Re: Unreal Tournament 2004 Demo



Just recently I downloaded the Unreal Tournament 2004 Demo for Linux. Uncompressing it was relatively smooth, but when I tried to run the program, I got this error message:

Xlib:  extension "XiG-SUNDRY-NONSTANDARD" missing on display ":0.0".
Either GL_EXT_bgra or glDrawRangeElements not supported- bailing out.

History:
Exiting due to error


I tried to look for solutions online, but I didn't find anything that helped me fix this error.

I am currently running Debian 2.4.24
I'm using a NVIDIA GeForce 4 MX 440 128MB as my video card.
I also have 512 RAM.
If you are using kernel 2.4.24, you are probably using XFree 4.3.x. The easiest way to get the nvidia drivers to work with XFree 43.x is to use the debian packages of the installer, rather than the nvidia installer (which you should uninstall first). The debian packages are either in non-free or contrib and you will need:

nvidia-kernel-common
nvidia-glx
nvidia-kernel-source

These packages contain the same driver version as the nvidia installer. For set up instructions after the packages are installed, read
/usr/share/doc/nvidia-kernel-source/README.Debian

Hope this helps
Johnny.
