For me it looks just same what installer it comes with. Only what I want is it just to work with my and others system well.

Ok. Finally got the beta5 running with ati-drivers. Did some major adjustments with my computers drivers compiled them again and adjusted xorg.conf, but I think it was worth it... hope I'll never need to do it again. Also I found a bug that is with windows mode.... When you start it when mouse point...

I've never had those matching, still 3d works well with other applications (well as well as DRI supports

When I try to start the game, it segfaults. I'm getting also segfault when starting with ati-drivers. This segfault comes with both betas 4f and 5. Before those versions game has worked well. Game get's initialized and few seconds of sounds gets played, but then it crashes: VERSION : linux-demo-bet...

Out of curiousity, from your first post I can see that it gets some initialization done... does the window pop up? Is anything displayed? Yes blank window pop ups (when running in windowed mode) and after that it crashes. In console it writes: CLIENT : Requesting Team... Darwinia has unexpectedly e...

The same bug as this with 4d exists with 4f too.

Still not fixed in beta5.

When I turn on the pixel effect with open radeon r100 dri drivers I find the frame rate drops from 50 to 7 FPS. With nvidia drivers (and very different card) it drops from 78 to 68. This may be normal and not a bug, I do not know. Umm... So you got the game running with ATI DRM-drivers? What graphi...

Interesting. Please could you post the output of glxinfo for interest. name of display: :0.0 display: :0 screen: 0 direct rendering: Yes server glx vendor string: SGI server glx version string: 1.2 server glx extensions: GLX_ARB_multisample, GLX_EXT_visual_info, GLX_EXT_visual_rating, GLX_EXT_impor...

Is that with your: ATI Technologies Inc RV280 [Radeon 9200] (rev 01) Also, please could you try a 2.6.x kernel (you'll need to upload your sysinfo and download again) just to check if it is a 2.4.x DRM issue? With 2.6.9-r10 -kernel with DRM I got this: XIO: fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset ...

Maybe this isn't a bug, but it's very odd feature.

This seems to be fixed in 4d.

It seems there is something wrong with one row in research-menu.

That same bug appears every time in both 4c and 4d. I'm using ati binary drivers.

In the options menu there are many entries for each resolution, probably for refresh which darwinia shouldnt be changing anyway. The refresh option should be removed from the linux version. Actually it shouldn't be removed, because you can change from there what resolution game will use (if only it...

Yes. It's registered in windows-betatesting too as a bug.
