direct rendering in planeshift with ATI-Card

[SchwarzerRabe]

I sucessfully installed planeshift via the binary installer(I had several problems with emerge, because in 64bit version it just does not work). But on startup I get a message warning me, that it is only running with indirect rendering.
Humm...
I reconfigured my kernel and installed the newest ATI-Drivers.
glxinfo | grep direct gives me, that direct rendering is on.
But the game still gives the same warning and I still have to play with under 2.0 fps...
Any ideas?

There was no script installed by the planeshift-installer but one left by the not yet unemerged 64bit-version which doesn't work.
I edited it to my needs and it just works fine. Thank you VERY MUCH FOR ALL YOUR HELP!!

That method worked, too to get the ut2004-demo running(lib64 instead of lib32 )...

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL... I needed such a long time so that it works now.. The fps differ very much depending on where I am... But it now just interrupted about 4 times... There is no real reason it just crashes...
Is it just still a bit unstable or is there a solution?

It's not you, it's due to recent server changes I think. It's being looked at.

Try running the updater again. We published some new art files on their which might fix your problems.

All right, the crashes stopped! I did not even have to update....
But I have another little question:
How do I set LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH so that it contains the value after every reboot without need to type it in over and over again?
I read several times, that I had to add variables to the .bashrc-file...
But where is it? And what exactly do I have to write in there?

[xordan]

If you use nano:

'nano -w ~/.bashrc'
Then at the bottom of the file add the line:

export LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH=/usr/lib32/modules/dri

Save and exit
