Graphic problems

[Boogieboi]

I have the exact same problem as you thoice, running Ubuntu Feisty with a Radeon 9200SE.

Edit: I'm using the open source ATI drivers, and in case it matters, the Gnome window manager.

I saved the verbose output of ./psclient, ./pssetup and ./updater in three different .txt's that I've linked at the bottom of this post. I'm sorry for the crappy hosting, I don't have a reliable web host and couldn't find any way to attach files to this board. The problem I have that the fonts in-game are unreadable, they look like the screens thoice linked to. As I said I'm running Ubuntu Feisty Fawn (v. 7.04) with kernel 2.6.20-12-generic, it's the 32bit version and I'm running it on an AMD Athlon64. The graphics card is a Radeon 9200SE using open source ATI drivers. Can anyone help me out, cause I'm stumped?

I have the exact same problem as thoice and Boogieboi on a Raden 9600XT and Ubuntu Edgy Eft.

If it is indeed a font problem, are there fonts that we need to install or uninstall?

When I run pslient, here is what is returned in terminal:

I have tried all kinds of things to get this font problem fixed. I tried downloading all the fonts I could find for Ubuntu, I tried changing the default application font from "Sans" to other things. I don't really understand this problem. I have a few games on this PC and none of them have reacted quite like this.

Hopefully there is an answer somewhere...

Hiya,

Finira, your inventory problem looks like broken support for the ARB_fragment_program extension.  I'm guessing Retek's problem is related to broken texture compression.

These problems arose on the Mesa DRI Intel drivers a while back, and I just had a report from a user with a r300 based card that similar issues arose.  Thus, I'm wondering if it's really just a Mesa 6.5.x issue.

Please try and download a patched gldrivers.xml and put it in data/config (back up the old one first, just in case).
 
Hopefully that should solve both your issues.

your link is broken, i can't find the file I am looking for. i also have those type of problems.

Still having the font problem, I tried the gldrivers.xml but it didn't seem to have any effect. Oh well... Maybe it's just not meant to be???

My output is the same as eaglesfan printed, I'm using an Intel 950GMA chipset.  Iledoca Peire or eaglesfan you have the  gldrivers.xml that was patched?  The link isn't working.

For those who are looking for Nilaya's gldrivers.xml patch - t's here.

I have more serious problems with the graphic card - it seems the open souce radeon dri drivers (r300) crash my system - I get that line with GART not being set correctly and then after a while the whole system freezes ...so if anyone has any idea, I'd be more then happy to know.

Thought I'd just revisit this old thread. If anyone is having the font issue, please try reading this: http://hydlaa.com/smf/index.php?topic=28316.0. Also, the gldrivers.xml file is also located here: http://vaalnor.mine.nu/vaalnor/videoglitch/gldrivers.xml.
