Good test for new GeForce and SBLive?
After much wailing and gnashing of teeth trying to get onboard sound (cs4235) and Savage4 working, I gave up and bought a SBLive5.1 and GeForce2 64Mb (I know they're dated, but they're all I can afford). Sndconfig worked perfectly with my RedHat7.3 to setup the soundcard. RPM's worked perfectly to install modules and drivers for nVidia card. Edited XF86Config-4 according to directions on nVidia website. I can get into my GUI just fine (nVidia splash screen and all). The only program that I have that might test the video card is (I think) Tuxracer. When I tried to run it, I got a blank screen; waited a bit, then sound started up but still a black screen; mouse was not moving the cursor, so I did ctrl-alt-backspace to exit out of X and I got the Tuxracer splash screen (press any key to continue). Keyboard wasn't working either, so I had to do a hard reset. Is there a log file that will tell me what went wrong? Is there a better game to test the OpenGL?
TIA |
PROBLEM SOLVED. Moved SBLive to another PCI slot. Tuxracer runs just perfect now.
