America's Army "Cannot find matching GLX visual", X.Org, 128MB ATI Radeon 9200
These are my hardware specs, if they'll be of any help:
Graphics card: 128 MB ATI Radeon 9200 Chipset: AMD Athlon "Thoroughbred" XP+ 2200. Processor speed: 1.8 GiHz Same with software: Distro: Ubuntu 5.10 "Breezy Badger" Display: X.Org 6.8.2-77 Mesa version: 6.2.1 Kernel: 2.6.12-10-386 I can't get past the splash screen after trying to start the game with "sh armyops" in the main directory. The first message I got was: Code:
Cheat protection disabled This is the message I get now: Code:
Cheat protection disabled I've taken certain solutions on the Internet, such as linking the GL drivers to the America's Army system directory through ln -s, and/or using LD_PRELOAD="/usr/lib/libGL.so" before running the game. Neither have worked. I even ran a sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and let it run through the options, being sure to reset driver to "fglrx" after. It still hasn't worked. Here is the output of fgl_glxgears, glxgears -printfps, and glxinfo (in that order): Code:
X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) Code:
1611 frames in 5.3 seconds = 303.749 FPS Code:
name of display: :0.0 |
Just some ideas:
Do you have: Code:
Load "glx" Code:
# Load "dri" Another question, I have nVidia card so I am not sure, but is fglrx the proprietary ATI driver? I believe you will need that for the hardware acceleration this game requires. If you do get the game running be carefull! I accidently shot an army guy and they put my character in the brig and wouldn't let me play the game anymore. I'm waiting for the black helicopters to come now... |

fglrx, to the best of my knowledge, is not the proprietary ATI driver. |
Yeah, you can't have glx and dri. Try one or the other. And again, not sure but you may have to install the binary ATI driver to get it to work.

Code:
Xlib: extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0". Code:
Driver does not provide the FireGL X11 Extensions! Quote:
PS: Going back and commenting out GLX left me worse off. Lol. GLX extension was missing and when I tried glxgears it said this: Code:
Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual |
Sorry guy, you are going to have to wait for an ATI expert to help here, as I am fresh out of ideas.
