#1:
i replaced a geforce2 GTS with a radeon 9200se, ok neither are very good but the geforce has been adequate and the radeon has equivalent or a bit better specs.
anyway using 7.0.231 and 6.1 in suse linux 9.1, whenever i use the file dialog e.g. to save output from mplayer, theres about a 30% chance the system will freeze requiring a reboot. it's definitely either a problem with the radeon (i doubt it, everything else works fine), the famous ATI drivers (interestingly wings3d wont load, says no suitable display), houdini or a combination of these.
so i tried the windows version and it works fine, it hasnt frozen. is the linux problem known?
#2:
when i composed a scene in COPS and saved the image the watermark is reflected in the y axis - upside down and at the top of the image
freezing in linux, watermark upside down in windows

thanks for the reply Edward. its currently DefaultDepth 24… i tried to change that to 32 and the x server wont start, “no screens found”.. however there is a Display entry for 32 bit.
could it be a limitation of the card - i tried making the 32 bit display section 800x600 only with no success..
not sure it will help but below is the relevant sections:

About the upside down watermark thing, I think it happened to me when I tried to save as .png. When I saved as .bmp it was fine. And also if I saved from mplay as .picnc it had the upside down watermark too, but when I saved as .pic it was alright, no watermark (the extension still ends up as .picnc of course). This is on Apprentice 7.0.192

yeah you would be right dajuice it would have been png! i was going to try to invert my image so it matched the watermark then flip the result in a paint package - shouldnt be a major problem
dmaas i think i underestimated the crappiness of the ati (linux) drivers! oh well it works fine in windows.
cheers
