Using a Radeon 8500, Linux kernel 2.6.11-rc4 'radeon' driver, Xorg 6.8.2: 0000:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon R200 QL [Radeon 8500 LE] When playing the game, things go fairly smoothly with the exception of some small problems. (1) In the menus, the mouse pointer is shadowed. I'll draw this in some lovely ascii art. |\ || | \ || | \ || | \ || \-+-/ || \ || \ || ^ ^ cursor shadow The shadow follows the mouse cursor around when you move it. (2) Shadows in some part of levels are purple. The purple also shows up in some objects (like in +50 shield pack) where it isn't supposed to.
Created attachment 1948 [details] a picture of the purple shadows. it seems that in this level the place that the purple shadows appear is always underneeth spinning fans (that cast dynamic shadows).
This is a problem with projected textures. It was fixed in Mesa cvs some months ago, but these (quite substantial) changes are not in xorg 6.8.2. New driver snapshots should work ok though. About the pointer shadow, I wondered about that too some time ago and came to the conclusion it's actually not a bug. IIRC it looked the same with software mesa and other drivers. I may be remembering that wrong however.
It's supposed to be fixed in CVS, so closing I'm it.
