I have recently updated my kernel to version 3.6
- Code: Select all
paul@punzilla ~ $ uname -r
3.6.0-sabayon
I have a NVIDIA card as follows
- Code: Select all
punzilla paul # lspci
02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation G71 [GeForce 7900 GTX] (rev a1)
when I play supertuxkart in fullscreen mode 1280 x 720 resolution, the game flickers.
When I was using an earlier kernel this did not happen.
I have tried running the game from the terminal, and received the following output.
I tried to understand the output, though I haven't been able to understand anything to fix my issue.
This also doesn't appear to be game specific.. I have played 0.a.d with the same flickering results.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
