Alright, here's the scoop.

I've been able to play the game quite happily after the last time I had to deal with the error:

Code:

Unsupported Video Card!

There are three possible causes for this error:
1. Your video card is too old.
2. You haven't installed the latest available drivers.
3. You haven't installed the latest DirectX version.

The first time, all I had to do was install the drivers off of http://ati.amd.com/ and I was fine. Second time, there were no new drivers for my card, so I just waited for the next update. This time around, there ARE new drivers, which I believe are installed.. but it's been a week and I'm itchy to start playing again.

lspci says this about my VGA controller:

Code:

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc M76 [Radeon Mobility HD 2600 Series]

Now, when I installed the new drivers, aticonfig --initial gave me some errors... but when I called customer support, all they told me was, "We dun' support Linucks... get help frum yer community."

Anyway, any help would be appreciated. I want to get back to gaming.
