Hi,
Just installed RedHat 7.2.
I have a ATI Rage Fury card, it's already accelerated the X-server
automatically for me and things "seem" to work upon install, though I've
not tried OpenGL programs.
I checked all I know with xdpyinfo, checking the libGL.so etc. to make
sure support is in there, but when I run perfly esprit.flt, it doesn't
really say much (even at level of debug of 7), just says
can't get a visual. It's NULL or something (the visual), Perfly seems to
core dump, but I don't see a core left lying around.
I did look at the output left in /var/log from the X-server startup, it
recognizes my card, says it's accelerated and all. I don't see anything
blatantly wrong. I tried to give it a specific visual
(perfly) a bunch I tried none worked either.
I was having a hard time trying to tell how many "bits of color" (bpp)
the X-server was started with, and whether that mattered for starting
perfly. Maybe I have the default set to a non compatible
bpp?
Does anyone know of problems with RH 7.2, performer 2.4.2 RPMS
downloaded from SGI site?
