I really hope soDoes the Host have hardware OpenGL capabilities?
Code: Select all
lspci | grep ATI
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Unknown device 7196Yikes, does this mean the driver is the problem? :SATi cards for example still don't have proper hardware OpenGL features.
Yes, Settings -> Display -> Enable 3D AccelerationDid you enable 3D for the Guest?
Sorry, GA?Did you install the GA?
No, I was referring to the Open Source drivers. I am forced to use those because ATi decided to not support my card anymore (Mobility Radeon x1400). I really hate ATi for that. nVidia seems to be able to support their GeForce2 and TNT cards up to this day, why can't ATi do the same?VM-101 wrote:Yikes, does this mean the driver is the problem? :SATi cards for example still don't have proper hardware OpenGL features.
. If that runs fairly well, then you have OGL, if it doesn't run at all, you don't. Another thing you can test is to install a Linux VM and enable/install Compiz on it with the GA installed and 3D enabled. If you get a white screen or similar, then you don't have proper OpenGL. You've just been screwed by ATi. My x1400 gives the same problem. OpenGL just fine on the Host, but the VM can't use it. Mostly, because the OS drivers don't use direct hardware, which is needed.ashadocat wrote:I'm having the same trouble. I have an ati x1250 and the game in question is oni. I'm running the open source drivers, they work fine with compiz though, are they the problem? I can't use the proprietary drivers in there current state...
This is not true your card works with the fglrx 8.3 and the Nvidia legaci drivers are out of date to. And about the ATI OS Driver MostAwesomeDude is working on an the Gallium3D Driver for r3XX-r5xx so in the near Future you has OGL 2.1 or if the Hardware can this OGL3. And this is only possible because ATI provide Documentations and Developers to the Community and Nvidia does nothingSasquatch wrote:No, I was referring to the Open Source drivers.

and the OS Driver nv is an Joke.Fgrlx 8.3 does not work on Jaunty, nor any new kernels. So yes, I'm screwed by them.Nille02 wrote:This is not true your card works with the fglrx 8.3 and the Nvidia legaci drivers are out of date to.

You are not forced to use ubuntu 9.4 or higher. and it was known that the fglrx in jaunty doenst support you card anymore.Sasquatch wrote:Fgrlx 8.3 does not work on Jaunty, nor any new kernels. So yes, I'm screwed by them.
