Nope. Provided you have a r300g compatible chip (r5xx and earlier), you only need to update your packages with the ppa.

It´s specified in the ppa intro/instructions:

For r300g in Ubuntu you don´t. If you use the xorg-edgers ppa, that´s the default driver it installs (they don´t package r300c anymore). For r600g you do need to configure some files.

With the r300g driver (Gallium3D) you get OpenGL2.1 compared to OpenGL1.5 with the "classic" drivers (what Ubuntu loads by default). Granted, GLSL (what most 3D intensive Linux games use for eye...

Last time I tried Nexuiz with that chip under Windows, it actually ended up being playable; same settings, but was able to get upwards of 20fps. Mind you that was a long time ago and on an older...

I got a RS480 here (also a Xpress 200M chip). The latest Nexuiz does work, but incredibly slow (even at 800x600 on low details); 20fps max, though for most of the game I get 5-10fps. Mind you I...

Same problem here. Had to use an USB stick.

Onlive would be one of the last things you would want on Linux. The stuff is even worse than WINE when it comes to Linux games (technical, philosophical, or any other reason you can think of). In...

After I discovered the kernel ppa I stopped using kernelcheck, but I have gone back to it due to the recent ppa packages not playing nice with my laptop for some reason. Like the new interface, even...

They should use tessellation now that it's available for OpenGL.

Probably die out.

Check the command glxinfo to see if you got 3d acceleration:


glxinfo | grep "renderer string"

That should come back with something mentioning DRI and Mesa. If it says anything about software...

Your card is no longer supported by current driver versions. The last driver release to work with the card is 9.3, which won't work on Ubuntu newer than 9.04. If you want to use newer versions of...

It is DRM. In fact, you can call it "hardware DRM". That little modem thingy you have to get for the service? Yeah, that's it right there.
As for the technical aspects of it, I doubt they will be...

So, is Alientrap now working with/for IllFonic? I don't get how the console project is now "their new" project. The core Nexuiz team at Alientrap is still there to freely work on the original...

Did they "sell" the name? What I read from their site is that they simply agreed for the new Nexuiz to use their domain and name for image and identification purposes, so it's more like "borrowing"....

The latest driver has issues with composition. Turn it off and you should be fine, or downgrade to the 10.1 driver.

Install the package mplayerthumbs. The open up Dolphin and Settings > Configure Dolphin > General > Previews. Check the video files box.

Make sure you're installing all three packages: libva1, libva1-dbg, libva-dev. Use the latest version, which is sds10.

Apparently it's a rewrite of some sort. Can't say that I find those sample shots pleasing though, and it will be interesting to see how they adapt the mechanics of the game to console controls....

Yes, using the Kubuntu Backports repository. But I think something got screwed during the update; kpackage kit no longer prompts for password (therefore I can't install things with it, though...

Provided the driver is properly installed, check /var/log/Xorg.0.log. Your vRAM size will be listed there. If you don't want to muck around the log, you can just type the following in a terminal:

Some weird interaction with ATI drivers? Then again, I'm experiencing similar behavior with both fglrx and radeon drivers.

Edit: With composition off I get 170fps with the linux binary and 145fps...

64bit.
Not worried about the open source drivers. Lots of changes being done with Mesa that are causing more performance regression on r6/7xx hardware, so it's no surprise it doesn't work that...

Does not worh with open source drivers and my HD4850; falls back to software rendering. Also, is there a reason the program runs slightly faster with WINE? With my HD4850 and fglrx I get 148fps. ...
