GPL and G400

3 posts by 3 people · 24 Nov 1999 - 29 Nov 1999

The question has probably been popped before, but I have worked my but of, trying to get the Matrox G400 to work with GPL. No luck yet. I have tried the OpenGL Beta 2 but that really messes up the graphics, and crashes when initializing the race. Is there anybody out there who has got it to work ?? Or with a solution. I really miss this game. And driving it in software mode sucks, in these hardware accelerated days. -- Karsten Borchers Signing off................

Ditto G200. Tried various solutions but the closest I've got is a hardware-accelerated view of the pitlane, while I'm still at the options screen. 16fps in software is playable, *but*... Anyone? (If answers could be duplicated to email I'd appreciate it, as I don't always have time to scan this ng.) Jonny

Found a patch for G200 on Matrox' home page which I haven't tried yet, maybe it will work? I actually enjoyed software rendering on my 32" widescreen TV. Accelrated would be better of course. -- [asbjxrn] [lLd25z*%ds1-100/sLlSdI%ds2-O/sSl1l2*PlL0<l]sl 21172310731916131628237117 3237142523312SSSLllxq
