Penumbra loads, but screen goes blank.

[niadh]

Hi guys, I've had penumbra working under Ubuntu fine, however Ubuntu didn't fulfil my needs any more and moved to Arch Linux (32bit).

I got the Penumbra collection installed but when I come to run it, the screen goes blank, I can hear audio but the monitor goes black and Xorg seems to bomb out on something that looks like the horizontal and vertical refresh are out, and I have to hard reboot cos I can't change to a virtual terminal and bring the system down on the command line.

I have included the hp.log file in tar.gz format as stated in the advise I believe. I have also found a similar thread that exhibits similar results: http://frictionalgames.com/forum/showthr...ank+screen

Same symptoms, I don't think the solution is the same though. I am running up to date drivers for my nVidia 6600 card. Am running Arch Linux 32 bit.

I grabbed the relevant sections of /proc/cpuinfo below and I have 2GB of ram and I have had this running perfectly before under Ubuntu on the same hardware, the only thing I can think that might be the issue is my xorg.conf file, which I have also attached in case it is at fault.

Thanks in advance,
Niadh
