Broken Screen at Startup (SVN 3238M)
« on: September 03, 2006, 12:49:14 pm »
I've used the SVN sources,compiled them,build the maps and so on.
On startup the screen is first blank with cursor and then becomes green with nice pattern(like magnified circles).If I move the mouse around,from time to time,it changes a bit.Sound is clear and fine.
Is this a know bug from a "first-time-self-svn-builder-but-being-stupid-at-all-guy" ;) or is this "simply" broken?

SVN 3238M
SuSE 10.1
GL_VERSION: 2.0.5946 (8.27.10)
ref_gl version: GL 0.12
XFree86-VidModeExtension Version 2.2

Are you using vanilla Xorg drivers? Or do you have ATi/Nvidia binary drivers installed.

I had to install the binary drivers to get it working on my AMD64 Ubuntu system. However, you could try reverting to "sdl" video acceleration:
Code: [Select]
$./ufo +set vid_ref sdl

Tried that,but didn't worked for me.Screen is the same.

Hardware:
AMD 1800,768MB RAM
ATI Saphire (RV350 AR [Radeon 9600])
Software:
fglrx_6_9_0_SUSE101-8.27.10-1
xorg-x11-server-6.9.0-50.20
kernel-default-2.6.16.21-0.13
(Packages by SuSE or ATI,nothing self-compiled)

2.0-RC4 is running fine!

If someone want's to,I can send a screenshot by mail.

Ok, you might have tried this already, but even if you have, could you update to the latest SVN ("svn up") and then go to the src directory and issue: "make clean && make && make lang" then retest? Probably won't fix anything but let's make sure :)

SVN 3270M made it.The screen seems to be ok now. :lol:
Hmm,isn't the make file strict enough to prevent such things like "make clean" before incremental build?  :?
