Title: Linux Version Good...Flicker Bad Post by: C64 on April 26, 2010, 06:11 Thanks for fixing the sound, working great in linux now. Appreciate it!!
Unfortunately, I seem to have a very annoying screen flicker, and other apps (firefox) enhance it. It goes away in full screen mode, but then you lose the chat window. On a similar tangent, pop-ups show up BEHIND the main window. Is this a common problem? Title: Re: Linux Version Good...Flicker Bad Post by: Peter on April 26, 2010, 07:02 This seems like a video card driver issue. I suggest you try to update your drivers. But then you say that version 1.2.3 worked fine for you without flickering? I also suggest you install the latest Java version from Sun (www.java.com).
Title: Re: Linux Version Good...Flicker Bad Post by: C64 on May 05, 2010, 02:15 No, 1.2.3 had the same video issue. I'll try updating my Java and graphics driver and report back if it helps.
Title: Re: Linux Version Good...Flicker Bad Post by: C64 on May 24, 2010, 19:40 I still have flicker, with my ATI drivers updated and Java updated, etc.
What would be a good workaround is to have a chat window in fullscreen mode by integrating chat directly into the game display (bottom bar or something). Title: Re: Linux Version Good...Flicker Bad Post by: Peter on June 04, 2010, 14:25 I'm sorry to say that it's not likely we will fix your issue any time soon. Just to be sure you have proper drivers you'll have to download them from here: http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/index.aspx. Downloading the drivers with your package manager might not work for example.
Yes I agree, the chat ought to be integrated with the game display. |
