Link to this post 10 May 12

Hello for everyone, i have a little problem with game warzone2100 in one pc with ati graphic card ->

ATI Technologies Inc RV280 [Radeon 9200 PRO]

I installed xorg edgers _> edgersdrivers because ati dont give a properly support or driver with good quality for this card.

The quality of graphics increase but in some games the image is very bad in follow links i post two images of warzone 2100->

Can you give me a idea to solve this problem?

Thanks.

I'd say that installing experimental drivers have its downsides, don't you think? ;)

I'm sorry I can't help you with this :S

I believe this problem probably is a repercution of install xorg edgers because vids also appear with shadows, its strange.

In this moment i down calculate Linux because new unity ubuntu is very bad.
so in this machine i uninstall ubuntu and take calculate or other distro / or use old ubuntu 10.04.

THanks for your answer

OK, i find the solution.

THe problem is xorg edgers, the history, yesterday i take the day to reformat one o fmy pcs, my desktop office pc, this pc have the graphic i mentioned and he was with gentoo.

I rememeber that is pc in past had Ubuntu (after gentoo) but i dont remember if the graphics works well with this ubuntu or not.

SO yesterday i tested install ubuntu 10.04, and the problem i related appear because i install the xorg edgers ppa, the 12.04 ubuntu is recently and i take the decision to teste him.

Down and install but problem unity is a big .... i dont like, i dont like gnome 3 alternatives is lxde or xfce.

So i thinking, if new ubuntu is unity and gnome 3 probably i feel more confortable with gnome 2 (fallback) and he is qorks well with compiz only with gnome 2, so i use a ubuntu 10.04 remaster and install it but i dont install xorg edgers and voilá the game appears good.

So problem is solved.
