Overture in Ubuntu 10.04- doesn't run - Zappanale - 06-09-2010
I got Overture in the humble bundle, and after installing and playing it, although the menus and intro scene works fine, once the actual game starts (on the screen that says "I can look with left and right mouse buttons", etc) things turn sour. The entire screen is more or less one block of colour, a sort of light brown, and when I move the mouse it's incredibly jerky.
I have zero idea what's happening, and can provide whatever info is needed to fix it.
Thanks for any help you can give.

What video card do you have? This is most likely an issue with the video card drivers.

Hi, sorry for the delay in my reply.
from my lspci output
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Mobility Radeon HD 3400 Series
I believe this is the latest version of the linux driver; hopefully installing it will solve my problems

Ok, updating the driver has solved all my problems.
Thanks!
