I am seeing this too.. Interestingly enough Quake3 locks up withing a first minute of playing with no visible messages. I am often able to telnet it. However, Descent3 (started without multitexturing) is rock solid. Perhaps this helps someone.. Vladimir Dergachev On 8

Very interesting, I am using it with a AT power supply. I don't think that would be the problem, windows d3d works pretty well. It seems that the stability was better on the mach64 branch, amazingly though. Any possibility I can use the nvagp driver for my ati card? David Bronaugh wrote: >

Hi! I upgraded my G400 to Radeon 7500. In 2D the machine is rock stable as it was with G400 but with 3D the machines hangs up very often. For example RCTW hangs in a few secs (or up to 20 minutes or so). Is this a known problem? My system is X 4.2.0 with latest Alan dri package (from dri web si

I'm in the process of gathering all the interesting information on the Utah-GLX project to the FAQ. Their glossary (http://utah-glx.sourceforge.net/faq.html#AEN364) gives the definition of PIO, DMA and Pseudo DMA. The PIO definition presented there raises no polemics but I don't see what's diff
