Re: [newbie] Open Universe and nVidia drivers - FIXED
Mcleod, Ian [EMAIL PROTECTED] saith: Good to hear. I sometimes edit text files as non-root and did not pay attention to the warning message - hence the file remained unchanged although I swear I changed it. It sounds like you had already changed it though? Ya, I was playing Tux games not 10 days ago. Do you know how to get Open Universe to work in normal time? It always warps on me and I can't get it to go real time. Press 'e'. I have another oddity, though. Tux has always run full-screen in the past. Now it's running at 640x480 (or 800x600?) but the monitor resolution doesn't change from 1280x1024. Wait a minute--I just remembered I was messing with monitor settings last week. I bet I accidentally changed the video card while I was doing that. And my monitor resolution is better (the frequency that is), but I had to do a custom setting to accomplish it. I bet the custom setting is preventing TuxRacer from going full-screen. That sux. I'll have to play with more flexible monitor settings, I guess.
