  • Hello all!
    Whenever I try to start nexuiz it just crashes x
    nexuiz version 2.2.3-1

    Ubuntu Feisty linux (metacity window manager)
    1.6GHz Pentium M
    1GB ram
    Intel 915GM graphics

    i suspect the issue has to do with my graphics card. how can i find out what the problem is?
    any help is appreciated.
    thanks!

  • Which graphics driver are you using?
    1. Open Notepad
    2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
    3. Save
    4. Open the file in Notepad again

    You can vary the number of "MS", so you can clearly see it's MS which is causing it.

  • i have xserver-xorg-videro-i740 and xserver-xorg-video-intel installed.

    i just noticed that tremulous also does not work, though it was working before. now it also crashes x on start up.
    maybe i'll uninstall the intel drivers and see what happens.

  • ok so i uninstalled xserver-xorg-video-intel and now both games work.
    my resolution is the wrong size and ratio but whatever.
    the 915resolution hack works to a certain extent.
    peace.
