problem starting FAH

It seems that a lot of GPU problems revolve around specific versions of drivers. Though AMD has their own support structure, you can often learn from information reported by others who fold.

problem starting FAH

Post by Blue_Topaz »

Hi,
ok sorry this happened before but I forgot how to fix it. Simple backstory I dual boot windows and opensuse tumbleweed and sometimes when switching the computer crashes. So foah was running fine on the linux system, the computer crashed. I run the
foah as user. When I try to start it now I get: ERROR: Exception: Parse failed: 3: no element found
ERROR :At config.xml:1:0
Root gives no such error message...I am certain someone showed me how to fix this.
any help would be appreciated......mike

I guess you broke the config.xml file somewhat ... what does it look like ?
