Description Lucas 2012-02-06 14:01:26 UTC
Humble Bundle have released the Shank port to Linux, but the game is unplayable while using Mesa (tested with radeon driver on Radeon HD 4870, and intel on GM45).

Last update from xorg-edgers (tested on radeon), that changed the OpenGL version string to "Mesa 8.0-rc2" made significant improvement over mid-January versions: now the cinematic movies are displayed at full speed. But the game is still unplayable, and except from some HUD elements, the game screen is black, as well as the menus, that have black background where there should be some artwork.

Seems very related to https://bugzilla.icculus.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5336

Sounds like a lack of S3TC. Find and install libtxc_dxtn.
Comment 3 Lucas 2012-02-06 15:03:21 UTC
I have libtxc_dxtn installed, and glxinfo reports having GL_EXT_texture_compression_s3tc.
Comment 4 Sven Arvidsson 2012-02-06 15:16:50 UTC
Do you use the 32-bit version of Shank? If so, you need a 32-bit libtxc_dxtn.

Indeed... thanks.
