OpenGL update for Ubuntu?

[Madventurer]

When I hit "Play" button, the game just close down.

In "error_log" it says:

[GameClient][game_client.cpp(616)] Needed OpenGL extensions not found:

Texture Compression (GL_ARB_texture_compression)
S3TC textures (GL_EXT_texture_compression_s3tc)
S3TC textures (GL_S3_s3tc)


If you know your video card support this capabilities,
try updating your video drivers to the last available version.
[Game][game_client.cpp(518)] Engine3D::Renderizer::get_active_renderizer()->finish_graphics_system()

Where I can download these updates? I have ATI Mobility Radeon X1400 512mb graphic card, and Ubuntu 6.06 LTS system.

I am getting the same error using a nvidia card. And the Nvidia drivers. On Ubuntu 7.04

Uhm... How I can check it? I am not very familar with Linux :\

[Myxir]

The package xorg-driver-fglrx must be installed.
Additionally you must check if a section in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf looks like this:

Section "Device"
	Identifier	"ATI Technologies, Inc. Radeon X550 XT"
	Driver		"fglrx"
	BusID		"PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection

if not, replace radeon with fglrx after you installed it

Got the same problem on an intel 945gm.
and regarding your question: I get a :

glxinfo |grep direct
direct rendering: Yes

So seems to be all right. But i get the same error-message In the error_log.txt, as the thread-starter.

Afaik i got all packages installed correctly - so anyone's got a good guess ?

If you use Debian or a Debian-based distribution, you can install driconf with apt-get install driconf (if your distribution does not have it you can download it from http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/DriConf
and compile yourself)
You can then use the program to enable S3TC texture compression extensions. Start driconf. Add Regnum Online as a new application. Select Add Setting->Image Quality->Enable S3TC->set it to Yes.
Now it could/should work
