Thread: Graphics not displaying properly even with proprietary driver


hi, have radeon hd 5800 (not sure how find out which) , have proprietary driver installed. can watch movies, etc, , play games, don't think 3d part working properly? want play guild wars , i've installed ok, doesn't display log on screen, graphics behind it. wine site says it's platinum , should run fine , check other games.

supertuxkart uses 3d , wine suggested test before "blaming" it, , sure enough doesn't work. i'm stumped - i'm not after running games how can make sure graphics card works properly?
