Just tested again with Intrepid and a Voodoo Banshee (PCI), Voodoo3 2000 (PCI), and a Voodoo3 3000 (AGP). OpenArena and Tremulous both fail if most any video setting is changed. When the settings are changed in either game they go through a shutdown (switching back to the desktop) then a re-init (SDL_Init) process. Tremulous never loads the GUI at this point while OpenArena loads to a corrupted screen. After the failures Tremulous CPU usage is at about 50% while OpenArena is near 90% (both normal for this K6-2 500MHz system). When killed from a terminal both seem to have an orderly shutdown. Chromium (non-Quake related) works normally except for some graphics anomalies with the "sound fx volume" menu item. rss_glx screensavers are normal (i.e. ugly by most modern video card standards).
Note: I'm passing the 3dfx cards I have off to someone on the mesa mailing list so I won't be able to provide more info or test results than the logs I'm attaching now. ** Attachment added: "Voodoo_Banshee-Tremulous.log" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/19847127/Voodoo_Banshee-Tremulous.log -- Quake engine games freeze if video settings changed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/214439 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
