Hi,

After a few days of wrestling, I finally was able to get
NwN (Linux version) running on my 5.1-RELEASE-p2 machine.
Direct rendering is working according to glxinfo, and glxgears
is speeding along at ~320 FPS.

Running on an AMD Athlon 2400+, 1 GB ram, ATI Rage 128 Pro.
Minimum requirements-wise, I should be fine, but the game
itself is running at < 1 FPS. Updating to the latest client
release didn't help.

There were no errors during XFree startup (at least no (EE) lines
are in /var/log/XFree86.0.log)

Has anyone else had this problem?

Thanks,

Mike


Here is an abbreviated version of my XF86Config file. I'm no wizard
with this thing, so I certainly could be missing something. Thanks again.
