Any chance of seeing Glide3 support? If you're using a Voodoo3 card or greater with the latest Xfree 4.x, you can't run Glide 2 stuff to my knowledge since the Glide/OpenGL drivers come from XFree's own built-in drivers with DRI support (and 3dfx's last driver set). You can't have both DRI and Mesa hardware at the same time, from what I've been told. If I try to run any OpenGL stuff using the Mesa libs, it is only software rendered here. Only the opengl driver that came with Xfree works.
Also Xmame.xgl used to run very fast with Xfree 3.x and older kernels and the voodoo3. Now it runs like 10fps with Xfree 4.x and my voodoo3 even though it calls the Xfree DRI driver. It says something about not being able to access the one driver directly and falling back to frame buffering or something like that (don't have output in front of me at the moment and I'm in Win98 right now). Even more weirdness with Voodoo3 cards... if you run something like the Lament OpenGL screensaver DIRECTLY, it runs fully accelerated in a window using DRI, but if you call it from Xscreensaver, it runs dog slow and won't run in a window either. --- Sven Goethel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > > Dear Vodoo Fans, > > regarding the latest Glide/Mesa library, > i have found the "bug" within the latest Glide/Mesa. > > naturally you are allowed since OpenGL 1.2 to > pass a NULL pointer to the glTexImage2D, > but the latest Glide/Mesa couple throws an > "segmentation fault" in this case. > > so here is the "stupid" fix, > which does not affect anything else than the > Glide/Mesa bug. > > enjoy > > i hope there are no sideeffect "features" .. > > cheers, sven > - -- > health & wealth > mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > www : http://www.jausoft.com ; pgp: > http://www.jausoft.com/gpg/ > voice : +49-521-2399440 ; fax : +49-521-2399442 > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- > Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) > Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org > > iD8DBQE8OFD0HdOA30NoFAARApwsAJ936ATNUBbnE2kmfSwF45oULnorPACfeBsN > p8AbZKGVnOVupivGBJY4WSY= > =v0UO > -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- > > [demime 0.98e removed an attachment of type > application/x-bzip2 which had a name of > xmame-0.57.1-xgl24.diff.bz2] > _______________________________________________ > Xmame mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > http://toybox.twisted.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/xmame __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
