I have a gaming probelm with Mandrake 9.1 (or KDE 3.1(dont know which one brought the problem))
Every time i start some full screen game it just strips the screen in to many strips like this
hello im a new user here i would like some help (would show as)
hello im a hello im a hello im a hello im a
Well u get what i mean . I just cant figure out the problem i would like some help from ppl who know linux
Im getting pretty unhappy that i cant play my freecraft (they are shutting it down :x)
Btw.My winex doesnt work too but this ill ask help for later

Open up a terminal window and launch the game from there. Then close the game and see if there are any error messages. Post whatever it syas here. Also what graphics card are you using?

FreeCraft is just being renamed and will continue under that new name, as we discussed before. They are also removing the WC2 compatibility.

As for your WineX problem, ask in the Emulation forum.

As for your other problem, did you install your 3D drivers properly? Did any games ever work? It sounds video-related, so post the output of glxinfo so we can look at it please.

freecraft wil become project inferno if I'm not mistaken (that can be )...but they don't have a website yet, theiy're on IRC....freenode.net

if (Freecraft == Dead)
Stratgus == Freecraft
Infero == Freecraft
Robotron == Freecraft
Freecraft == NULL
else
printf("/t Blizzard you suck /n");

Here is my glxinfo dont know much about anythin it says

You are using Mesa, which is software rendering...

If you have an NVidia card, follow the tutorial at my website (link in signature).

If you have an ATI card, well, may God have mercy on you...
