Graphical bug
« on: April 02, 2008, 09:05:58 pm »
So i got a graphical bug. Here is a screenshot : (it is a view of Shiu Hri, in the winch, but it is like that everywhere; let me state the obvious : it looks like i got no texture !)

It's like that since i upgraded my ubuntu to hardy. My Xorg was crashig after the upgrade, so i reinstalled the NVIDIA driver, plus a few more maneuvers that fixed the mess. I got that since then. MY comp (it's one of those dell 530n) :

Core 2 duo E6750
NVIDIA 8300 GS with 169.12
Ubuntu Hardy Heron

Other games such as ETQW, Tremulous and OpenArena are working perfectlly well (at least as well as they used to).
I tried different things to fix it :
- Messed up in many various ways my r3dconfig file, mainly as it is proposed here in the topics and stickies, plus the way it's proposed on Induane's website, and also a few more ways of mine, to no avail.
- The same with the gldrivers.xml file, no result either.

I think it *might* have something to do with the 169.12 . If i remember correctly, i once had tried to update to it, got the same bug, went back to the 100.xx, whatever the exact number is, and the problem was corrected.

Here is what i get in the console when i launch PS with --verbose :

Hope someone can help me  :)
