Guest frew Posted October 12, 2002 Report Share Posted October 12, 2002 Right, so I have used ut before and it goes fine, not slow at all. But I recently reinstalled it and it is going REALLY slow. I have the nvidia drivers installed and I am sure they work as Rune works fine, and it is based upon ut. Anyone have any idea what might be wrong? Oh and by the way, the colors are REALLY psychadelic if that helps... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qeldroma Posted October 12, 2002 Report Share Posted October 12, 2002 Perhaps the X settings you have are incompatible with the framebuffer settings UT is trying?? I've got LM9 and the texstar NVIDIA-rpms, all is going well. Just downloaded the UT2003-demo and started it. Then i init3 and turned on 'X &' with a following 'export DISPLAY=":0" ', telling him where to find X.... I did that, to prevent my system beeing something slower because of a windowmanager ;) Try it that way, then you'll find out, what he did in "/var/logs/xfree4.0.log". Perhaps he's initialising 16Bit colordepth and you run UT with 32?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest frew Posted October 12, 2002 Report Share Posted October 12, 2002 well I would think it is something like that but Rune (which uses the same engine) works fine...I am angry... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hjlane3 Posted October 13, 2002 Report Share Posted October 13, 2002 do u have a AGP or PCI video card? ut2k3 will not run with a PCI video card, it needs to be an AGP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest frew Posted October 14, 2002 Report Share Posted October 14, 2002 it is an nvidia tnt2 it is an agp but the os sees it as a pci. and this is not ut2003 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falcdragon Posted October 24, 2002 Report Share Posted October 24, 2002 Try having a look at the UT config file under pathtoUT/system/ and using some of the tweaking guides on the the internet they'll work as well for UT settings under linux as they do under win.

Guest itti Posted October 24, 2002 Report Share Posted October 24, 2002 be sure to not use a newer nvidia driver version with an older card... on windows the best driver for a tnt2 is 15.30 get a driver that worked for you in the past Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glitz Posted October 24, 2002 Report Share Posted October 24, 2002 In the UT2003 linux readme it says that older TNT and TNT2 cards are not supported since they don't have S3TC hardware. Glitz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest frew Posted October 25, 2002 Report Share Posted October 25, 2002 this is the normal ut *not* 2k3. and the driver works fine for all other 3d programs. I am thinking about reinstalling. I upgraded instead of otherwise and that may be the root of the prob. thx anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
