How come I can? I can with my Diamond Viper 770..it works fine. The only thing I have run into with nVidia or XFree86 4.X.X is that after I upgraded to 4.0.3 .. Quake3 stopped working and kills X everytime. I was told to get the latest drivers from nVidia, but this didn't help. Every other 3D game I have works ..but not Q3A.

=> => So some of our cards may have the wrong BIOS loaded on them. That may be why =>they work so bad. => Or why in my case the card works fine. It might be good to check out the site of the company that made the cards and see if they have a different bios revision the cards could be flashed with. I know Diamond has flashable video card bios. -- Ben Rosenberg mailto:ben@whack.org ----- If two men agree on everything, you can be sure that only one of them is doing the thinking.

Hi, Since upgrading to 4.0.3 shifting to console works for me. As for Q3, I have no problems so far. Only some random pieces of the screen flashing with the geforce DDR when playing in mode depth 32 bit, texture 32 bit trilinear, highest texture details. I don't have these with the geforce Ultra. I installed the latest .gz drivers. Cheers, Filip. Le Samedi 31 Mars 2001 02:14, vous avez écrit :
