OpenSUSE Hardware :: Slow Graphics - OpenGL Does Not Work
Feb 14, 2010
I have installed Suse Linux 11.2 and I had problem with graphics, when I moved windows there were many lines showing, I have installed an original driver for it and now instead of lines moving windows is very slow. When I try to activate compositing with flip with it gives an error and OpenGL does not work. Only XRender works and windows are faster but scrolling is still slow.
My Graphics Card: ATI Radeon HD 4570
Installed Driver: ATI Radeon HD 4500 Series

I just manually updated my opensuse 11.2 installation. This update included the xorg-x11-driver-video-radeonhd driver from version 1.3.0_20091026 to 1.3.0_20100216. As a result now all graphics operations are very slow, eg. redrawing a large window takes around 1sec when moving it to another position. With the old driver is was very smooth. Vlc previously worked very well, now it is not possible to watch a video even with a low resolution. I use a Radeon HD 3200 GFX chip which is on the motherboard (Asus) and additionally I have a separate GFX card (Radeon 3870) in the PCI-E slot which I don't use on Linux - just for gaming on Windows.

Just installed slackware-13, and sorting issues. I actually have googleearth running - just.It's telling me it's using opengl, but opengl is absolutely cat on this box I have ATI RS690M with the radeonhd driver on my laptop. Opengl is terribly slow. Videos stall, but I move them withmplayer -vo sdl <my_video>/end backgroundAnything I can do with Google earth?o option to swap. fglrx is crap on opengl.

When using the very nice opengl screensavers, rss-glx, etc. the screensavers are very choppy.I tried modifying my xorg.conf but still no go.Anyway to get the rss-glx screensavers to run at normal speed?I read online that Intel disable the hardware acceleration.This is a work laptop but I just wanted to see if I could get it going.

I just got a new graphics card (all specs below) and when I start up the computer, it loads the BIOS, then says it's loading grub 2, then says, "Initializing gfx code..." and hangs there forever. How can I diagnose this and find out if the card will work with my computer and opensuse 11.1?
CARD SPECS

NVidia GeForce 8400 GS

I made the mistake of trying to install an nvidia graphics driver from the download.nvidia.com/opensuse11.2 repository. My card is a PCI quadro nvs 295 so looks like it should be supported. The installation and update of the kernel seemed to be successful, but for some reason sax2 doesn't seem to recognise the nvidia card, even when I run "sax2 -r -m 0=nvidia" and I'm stuck with the VESA framebuffer graphics default in /etc/X11/xorg.conf code...
I've found tons of threads on this kind of thing but I only seem to be making things worse trying to fix it. If anyone can give me a hint and fix my pathetic-looking desktop I'd be very grateful!!! At the moment nothing that uses opengl will work either

Whenever I try to start an OpenGL app in the terminal, I get a message to the point of "could not create GL context." It was working until around the last update. I know it's not a hardware problem because my windows partition works as well as ever.
I'm using Hardy Heron with the closed Nvidia driver with a Geforce 9800gt
'glxinfo | grep OpenGL' gives
Code:
Error: glXCreateContext failed

I have an OpenGL program in a Linux server. I want to run the program remotely with X forwarding, but it fails, whereas programs such as xclock and xeyes work fine. (I confirmed that the program works in the local desktop environment.) Below is additional information.
Test Code:
#include <GL/glut.h>
#define WIDTH 300
#define HEIGHT 300
void display()

EDIT: I got it to work. It turns out that mesa-common-dev works with my nVidia drivers.
I'm new here, and to Linux/Ubuntu in general, so I apologize if this is in the wrong section or something. Anyways, I'm trying to get the OpenGL SDK to work on my computer. I've already gotten gcc/++ and whatnot, and I'm fairly sure I've upgraded my graphics drivers to the most current possible. A quick check reveals that my graphics card is nVidia:
Code:
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV41.8[GeForce Go 6800] (rev a2)So I assume that I need to get the nVidia OpenGL packages:
Code:
sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-dev
However, that nets me this error:
Code:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package nvidia-glx-dev is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source
E: Package 'nvidia-glx-dev' has no installation candidate
My only other thought is to apt-get mesa-common-dev, but I don't know if that will work with nVidia. (And this is a rather old computer, so the problem might just be one of obsoleteness, but it doesn't seem like so, from the error I'm getting).

I just upgraded from FC8 (32-bit) to FC11 (64-bit). In doing so, I backed up my entire World of Warcraft folder so I could try to avoid having to download and install it all over again. However, I've now reinstalled wine (64-bit now), and the nvidia drivers from the rpmfusion repos (also 64-bit), and when I try to start WoW, it says it cannot load OpenGL. I'm wondering if anyone knows what's up, and if there's a solution that doesn't involve reinstalling WoW.

I'm trying to work with the robocup simulator (SIMSPARK), but it doesn't work. Really i don't know why.
The terminal show me the following error and i think that the problem is from UBUNTU and OPENGL :

I need to be able to open an openGL based piece of software remotely (like Maya or 3D Studio Max, for example). The server will be a linux machine (CentOS, currently, fwiw), but the client should be able to run on at least Linux and Windows. This will happen over the internet as opposed to over a LAN.
So far, I've tried
- "NoMachine NX" which is pretty good, but it seems to have some issues with GL. Maybe this can be fixed in xorg on the server (disabling overlays or something like that)? not sure.
- HP Remote Graphics Software (RGS) which works fairly well with Cent & Windows, though is sometimes a little slow. It also doesn't seem to be happy on Ubuntu, which is a pretty big bummer. It's also a bummer that it's somewhat expensive. That said, it's still the front-runner.
- VNC which was very slow.
It's imperative that it can transmit very complex rendered OpenGL properly. It's ok if it's slow to tumble/refresh, but it should be correct.

I didn't have any luck finding the solution for not getting opengl working on a SLES11 server with a remote X-Win32 client. As a reference I've used the tool "glxgears" for testing.We have two servers. One (server A) with SLES10 and the other (server B) with SLES11. We use X-Win32 (ver. 9.x) as an X-server on a Microsoft Windows client machine. Both servers are connected to with ssh with X11 forwarding enabled (Xclock works fine on both).Starting glxgears from server A works fine; Three nice gears are displayed.

My understanding is that there is no Optimus support for Linux at this time.Will a default CentOS installation work fine with just the integrated graphics.in other words, will Optimus and the discrete graphics be ignored? Will OpenGL still work correctly with the Intel integrated graphics?I am considering an i5-based laptop with Optimus support, where I might go with a dual-boot configuration.

I'm using Debian Jessie. All the firmware packages are properly installed, and so are the radeon free driver packages.
However, Gallium falls back to llvmpipe, which from what I understand is a software rasterizer and not actually hardware rendering.
Everything works fine except some specific things like KDE's cube animation, which says it can't be enabled because it requires OpenGL.
How do I get Debian to run Gallium properly?
I attached some relevant info...
glxinfo | grep -i opengl

I have to use acpi=off because my PC is crushing/freezing during installation and 2 mins after boot up. Currently I'm using acpi=ht to enable second CPU.
The problem is that my Intel graphic card is slow and Xorg is taking a lot of CPU.
I'm also not able to enable compiz when disabling acpi. The biggest problem is the MythTV that is so slow in the menu area alone that I'm not watching any TV in it lately.
When I'm not, it's crushing, no CPU spikes, no strange behavior just crushing without any logs.
Ubuntu 8.10 was running well on the box.

I am using CentOS 5, I have recently installed it on my Dell LATITUDE laptop but the resolution was 800x600. I've tried to put it on 1680x1050 and it worked out well I guess but the graphics had become very slow. For example I have to wait 5 to 6 seconds to scroll from page to page in a pdf file. Minimizing a window takes also a lot of time. I have a NVIDIA card in my PC.

I installed Ubuntu 10.10 32-bit on a Dell Optiplex GX240, it has an ATI Rage 128 Pro Ultra TF (from lspci output) and all the graphics run very slow (I'm assuming because OpenGL and hardware acceleration are disabled). I Googled the issue and found several solutions but non of them worked. I tried installing the ATI Catalyst driver but it doesn't recognize the graphics card. I also tried to install the fglrx drivers but when I run fglrxinfo I get a segmentation fault. So the X server is running with the open source (r128) drivers and it's really slow.

I've upgraded (reinstalled) from Slackware 13.1 to 13.37 on an old iMac and have problems with slow graphics.
lspci says this about the graphics card:
Code:
With Slackware 13.1 I had no KMS enabled and graphics speed was okay. It wasn't very good, but okay for everyday work. Now with 13.37 it's extremely slow. glxgears runs with only around 38 fps, no matter what I do. And every now and then when logging off, I get a black screen and no new kdm-login. But I can ssh into that machine and restart X by issuing 'init 3;init 4'.
KMS is enabled (I've also tried disabling it, but then KDE crashes right after logging in) and it's a fresh installation of 13.37 with a 2.6.37.6 kernel.
What can I do?
I have to admin I don't know this video and X stuff very well and I used to have machines with NVIDIA cards.
If there's anything else than the usual Xorg.0.log needed.
To me the log doesn't look like there's any problem whatsoever:

I've got a matrox m9120 installed at 1280x1024 60hz but its really slow. You see the screen building up in blocks. And that's just in the standard screen. I don't run special software. Any tricks how to improve?

When I play Bejewelled Blitz on Mozilla firefox or Google Chrome,, it is so painfully slow that it is frustrating, I have all the latest updates from Ubuntu installed including the Adobe flashplayer. Is there some way I can increase the graphics memory allocation?

Code:
Failed to activate desktop effects using the given options. Settings will be reverted to their previous values.
Check your X configuaration.
You may also consider changing advanced options, especially changing the composting type. I cannot use OpenGL, hence my Compiz is useless.. I have ATI 5850s

I recently upgraded from 11.2 to 11.3. I had to manually install nVidia drivers to get the desktop working correctly (compiz was enabled), now the system runs fine except for cairo-dock which doesn't start on KDE boot.Running it from console and choosing Yes when asked for using OpenGL, it returns an error
djechelon@MONSTR:~> cairo-dock
============================================================================
Cairo-Dock version: 2.1.3-7
Compiled date: Mar 18 2010 20:45:24
Running with OpenGL: 1
============================================================================
cairo-dock: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib64/libgtkglext-x11-1.0.so.0: undefined symbol: GTK_WIDGET_NO_WINDOW
After upgrade to 11.3 I performed a full distro upgrade via YaST by updating all the packages if a newer version was available, so I'm using the latest version of all the packages on my system. I searched with YaST for the package containing that libgtkglext and forced its upgrade in order to reinstall it. No fix.Here is my repository list

Last night I was playing around with Desktop Effects and set the composting engine to Xrender, it was openGL. And things started to slow down tremendously. There is now lag on Alt+F1, lag when mousing over hidden taskbar, lag when moving windows, etc. I was trying to get rid of a trail of images when moving windows around. I created more problems. Things got even better when I tried to change back to openGL:
"Failed to activate desktop effects using the given configuration options. Setting will be reverted back to previous values. Check your X configuration. You may also consider changing advancde options, especially changing the composting type." The same thing happens when I click on "Default", the default options disable desktop effects.

I am having a few strange issues with my new SUSE 11.3 install. This is my first time attempting to use it as my full time OS, so I can't say if these problems existed in previous versions.
1.) When I configure extended desktop, it works fine, but the settings do not save. Anytime I reboot my system, I have to reconfigure the Dual Display settings
2.) If I enable openGL effects, or use an OpenGL screen saver my system locks up and I can not restart X. (I have to power cycle the computer)
3.) I get corrupt icons sometimes in my system tray and desktop. (They look like a TV that is tuned into a non broadcasting number)
I have a Quadro 1700, and I read about installing the NVIDIA drivers instead of the ones that come with SUSE.

I'm an owner of a ATI mobility radeon X1300 card. Since ATI tagged my card as legacy, i'm stuck with the open source radeon drivers. Wich doesn't bother me, as i know they are slower and openGL support doesn't equal fglrx. What does bother me is that the current version 7.9 dev. claims to have full opengl support up to 2.1. I'm trying to use a extention that is part of the openGL version 1.3 and it's failing. This is a known issue for a long time now and it really disappoints me. "Compressed textures" is what i'm talking about.
Is there any way to make sure that drivers aren't tagged with something they support if they obviously don't? I guess the KDE4 kwin vs drivers thing is the same as i'm trying to say now. Drivers should be documented with what they effectively support and not what they should support. What can I do to make this public to xorg developers? I could only think about posting this here as i have no idea where to put it elsewere. Could someone please point me in the right direction to where i should send this complaint?

I'm having some problems compiling mednafen on Suse 11.4. When I run configure, things work fine until I get the following series of errors:
[Code]...
configure: error: *** OpenGL header file not found! I've seen references in a few places that these type ("Present But Cannot Be Compiled") can usually be ignored, but in this case ./configure fails and I can't make. I am unsure why this is, as I've installed mednafen on Suse 11.4 before and it runs fine. I've tried installing various OpenGL-related packages that I can find (Mesa, freeglut, glib, etc) but nothing seems to solve the problem
