Hello, I recently upgraded ati-drivers to 9.9-r2 also to xorg-server-1.6.3.901-r2 bzflag fails to run from the kde menu. trying to launch it from the command line yields: X Error of failed request: BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation) Major opcode of failed request: 129 (GLX) Minor opcode of failed request: 19 (X_GLXQueryServerString) Serial number of failed request: 13 Current serial number in output stream: 13 So I ran 'equery depgraph --depth=1 bzflag' and got: [ Searching for packages matching bzflag... ] * dependency graph for games-action/bzflag-2.0.12 `-- games-action/bzflag-2.0.12 `-- net-misc/curl-7.19.6 `-- sys-libs/ncurses-5.6-r2 `-- net-dns/c-ares-1.5.3 `-- virtual/opengl-7.0 (virtual/opengl) [ sdl ] `-- virtual/glu-7.0 (virtual/glu) [ sdl ] `-- media-libs/libsdl-1.2.13-r1 [ sdl ] `-- =media-libs/svgalib-1.4.2 (unable to resolve to a package / package masked or removed) `-- =media-libs/svgalib-1.4.2 (unable to resolve to a package / package masked or removed) `-- media-libs/glew-1.5.1 [ sdl ] `-- x11-libs/libICE-1.0.4 [ sdl ] `-- x11-libs/libSM-1.1.0 [ sdl ] `-- x11-libs/libX11-1.1.5 [ sdl ] `-- x11-libs/libXau-1.0.4 [ sdl ] `-- x11-libs/libXdmcp-1.0.2 [ sdl ] `-- x11-libs/libXext-1.0.4 [ sdl ] `-- x11-libs/libXi-1.2.1 [ sdl ] `-- x11-libs/libXmu-1.0.4 [ sdl ] `-- x11-libs/libXt-1.0.5 [ sdl ] `-- x11-libs/libXxf86vm-1.0.2 [ sdl ] [ games-action/bzflag-2.0.12 stats: packages (18), max depth (1) ] hm, Since svgalib lists like this: media-libs/svgalib Available versions: *1.9.25 I'm looking for a little advice on what I should do next.

[gentoo-user] bzflag worbles after recent upgrades to workstation
Hello,
I'm pulling out my hair here. BZflag-2.0.12 use to work great
on Gentoo. The kernel (1.6.27-r7-gentoo) has not changed.
However for about a week now, after a bunch of updates,
xrog*, evdev etc etc, it has very high lag and jitter
over the net.
I can reboot the same system and play bzflag on XP pro
just fine. It use to work great on gentoo, but now
it lags so bad I get booted after a few second on the game
bandwidth is fine (cable modem).
X use to run up the load bad when the problem first occured,
but now that does not seem to happen.
I've rebuild everything I can think of, to no avail.
From /usr/portage/games-action/bzflag/bzflag-2.0.12.ebuild
it only seems to use a few things:
UIDEPEND=virtual/opengl
virtual/glu
media-libs/libsdl
media-libs/glew
x11-libs/libICE
x11-libs/libSM
x11-libs/libX11
x11-libs/libXau
x11-libs/libXdmcp
x11-libs/libXext
x11-libs/libXi
x11-libs/libXmu
x11-libs/libXt
x11-libs/libXxf86vm
DEPEND==net-misc/curl-7.15.0
sys-libs/ncurses
net-dns/c-ares
sdl? ( ${UIDEPEND} )
!sdl? ( !dedicated? ( ${UIDEPEND} ) )
I have these installed:
ati-drivers 8.561
Xorg-server 1.5.3-r1
xf86-input-evdev 2.1.1
xorg-x11 7.4
kde-meta 3.5.9
On the same hardware, rebooted to XP pro, it's just fine.
Any ideas what to try or mask to get this working again?

[gentoo-user] bzflag
Hello, I have bzflag working on several systems(yea, it's the new rage around the office and with the kids in the hood). But, for some reason it just dies on a amd64 with an ATI-1900 XT card. I just got the ati-drivers happy on this system. When I fire up bzflag, it takes control of the screen for a fraction of a second. I've looked in /var/log/messages and /var/log/Xorg.0.log but nothing there. How do I debug this? Both version 2.0.4 and 2.0.8 exhibit the same symptoms. ideas?

Have you made sure you enabled/disabled the proper modules in /etc/X11/xorg.conf and followed the howto? http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/dri-howto.xml Justin -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
[gentoo-user] bzflag runs then crashes
Hello, I have bzflag running quite nicely on a portable (intel 3GHz p4) with gentoo. I'm trying to get bzflag [Installed: 2.0.8] running an [AMD Athlon(TM) XP 2400+) with 1.5 M or ram. Both the 2.0.8 and the 2.0.4 versions crash with the same symptoms, so it seems like the problem is not with bzflag, but in how glx/aiglx/dri/x/kde/whatever is set up. Video card is:[GeForce2 MX/MX 400] It runs but crashes after about 10 seconds. Is there a log I should look at for any detailed information as to why it crashes? When It crashes it kills off the entire kde login session, and put the kdm login-in screen back up on the system. The OS does not reboot the machine, just kde. It could be the nvidia driver and aiglx or the underlying kernel (2.6.17-gentoo-r8) being messed up. The only error message I get in /var/log/messages is: Nov 12 20:55:48 crystal kde(pam_unix)[7491]: session opened for user james by (uid=0) Nov 12 20:59:16 crystal kdm[6629]: X server for display :0 terminated unexpectedly Nov 12 20:59:16 crystal kde(pam_unix)[7491]: session closed for user james Nov 12 20:59:16 crystal agpgart: Found an AGP 3.5 compliant device at :00:00.0.
