Subject: RE: [SLE] "Signal Out Of Range" during game startup
Hello, Daniel.
I seem to think that I saw something about this on the Nvidia site. They
have a problem in Heavy Gear 2 when it switches resolutions. The game does
this when going from the menu to the game. Therefore it is currently
unplayable. If you have an Nvidia card, you might want to check section
6.6.6 (coincidence ?) of their Linux Drivers v0.9-5 README file. If you
don't have an Nvidia card, then this probably isn't much help.
Bye for now,
Stuart.

Subject: [SLE] "Signal Out Of Range" during game startup
<p>I have installed a copy of the Heavy Gear 2 Demo from Maximum Linux.
The game starts fine, sound, graphics work (both windowed and full
screen).
I am able to select a mission to start and after I hit launch, the
screen goes blank (it does this in both windowed and full screen) and I
get "Signal Out Of Range" floating on my monitor. It also displays
27.0 KHz 33.0 Hz.
Which makes sense (sort of) because my monitor, CTX PL9, has a
Horizontal range of 30-95KHz and a Vertical of 50-160Hz. So, yes, it
is out of range, but why is this game going there?
Is it something I'm not setting up in /etc/XF86Config or maybe
something specific with the game?
TIA,
Daniel
