Need help on this one guys Ubunutu 7.10

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
ok I no longer have my E1705. I now have a T60P. I got the Ubuntu 7.10 working but I am having the hardest time to get guildwars to work under wine. I am sure it has to do something with the drivers I am using. The envy drivers causes lots of artifacts and I had to go back to the Ubuntu default drivers. I have been reading on some new set of drivers from Ati but I am getting mix reviews. The current setup is wrong and thats why games run very crappy. when I use the following command "glxinfo | grep direct" I get this
Xlib: extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":1.0".
direct rendering: No (If you want to find out why, try setting LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose)

I know it should say direct rendering to yes in order to get good frame rates in games.

here's my Xorg.conf
