ah sry i mean , is that right now?

man i'm pretty silly :/ : how to elegantly delete the xorg.conf file, without dealing with permissions... googling it always says i should be very careful with the "rm" command?

so: ?

To disable vsync on opengl edit ".drirc" on $HOME direcotry. cat ~/.drirc <option name="vblank_mode" value="0"/> can you translate this into beginner-code please? i tried to open this file with sudo gedit /home/leviathan/.drirc but it opened a blank file!? what does &q...

ok so these two options didn't work and i went into synaptic-packet-tool and found out that i obviously have drivers for the "i810" installed but "i910" is somehow missing in the list. see the screenshot: http://www.ulodric.de/files/6453596545.png i still wont give up, as i feel...

with i910 black screen again. here the log: [ 47.427] X.Org X Server 1.9.0 Release Date: 2010-08-20 [ 47.427] X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0 [ 47.427] Build Operating System: Linux 2.6.24-27-server i686 Ubuntu [ 47.427] Current Operating System: Linux ubuntubook 2.6.35-22-generic #35-Ubuntu SMP S...

here the log for an attempt with i810 exactly with the lines of cobra_fast, i got a black screen again: Section "Device" Identifier "Card0" Driver "i810" BusID "PCI:0:2:0" Option "XAANoOFFscreenPixmaps" EndSection the log: [ 34.569] X.Org X Server 1....

changing the video format was no big of a change.. at 800x600 i had 42 fps instead of 30. and with the black stripes on the side its not really an option for me but worth trying. i created a xorg.conf file and got totally different lines , see my device section here: Section "Device" ### A...

seems like we have something like a consensus. to sum up the last 3 answers: i need to create a xorg.conf file and write in a statement to disable vsync, at least i could try this. right?! one thing confuses me though: if i create that file like this easy-looking guide http://www.osguides.net/operat...

to blast: Just to confirm, does it show "Mesa DRI Intel(R) 945GM GEM 20100330 DEVELOPMENT x86/MMX/SSE2" as the OpenGL renderer at the bottom of the screen when you start BZFlag? yes it does to cobra_fast: first of all, i cant even see the xorg.conf file... i typed: sudo gedit /etc/X11/xor...

ok now this could be a sign: i opened system->administration-> "additional" drivers (i couldn't find "hardware" drivers) and the output is this: http://www.ulodric.de/files/6452105040.png which means in english: no proprietary (synoymous to "unfree" as i found out) driv...

glxinfo here, hope that it contains necessary info :) leviathan@ubuntubook:~$ glxinfo name of display: :0.0 display: :0 screen: 0 direct rendering: Yes server glx vendor string: SGI server glx version string: 1.4 server glx extensions: GLX_ARB_multisample, GLX_EXT_import_context, GLX_EXT_texture_fro...

huhu bz family after looking through so many forums and not finding any good tips, i thought i give the bzflag forums a try. i think a lot of you players, and especially you developers and administators are using linux, so please give a brandnew mac-switcher some tips. my problem: switched to ubuntu...

when i first come into the duc league it felt like i joined a completely new game. the league experience is in my opinion far superior to public playing. the most important reason for that is of course the interaction with other players. and this is a large subject since i count making friends and d...

ts is right but even more important is to stay at one size.
i think one can only be good in both dodging AND aiming if one uses the same size for a longer time and gets accustomed to it very well.

best wishes

hey dt any thoughts on launching a new contest? just for me for i couldnt participate in the last one!

cheers levi

you are right
i sometimes try to convince peeps to come with me open up dub 50 or brad 55, too
another strange thing is that there is so much demand on this map (see borrego) but its league is kinda inactive compared to this.

see ya at pb:european servers

hey all i also would prefer a break. its a question of glory to the champion! no break would just lead to everybody is playing on without knowing who won. its partially the same in the 1v1 league... the length: i heard its partially a question of programming. like its way easier to code it with the ...

does a soccer team that runs e.g. 0:3 behind give up?
why cant we leave the matches as they are... 30 minutes... the better team makes more points and wins...

cya all

hey tanks i voted for 30 minutes only because i think a match is a match and has to be 30 minutes. i think this is some kind of rule. would be the same if you cut a soccer match, witch is 90 minutes long, down to 60 or even 45 minutes. next thing is that there might be long dicussions before every m...
