Hi my screen savers will not work like they should some not all.
i am using Fedora core 3 and Fedora core 3 test 3 I have XP2200 chip set to 266 mhz and 256 mb of 2700/333 mhz ram set to 333 mhz
I have a video card with 16 mb of ram. the cpu and video card has worked with the screen savers before i did a mother board change to an asus a7v8x-x. and did a fresh install and up2date on the Fedora core 3 on the Fedora core 3 test 3 was a pick the rpm i wanted to use on it.
When it is set to come on the screen just goes black it does not go to the sleep mode .namely the ones in the [ open gl or if it has a lot of movement to it ] but if it comes on set in random they seem to work right or if i put them on the test mode they work but use a lot of my cpu power up to about 60%
is this because i only have 256mb of ram ? i had 512 mb of pc 2100/266 mhz ram before. Am not sure what is going on here.[ have second email to follow this one]
Any help would be welcomed. Thanks
If your CPU goes that high, undoubtably you're doing software rendering on GL screensavers, not using the hardware.
Make sure you're using the correct drivers for your video card or chip.
