Description Bruno Wolff III 2009-11-07 15:56:28 UTC 
Description of problem:
While running glest from the command line to test some sound issues I got a warning that appears to be from the video driver and may indicate a bug.

*********************************WARN_ONCE*********************************
File r200_tcl.c function r200_run_tcl_render line 563
Rendering was 1 commands larger than predicted size. We might overflow  command buffer.
***************************************************************************

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
glest-3.2.2-1.fc12.i686
xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.13.0-0.10.20091006git457646d73.fc12.i686

How reproducible:
I tried it a couple of times and got the same message.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run glest from the command line on a machine with an r200 based video card.
2. Quit once get a menu from glest.
3.

Expected results:

Comment 1 Matěj Cepl 2009-11-16 09:56:04 UTC 
Was it just a message or system misbehaved somehow?
Comment 2 Bruno Wolff III 2009-11-16 14:03:06 UTC 
I just noticed the message while trying to test some sound issues. I doubt that the video rending message is related to the the sound.
I reported the message because it sounded like something bad could happen.
Comment 3 Bruno Wolff III 2009-11-16 17:46:16 UTC 
As another data point, I tried glest from the command line on a machine with an rv530 and didn't get any warnings.

I am getting the same error on a ThinkPad T41 with RV250 when running Extreme TuxRacer
