Any pointers? > GL_RENDERER: Mesa GLX Indirect Looks like there's no accelerated 3d available on your system (or it's not configured correctly). Also, to play Doom 3 on Fedora you need an nvidia card with the nvidia binary drivers, at least until ATI or the DRI pe"ople make some progress with their drivers. Any other hardware is certainly not powerful enough to run the game. =====================================================> ====ELW> Indeed, I have NVIDIA and those binary drivers as well. The Doom 3 Demo played perfect on FC3 kernels prior to "2.6.9-1.681_FC3" So here is what I did to resolve the problem: --Move to "2.6.9-1.715_FC3" from testing repository --Re-run the NVIDIA install script with the "--add-this-kernel" option. --Reboot And away we go!!! Doom3 is awesome!! I just could not let my relatives running Windows out do my Linux Box during the holidays. One caveat: There is indeed a gotcha. -- known issue that causes the laptop to lockup when logging out from the KDE or GNOME desktop. I believe this has already been reported for "2.6.9-1.715_FC3" in previous threads. I hope this is fixed in upstream kernels for FC3?
