I don't know why this is happening, but here some things that might be |
| 19 |
worth checking: |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
Check if your graphics card is actually fully supported by |
| 22 |
ati-drivers-9.9; only HD2000/HD3000/HD4000 series cards are supported. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
Make sure ATI's OpenGL library is used instead of X.Org's: |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
eselect opengl set ati |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
Also make sure that your /etc/X11/xorg.conf contains this: |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
Section "DRI" |
| 31 |
Mode 0666 |
| 32 |
EndSection |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
Finally, make sure to rebuild all X drivers since you updated |
| 35 |
xorg-server. This should be a rather quick compilation; the drivers are |
| 36 |
small: |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
emerge -a1 `qlist -IC x11-drivers/` |
| 39 |
|
| 40 |
You need app-portage/portage-utils installed for "qlist" though. |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
Restart X. |
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
For what it's worth, I just installed bzflag here. I'm on AMD64, a |
| 45 |
Radeon HD4870, ati-drivers-9.10 (renamed ebuild of ati-drivers-8.660, |
| 46 |
which is a beta release of 9.10 released by Ubuntu, therefore the weird |
| 47 |
version and mask in portage), gentoo-sources-2.6.31. |
