what problems do you have with the demo? i tried the demo and have now the full-version and have no problem.

I need a new Video Card in order to play

well, i have a geforce 2 gts. it's very slow, but it works

I got it to run no prob

need glx though.

I have the same problem -

LindowsOS 2.0
1.15 GHZ AMD
386MB RAM
Radeon 7000 "Not Supported for UT2003 :cry: "

Its because glx is not installed properly.

if you open terminal, and run ./ut2003_demo, you will get a log regarding your problem most likely GLX extension is missing

Pleeeease: If you have an error message: POST IT. Perhaps someone can see the error immediately, but without an error message one can often just guess.

Your right seb I have a GLX error pop up when I run it in a terminal. But I have the latest nvidia drivers installed so what is it that I need to do to remedy the situation?

Download either the correct RPM for your system or the source code file. In case of XFree 4.0.1 you will require the source code file by all means, since NVIDIA doesn't supply a RPM for the XFree 4.0.1 driver. The procedure is super easy with the source code file, so there's no reason not to use it. After the download unpack the file in a directory of your choice.


Before you 'make' the driver you need to check a few things. You need to remove or rename several of the possibly installed Mesa files that interfere with NVIDIA's OpenGL driver:

/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libGLcore.a
/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libglx.a
/usr/lib/libGL.so
/usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so.*
/usr/X11R6/lib/libGLcore.so.*

After you've done that type 'make' and almost all things should be taken care of. In my case there was one problem with the file '/usr/lib/libGL.so.1', being a symbolic link to a Mesa file, although I had renamed it earlier. Best you change the symbolic link to the newly installed NVIDIA OpenGL driver file '/usr/lib/libGL.so.1.0.4' and you should be set.


If you can find any 'libMesaGL.so.*' or 'libMesa.so.*' files in 'usr/lib' or 'usr/X11R6/lib' make symbolic links out of them, pointing to the NVIDIA OpenGL driver file '/usr/lib/libGL.so.1.0.4'.


Finally, you want to modify '/etc/X11/XF86Config' . Replace the line 'Driver "nv"' in the 'Section "Device"' to 'Driver "nvidia"'. If it's not already in there, please add 'Load "glx"' in the 'Section "Module"', to enable 3D!

considering you have already installed the nvidia drivers, i am not sure if you can under to conflicts

Where can I find ??? Is it hard to install for a newbie???
Thanks a lot for your help .
Bye, and see you later.

Sorry, it was me ... I forgot to login :oops:.

The only computer I have with a decent gfx card is a laptop with a Radeon.

Look around at nvidia.com for the linux drivers they are there....

BTW, it runs pretty good once you get that taken care of, very happy with the demo, now to buy the full version.

I went on the website: www.nvidia.com, but I can only see 2 different versions of drivers ... ans so I don't know which one I must choose ... (I don't want to make a bad mistake). My graphic card is a GeForce 3 64Mb from Asus.
Which one do you think I should take to be able to play games like UT2003 under Linux Mandrake 9.0???
Thanks a lot for your help .
Bye, and see you later.

Hi,
you need a glx driver and a kernel driver.
Download them here: http://www.nvidia.com/view.asp?IO=linux_display_1.0-3123
Be sure that you get the right one's

Hi, I have tried the demo and then purchased the full version of it. It works as a dream.

Using the following Hardware/Software:

SMP 2.3Mhz AMD
Nvidia GForce4 Ti4600 128MB
4GB RAM
Suse8.1
KDE3.1


I've got my Nvidia Drivers from:

http://frankie.0c3.net/nVidiaDrivers/Linux/XFree86_40/1.0-3123/

rpm -Uvh filename.rpm --> Kernel first then GLX

Let me know if it works now!
