, I'd started dumping mesa and getting the drivers to work correctly first, before installing anything which requires 3D...

The drivers don't install. Last time, in my previous thread, I forced them over xfree, and it caused it to shoot me to a command prompt and not even recognize the display.

[EDIT]

Just so you know, here is what I get when TRYING to install the drivers...

[root@localhost KEEP]# rpm -i fglrx-glc22-4.3.0-3.7.0.i386.rpm
file /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so.1.2 from install of fglrx-glc22-4.3.0-3.7.0 conflicts with file from package libxfree86-4.3-24.1.92mdk
[root@localhost KEEP]#



An OpenGL file looks like it's conflicting with X's GL file...

- And, yeah, I know,... I'm running at root. I always do.

Ah, ok, but I still can't get them to work, as seen in that error I posted in my last message...

Any ideas? Anyone?

Moderators : After this, I will not BUMP this topic again, but right now this thread is located on the fifth page.

Yeah, I'm getting the exact same thing. Quake 3 and tuxracer run great... but ut2003 and 2004 run just like you said. Runs fine in software mode (if you can call running slow as hell fine). Is Quake 3 running for you?

If you're using MDK 9.1 for sure it has XFree 4.3.0, so just download the drivers from ATi webpage and run the rpm.
With my Radeon 9500 UT2k3 works preety good

I managed to fix mine up. Just needed to update the drivers. I got the latest from ATI's website. This page helped me out:

Hope that helps. I'm going back to playing UT now
