This could be caused by a few things.
Do you have the nvidia drivers for your graphics card installed ? these must be installed and working correctly. Run the command glxinfo | grep direct you want to see output like the following direct rendering: Yes The drivers can be downloaded from Nvidia's website at http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux.html If you have the drivers installed then the DOOM 3 FAQ for linux has a couple of suggestions for this type of error. The FAQ is at http://zerowing.idsoftware.com/linux/doom/ HTH Mad. |
ya i have my drivers installed and working perfectly. and i have already looked at that page u posted. none of it helped. I seem to be having the same sorta of problem as gentoo users here is what i get for everything for what that page told me to try for my prob:
[someone@localhost someone]$ glxinfo | grep direct direct rendering: Yes [someone@localhost someone]$ LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libGL.so.1 doom3 /bin/sh: error while loading shared libraries: /usr/lib/libGL.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory [someone@localhost someone]$ USE="nptl" emerge glib bash: emerge: command not found [someone@localhost someone]$ |
