I don't have a directory called i586. i586 is the type of computer I have right?
And why would I have a directory called i686 in the first place?

well, what is your processer? thats how you tell.

Inexactitude · 10-15-2003, 10:02 PM

Oh, My processor is 2.53 intel pentium 4.

LavaDevil94 · 10-16-2003, 04:54 AM

oh, well then its a i686. i686's are (i think) anything greater then a pentium pro. how about searching your hd for an i686 folder?

Okay, I do have an i686. I got confused bacause in the mandrake control center it says:

System: Mandrake Linux Release 9.0 (dolphin) for i586

Also, the drivers have i586 in the filename, but I dont think that is a big deal. So, why would I be getting a "segmentation fault" with that file in the i686?

Also, in my hardware profile, it doesn't have information on my video card (a radeon 9700 pro). It has blank info, null, and unknowns. Could this have to do with something?

well the control center usually doesnt recognize your vid. card unless its old (it doesnt see mine and i have a radeon 9000, i hope i can run doom3). im not sure what to do here.

Oh, okay. Maybe I should try to install a new library.

Yes! I got it to work. I upgraded to mandrake 9.2 rc and xfree86 4.3. and now it works fine.

LavaDevil94 · 10-18-2003, 06:57 AM

what xfree did you have before? im just curious, since i like 4.2.0 only and because of that i still use mandrake 8.2

Inexactitude · 10-18-2003, 11:50 AM

I was on xfree86 4.2.1

I Finally got my ATI 9700 to work somewhat with RedHat 7.3 i686 kt400 XFree-4.2.x
And Im am blasting out the same error as you looks like i will have to update my XFree to 4.3..
