When I try to start:



./nwn

Error



The NWN forum says this has to do with impropper initialisation of opengl subsystem. ? clues someone ? It's a R250 card with ~3 weeks old trunk snapshot.

You need this patch http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=2054806&forum_id=7177 for nwn to work (unless you're using the beta 3 client or older, you definitely need it for 1.29, haven't checked for 1.30 if it's still needed). Unfortunately this patch is not yet in the trunk as it might break other things. Seems like a chicken-and-egg problem, if it's not in the trunk almost nobody (except those people who need it to get something running) tests it, but without testing it won't make it into the trunk ;-). For the record, the patch runs fine here. Oh and if you make it past the Error, you might want to use R200_NO_TCL=1 as there are some issues with NWN - or try updating dri, the bugs might get fixed...


How many people need to report that this patch works and has no negative
side effects before it gets merged in?

I'm OK with this going in. We're generally pretty good at committing patches, but sometimes they slip through. Try reposting with a [PATCH] designator to make it obvious that there's something that needs consideration, etc.


Anyway, I'm going to hold off until Ian's issue is resolved.
