annoying graphic card check

Franz1789 · 06-15-2011, 12:16 PM

How could I avoid the graphic card check after log in? I'm using nouveau driver and I heard that they're having good performance, but they're not recognized by RO. Is there a config file where I can set not to look for a graphic card?

What graphics card do you use?

Are you using default nouveau drivers?
Did this problem occure when you were using the NVIDIA drivers as well?

-------- Edit

Nouveau = regular desktop activities including web surfing, watching videos, 2D games (not using OpenGL). As far as I know they dont support 3D at all.

They do, with mesa gallium 3d was introduced in open source driver for nvidia and ati. I need a way to avoid the control, what ngd did to help people is for me a pain in the ass

You need to enable S3TC texture compression using driconf.
You wouldn't be able to actually start the game even though you bypassed that warning anyway, since the game relies on the S3TC extension.

if want to play on Fedora 15 with my ATI card without proprietary drivers, I have to install the library libtxc_dxtn which is in the additional rpmfusion repo. Then the game graphic is only ok if force safe mode is used, otherwise naked chars and other issues

Did what you told, but in archlinux

simply installing libtxc_dxtn from AUR, and libpng12 (also from aur) regnum online goes very very well. Ok, it's safe mode (or it won't even start) but I got ~70 fps, and I can play without that fuuuuu***** nvidia blob
