Trying to get enemy territory to work
 

Here is the skinny:
My sound works fine.
I sucessfully installed the Nvidia driver for my gforce card. I get the Nvidia splash screen so I assume it is working properly.
I installed Enemy Territory and when I run it here are the errors
I could not get it to work before because I couldn't get my video card installed. Now it is installed I thought problem solved.
Anyways, here is the error I receive.
Please help
TIA

Sys_Error: GLimp_Init() - could not load OpenGL subsystem

what is the output of :
glxinfo | grep rendering
and also :
cat /etc/X11/XF86Config | grep glx

ready to play fixed sound also
 

Thanks very much. I needed to uncomment the Load glx.
FYI, all
My sound did not work at first I had to change permissions on /dev/dsp0
Here is how ith now looks

crw-rw--w- 1 root sys 14, 51 Aug 29 03:47 dsp3
crw-rw--w- 1 root sys 14, 35 Aug 29 03:47 dsp2
crw-rw--w- 1 root sys 14, 19 Aug 29 03:47 dsp1
crwxrwxrwx 1 root sys 14, 3 Aug 29 03:47 dsp0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Feb 23 12:29 dsp -> dsp0

Now I can help the next lost soul who want's to Play.
Cheers.


Thanks again.

Hi,
I have the exact same problem when i load up ET, the thing is, im a noob to linux and have no idea what you mean to solve it.

What distribution of linux do you use, and what version of X?

Follow the thread from the beginning. I had to uncomment a line in the /etc/X11/XF86Config file.
Look for a line like this.
# load "glx"
or something like that.
To uncomment it just remove the # so it looks like
load "glx"
In Linux programs skip over line that start with #
It's like rem in DOS
good luck
Jeem
