GPL graphics problem.

by Han Monsee » Mon, 16 Aug 1999 04:00:00

Since I started using a creative VOODOO2 Banshee card (with
banshee-patch), I have the following strange probem:

every now and then (sometimes 3 times a lap, sometimes once in three
laps), the screen turns white for half a second, the sound is off during
that tine and the red line in the rev counter resets.

Has anyone the same problem and a fix??

PS: it happened in the original version and it happens in the updated
version.

greetings,

I was told it's a "clock smash" when I asked the same Q on here. When I asked
WTF _that_ is I was told its GPL synchronizing the game and the realtime clock
or something like that.

From what I've heard it happened in v1.0 online. Then they fixed that but
managed to introduce it in v1.1 offline instead. The fix would be v1.1.1...

Cheers,

FYI, there is no Voodoo2 Banshee card. CL makes a Voodoo2
card (which I have) and a separate Banshee card. Your problem
sounds like a driver problem though.
