linux:~ #
any help?
And when I do add "+set r_allowSoftwareGL 1" to the command line, I get the game running but it is sooo slow I can't even move my cursor across the page properly.

Michael

You cant run ET at a decent speed using software acceleration. You need to get some opengl drivers working for your video card. If you have a NVIDIA card, it wont be too difficult. If you have an ATI card, it will take some extra effort and a little luck.

1. What distro are you running?
2. What kernel are you using?
3. What video card do you have?
4. Have you ever recompiled a kernel?

I'm having a similiar problem but I also get this line:

Using 4/4/4 Color bits, 16 depth, 0 stencil display.
Xlib: extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
GL_RENDERER: Mesa GLX Indirect

My answers:

1. Fedora Core 3
2. 2.6
3. Radeon 9600Pro256
4. Nope but I could just ask my dad for help.

Ok Radeon cards are hard to get the driver to do hardware opengl (glx). Mesa GLX Indirect is a software opengl renderer and ET won't run on that.

Bottom line...You must recompile your kernel with an appropriate apgart module and the Direct Rendering Manager module for Ati Radeon.

Then, check your xorg.conf or XF86config-4 for Load "glx" and Load "dri"; you do not want a # in front of them.

Use the command glxgears to check if its working.
If you are totally lost try google or here is a link (gentoo related but will still help)

You need to change your color depth to 24 in eithe you XF86Confif or Xorg file. That will fix it.

i'm running suse 9.3 64-bit. I have an nvidia video card with 64mb memory. and i don't like the sound or recompiling kernels, unless it's popcorn. does this have anything to do with enabling/disabling 3D?

nm, i enabled 3d and it works, the game that is, but i have other problems now. if it's ok wit u, i'll just mention my problem here.

when i have 3D enabled, all my graphics, including games, run killer fast...way ton better than in windows...problem is, thouh, whith 3D enabled, the right 2.5 inches of my screen is black, with the exception of this itty bit of it that is acctualy a mirror of another part of my screen...also the bottom half inch of my screen ins screwed up. i can play the game fine, and do everything fine, but my screen is still screwed up. I will try to restart my computer and see what will happen, but my guess is that things will still be screwed up. any ideas? thnx
