hello this is what I get after I enter glaxium.
Goes to a black screen like it is going to start then I get this
Depth buffer depth : 16
No stencil buffer, no shadows. Try 32bits mode.
Found textures in /usr/share/games/glaxium
Number of texture units : 2
Cannot load dot3 extension neither NVidia neither ARB.
Fall back to basic openGL. The floor will be very simple.
NO anisotropy texture…
Couldn’t open audio: No available audio device
what do I do to correct this so I can play this game. Oh yeah I am running red hat 8.0 and installed the rpm that is on the glaxium site.
