[SOLVED]ETQW - white BG and gray cursor, no graphics being loaded.

Ok, so I got this game d/l'd and then managed to get all the files I needed extracted to the same directory as the linux client installed too. I did all of this in ubuntu(more HD space ATM). The game worked perfectly. So then I tried to run the game from within arch, accessing it on the ubuntu drive.

Well, the game started as normal, but the graphics do not load. All I get is a white screen and a gray cursor box. The sound works, the '~' command works. In fact this is the only way for me to exit, press ~ and type exit.

The error I get is something about GL_Textures. But, in my terminal window that's all there this, if I try to scroll to the top to see what started it all I hit a dead end because the terminal buffer ran out.

Any Ideas on this problem?

Re: [SOLVED]ETQW - white BG and gray cursor, no graphics being loaded.

bump, does this help any? I have searched the output of the terminal and all the problems seem to start right here. What do I need to install to get all the 'not found' stuff working?

Well, this is where in my problem lies, now how do I fix it? glxinfo reports that I have the right stuff enabled, but etqw doesn't agree. There is something that I am missing, I am just not sure what.

This is a clean install so I do not think its anything I have done wrong, but probably I am just missing something. I d/l and installed the nvidia package for the kernel26 package. Everything went fine and no errors where detected when installing the nvidia driver.

Re: [SOLVED]ETQW - white BG and gray cursor, no graphics being loaded.

BTW, I have done a complete re-install of arch and full install of ETQW linux client and game data files and still same problem.

so if any gets an idea let me know and I will try it out. just one of those annoyances I'd like to fix and understand.

Re: [SOLVED]ETQW - white BG and gray cursor, no graphics being loaded.

FIXED!!!! Finally, the guy on ETQW site pointed me to the arch wiki, go figure.

This is the url he posted. http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Usi … _on_Arch64

So I check the wiki and see that lib32-nvidia-utils need to be installed for 32 bit opengl applications to run on 64 bit. So I installed it and got this message in terminal. Said something about a conflict with lib32-libgl which I installed when I first setup arch according to the beginners guide.

This was really confusing for me, the answer didn't seem to be as straight forward as I thought. Hopefully maybe someone can make this clearer to idiots like me some how for future reference.
