Linux 2D Problems
« on: June 20, 2004, 10:37:38 am »
Hey guys, I gotta question.

Here\'s what I did:
I installed cel, CS and Planeshift under Linux, compiled and installed everything. Now, when I\'m trying to start Planeshift, a window pops up, I hear music, but the Screen is black with three white blocks in the middle! I think I also installed the arts, so I\'m running out of ideas how to fix this problem.
I\'d be glad if someone could help me.

Can you post the console log? It helps to understand your problem ;)

After starting PS with ./psclient, my console says this:

As I thought. Either your graphics driver is not correctly installed, or it doesn\'t  support direct rendering. Which graphics card and driver do you have installed?

I have a Geforce Ti 4200 64MB and the SuSE Yast Nvidia Driver installed. I also activated \"3D Acceleration\", doesn\'t help either!

I think this is the XFree driver which doesn\'t support DRI. Get this one instead: http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_1.0-5336.html

Well, I try to start the script in init 3, but the installer tells me he\'s unable to download a new compiled kernel or something like that from the NVIDIA site!
Man, I think I\'ll switch to Debian!

It just checks if it can find precompiled kernel headers for your system on the NVidia site. If it fails, you can still continue and it will compile the ones on your system. Next time read the error messages more carefully ;)

Then he says error in Makefile.
I\'m kinda losing my patience. Well, I\'ll install Debian and come back.

Why do you change your distro? Just because of the driver? *shakes his head* I think you just had to install the kernel sources.
Well good luck with debian. From what I heard  the compilation of PS is more troublesome than on other distros.

Because the more difficult one provides an own working installation routine!
BTW: Kernel Sources are installed, Kernel Nvidia Module, too.

I\'m fed up with RPMs! I always read good things about Debian, so I\'ll take a try.

Did you set the exports correctly? example:

export CRYSTAL=/opt/CS
export CEL=/opt/cel
export CSCONFPATH=/opt/cel

If you got your copy of PS from the Sourceforge or PS website try the CVS way as described here since that tarball is buggy for some people.
