Click to See Complete Forum and Search --> : Can't get America's Army or UT2K3 working, here are errors...
When I run America's Army I get the splash screen and then it goes away so I decided to do it in terminal to debug. This is the error:
x2z@x2z:~$ armyops
Xlib: extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
Couldn't set video mode: Couldn't find matching GLX visual
History:
Exiting due to error
x2z@x2z:~$
I also get the same error when running ut2k3, anyone know what's wrong? These worked fine on winblows :(
Thanks,
Jason

can you execute glxgears successfully? Also, try to execute tuxracer. If neither of these work then it sounds like you have a problem with your openGL libraries.
Post your results from running glxinfo......
I had a similar problem, it seemed that if I ran tuxracer "windowed" its works fine. I had issues with the full screen run. I however, can run UT2003 full screen with no prob.

You didn't mention your Video Card...
Both these games use the same 3d engine which requires 3D Accleration, which you do not have (as proven with direct rendering: No)
Download the drivers for your card, install them and try again
nVidia drivers (http://nvidia.com)
ATI drivers (http://ati.com)
I don't have ATI or nVidia. I have an i815 (Intel) vid card. Both these games worked on windows though.
Do you all know where I could find what I need for my video card? I really want these games to work :(
