arlick,
Nice Article!!! thanks Karma for you! no no ... no my intention to start a flame war either. However I dont want to lead a Linux user down the road and hassle of a format/reinstall if it really will not help the problem they face. Like in this case, the video hardware in question is intel based which is known to not perform well in Linux... How frustrated would this person have been to change distro's and find he still faces the same problem? Perhaps there is a reason they've choose the distro they are running?.. etc etc . This is where I was coming from In any case.. I can see where the upgrade to Ibex could reduce performance as it packs a lot more.... well... bloat lol. However for my hardware I have not noticed a drop in performance.. In fact - The ATI driver that ships with Ibex is faster for me on my Laptop. Anyways, back on topic and again, Thanks for the article -onemyndseye |

I do experience the "card is too old problem" (ubuntu 8.10, Intel 945GM).
I tried the preceeding instructions, but when after the "make" command, I got the following errors : Code:
cc -Wall -pedantic -fPIC -O3 -c -o txc_compress_dxtn.o txc_compress_dxtn.c In file included from txc_compress_dxtn.c:27: txc_dxtn.h:25:19: error: GL/gl.h: No such file or directory In file included from txc_compress_dxtn.c:27: txc_dxtn.h:27: error: expected ‘=’, ‘,’, ‘;’, ‘asm’ or ‘__attribute__’ before ‘GLchan’ txc_dxtn.h:35: error: expected ‘)’ before ‘srcRowStride’ txc_dxtn.h:37: error: expected ‘)’ before ‘srcRowStride’ txc_dxtn.h:39: error: expected ‘)’ before ‘srcRowStride’ txc_dxtn.h:41: error: expected ‘)’ before ‘srcRowStride’ txc_dxtn.h:44: error: expected ‘)’ before ‘srccomps’ txc_compress_dxtn.c:37: error: expected ‘)’ before ‘*’ token txc_compress_dxtn.c:229: error: expected ‘)’ before ‘*’ token txc_compress_dxtn.c:347: error: expected ‘)’ before ‘*’ token txc_compress_dxtn.c:402: error: expected ‘)’ before ‘*’ token txc_compress_dxtn.c:415: error: expected ‘)’ before ‘*’ token txc_compress_dxtn.c:737: error: expected ‘)’ before ‘srcpixels’ txc_compress_dxtn.c:753: error: expected ‘)’ before ‘srccomps’ A way to solve the proble ? Or a way to get rid of the "the card is too old" problem ? Thank you in advance |

I still ge this error..about the video card being too old.
I followed the instructions to build the latest "ibtxc_dxtn" driver. Running kubuntu 2.6.27-8-generic #1 SMP on x86_64 using my built in motherboard graphics. Motherboard is GA-MA78G-DS3H which has "Integrated ATI Radeon HD3200 graphics (DirectX10)" . Blender is nice and fast... what other info can I provide to get this bug fixed? |
