I'm at the point where I can't run FlightGear anymore. The Linux nVidia drivers for the TNT2 are as buggy as they can get and cause constant lockups. I've tried 3 versions of drivers and it makes no difference (currently using 4496). The CVS version I checked out yesterday gives me guaranteed lockups within 5 minutes (about 2 minutes if I take off from KSJC and head in any direction) When I mean lockups I'm talking about hit-the-hardware-reset-button type of lockups.
I also notice strange phenomenon like the sky flashing between normal sky textures and black. Good thing I don't suffer from epilepsy. ;) I know it's not a FlightGear problem - blender also locks up my PC when I try to render stuff. nVidia don't seem to be bothered about fixing anything pre GF4 so the only solution I see is to get another video card. Can someone recommend a nVidia based card that works flawlessly with FG? I'm on a tight budget so I'm looking at the low end cards. Does FG run well on a FX 5200?
