Needless to say, this doesn't make me too happy. it's not something terrible, it doesn't break your fun if you know what to do, my problem is that in some programs OpenGL views is broken, you can see it in Blender (after minutes of work) then compare it with software renderer, it's getting worse if you develop your own app and you must switch to software rendered, becouse on tdfx OpenGL objects are not drawed properly (on TNT, software renderer or Win32 - they are) -- In the land of no tomorrow Where you pray just to end each day And your life just slowly melts away"Egypt (The Chains Are On)" - Ronnie James Dio ___ Dri-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dri-devel

Needless to say, this doesn't make me too happy. Yes, I have had the problem (kill GL spectrum analyzer window). When I killed the window, I killed xmms, too. Try out xmms-1.2.5.

I haven't seen OpenGL problems, but then again I am not a heavy OpenGL user.

RE: [Dri-devel] Tdfx (fwd)
The other reported tdfx problem is the one where changing resolutions can cause the X server to crash - happens on 4.1.0 and on late pre-4.1.0 DRI trunk. This is on a V5 5500 in my case. It is not easily reproducible, so I have not been able to get an X server log (it usually happens when in run level 5, and the automatic restart of the X server by gdm overwrites /var/log/XFree86.0.log) -- Manuel A.

Hi, I have still problems with the tdfx driver. I think it is a memory related problem. Te problem wasn't there in X 4.0.3 and before. So I'm asking what was changed? 'Cos I want use X 4.1.0 but I can't 'cos of this problem. And to Mike Harris, I think there is a patch for that problem, but only for RedHat rpm sources. Can I apply that patch (source is from XFree's ftp)? Thanks Simon ___ Dri-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dri-devel
