Hi. I played Overture few month ago ; since I updated my Debian Etch and now Overture and BlackPlague don't start.

When I launch one game or the other it crash and I have this message in the hlp.log :

Code:
Init low level graphics
Setting video mode: 800 x 600 - 32 bpp
ERROR: Could not set display mode setting a lower one!
FATAL ERROR: Unable to initialize display!


I have a Geforce 8800 and the 800x600 mode is working fine if I try this mode.

Any idea to help me ?

Oops ! I re-installed the Nvidia driver and now it works. Probably the driver was mis-installed.

So. It works and it's a great game ! Smile Thanks
