X3: Reunion

[pete910]

Anybody else get issues with X3 failing to detect you have a vid card/driver?

Tried LGP's ticket but no response samr goes for the emails.

Are they on holiday?

Anyway The game installed fine etc, However when I try to start it says
"Error opening video. There is no vesa driver installed, or your graphics adapter doesn't support the resolution"

Reading the cli output says "Couldn't find sufficient depth buffer to run the game!"

Tried the usual things, runs ET:QW/UT2004/doom3 n the like fine.

Any ideas?

Mandriva 2009 spring
Kernel: 2.6.29 /32 bit
KDE 4.2/Gnome 2.26 Tried both with/without 3d desktop! A
MD Athlon xp64 3700
1gb memory NV 7800 GTX(256) / 180.51+ 173.xx drivers

pete910,

What's your Xorg configuration?
(I don't work for LGP; Though during the beta phase, I did install X3 on a number of machine with different hardware configuration [in-order to test it] and never cam across your problem)

Oh, have you used to the LGP_Update utility to update to the latest version?

Have sorted it now!

Its the DKMS package that is used to install/build the driver for various things in 2009.

Installed the NVIDIA driver from Nvidia's site and that sorted it.

I would inform LGP but the ticket system goes blank if I try to access a raised ticket
