minthaka 0 Report post Posted May 6, 2008 Hi, I would like to play Sauerbraten Assassin Edition under 2008 Spring. I've installed all available SDL libraries and even succeeded to go through the installation's procedure, but when I try to play the game at the point of "Recalculating Geometry" shown in the corner, the X server crashes and I'm getting the login screen. The same troubles are with all the SDL driven games. What's wrong? [moved from Software by spinynorman - welcome aboard :)] Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ac_dispatcher 0 Report post Posted May 6, 2008 First question - do you have GLX working? (3d accel) open console (Konsole) type: glxinfo | grep direct see what is says. Also if you start the game via konsole you may get a hint of whats wrong from the output. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Greg2 5 Report post Posted May 8, 2008 Driver "ati" As ac_dispatcher has already noted, we need to see any error messages you have when you start it in a terminal. Do you have all the SDL packages installed that are listed in the readme.txt? What ATI card do you have? Have you tried using the fglrx driver? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
