I haven't had a chance to ssh in again and check CPU usage, but absolutely nothing happens to the screen or input when I kill the game. > You could try to set the environment variables RADEON_NO_CODEGEN, > RADEON_NO_VTXFMT and RADEON_TCL_FORCE_DISABLE in this order to > successively disable driver features and see if that makes a difference.

I would have tried this earlier, but Quake III works for hours and hours with TCL enabled, and I therefore assumed that there was no problem with TCL. --Jonathan Thambidurai ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by:Crypto Challenge is now open!
