The drivers from ati.com are for Radeons 8500 and up if I'm correct. So I guess you already have best performance with the driver you're using now. As to why it works with two different drivers, I don't know really.... But what the heck, as long as it works! :D

You could also just double-click on the icon of the RPM in your filemanager (probably Konqueror). It'll ask you for your root password and then you can choose to install it. Let me know if it works.

I solved it using the nVidia forums. I'll give the solution so all can use it. Even if you don't have problems, you should do this, it will speed up your graphics to over twice it's speed! If you're output from glxinfo looked somewhat like mine before (especially the difference between the server GLX and the client GLX, you should run this script: #!/bin/sh # Usage: nvidia-use <enable|disable> # Switch between nvidia and nv use. You need to restart X for "nv" # (c) GPL by jlo VERSION="2005.04.07" if [ "$1" == "enable" ]; then ln -f -s ../../lib/libGL.so.1.0.7174 /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so.1 ln -f -s ../../lib/libGL.so.1.0.7174 /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so perl -pe 's/^\s+Driver\s+\"nv\"\s*$/\tDriver "nvidia"\n/;' -i /etc/X11/xorg.conf else ln -f -s libGL.so.1.2 /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so.1 ln -f -s libGL.so.1.2 /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so perl -pe 's/^\s+Driver\s+\"nvidia\"\s*$/\tDriver "nv"\n/;' -i /etc/X11/xorg.conf fi Then, as root, run it as sh nvidia-use.sh enable Make sure you replace the version in the first 2 lines starting with ln -f -s to your version of the nVidia driver.

Strangely enough, Quake3 ran before it, Doom3 didn't. But now Quake3 has a much higher framerate, as does tuxracer! I hope this will be helpfull to anybody! Greets! And thanks to all who tried to help me!

This is just an idea, I don't know for sure if I'm right... But I thought I read something about installing nForce drivers from nVidia's site... You might find your answer there.

It's only now that I realise this: <---cut---> server glx version string: 1.3 <---cut---> client glx vendor string: SGI client glx version string: 1.2 <---cut---> The server and client glx are different versions. Could this be a problem?

Okay, here's a short introduction to RPM: RPM-files end with ".rpm". Installing them can be done using the following command: rpm -ivh filename.rpm But you don't seem to have one. If it's a tar.gz file, I'd recommend unpacking it (you might want to try 'ark' for that) and telling us what you find inside. If it's sourcecode, you'd be lucky. It means you have to compile it yourself (don't worry, that part's easy, but I won't bother with details now) and install it. Which means it should be able to work fine with Mandriva. But then again, I doubt if they would provide source-code for their hardware... So I must admit I dare not say what sort of files you have. Could you maybe post a listing of all files in the tar.gz?

Well, tried that too now... Didn't do a thing. But I was wondering. Is it enough to restart my X-server by running: service dm restart as root? Or should I reboot my complete system for these changes to take effect?

I forgot to say, I've had Doom3 working under mdk 10.0 without any problems. I did no different now than I did then, except for the first line of the above post. I still don't really understand the problem. I mean, glxgears works fine, no complains. Same goes for Quake3 Arena. I must admit I really have no idea what this "Direct rendering" does, I'm not even sure it really is the problem, it's just something I caught up searching the forums. I also know my son has an ATI card and his glxinfo does say he has Direct rendering enabled. (He runs mdk 10.1 too). Doom3 runs quite good on his machine (although he has to keep the resolution down to 640x480, but that's no different from what he had to do when he still used winblows)

If it's an RPM, I'd say, give it a try. If it doesn't work you could alwasy uninstall it. And if you discovered that it didn't work, you could always try and extract the RPM and rebuild it for your kernel.

Well, I've done that now. But no luck. By using both the Load "/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libglx.so" # 3D layer Load "glx" lines, I still get GL-Extensions in Quake 3. But nothing changed in my output of glxinfo. And Doom3 still ain't working :-(

Well, thanks everybody. It worked and we now have ATI-accelerated graphics!

I've tried that, but then it won't even run Quake3 with GL Extensions....

I have my nVidia-driver installed correctly, everything works, glxgears and even Quake3 Arena. BUT: Doom3 doesn't :( I have an nVidia GeForce 4 Ti4200 (Abit Siluro) with the latest drivers (at least, the were the latest last week) Here's my output from glxinfo: $ glxinfo name of display: :0.0 display: :0 screen: 0 direct rendering: No server glx vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation server glx version string: 1.3 server glx extensions: GLX_EXT_visual_info, GLX_EXT_visual_rating, GLX_SGIX_fbconfig, GLX_SGIX_pbuffer, GLX_SGI_video_sync, GLX_SGI_swap_control, GLX_ARB_multisample client glx vendor string: SGI client glx version string: 1.2 client glx extensions: GLX_ARB_get_proc_address, GLX_ARB_multisample, GLX_EXT_import_context, GLX_EXT_visual_info, GLX_EXT_visual_rating, GLX_MESA_allocate_memory, GLX_MESA_swap_control, GLX_MESA_swap_frame_usage, GLX_OML_swap_method, GLX_OML_sync_control, GLX_SGI_make_current_read, GLX_SGI_swap_control, GLX_SGI_video_sync, GLX_SGIS_multisample, GLX_SGIX_fbconfig, GLX_SGIX_visual_select_group GLX extensions: GLX_ARB_get_proc_address, GLX_ARB_multisample, GLX_EXT_visual_info, GLX_EXT_visual_rating, GLX_SGI_swap_control, GLX_SGI_video_sync, GLX_SGIX_fbconfig OpenGL vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation OpenGL renderer string: GeForce4 Ti 4200 with AGP8X/AGP/SSE/3DNOW!

I've got everything working with my nVidia GeForce 4 Ti4200. Quake3 Arena works fine, and so does glxgears. But now I've tried to run Doom3. And it doesn't :( And it's only now I found out I DON'T have direct rendering according to glxinfo. But I haven't a clue about how to set it on...
