Description Thomas Horsley 2005-09-07 01:06:24 UTC
Just for grins I was fooling around with games on my suse 10.0 beta4 system,
and the gl-117 air combat game starts up OK and does its calibration, then
when it is through with that, as soon as I move the cursor over one
of the "buttons" on the screen, my system freezes up solid, only the reset
button can recover.

The open GL chess interface also seems to have problems, but it doesn't
freeze the system, it merely dies as soon as I try to start a game.

I don't consider these problems, since I'm not actually interested in running
any open GL stuff, but I thought someone might like to know.

Possibly relevant information:

The is an old 850MHZ PIII system with a cheap (but fairly new) ATI 9200
agp graphics card running at 1280x768 resolution on a widescreen format
LCD display. The motherboard is an old abit BE6 II motherboard with a 440 BX
chipset.
