Solved: 8 Years, 9 Months, 3 Weeks ago RE: How come..

I too have seen that video and I spent a couple of weeks trying to make the game works. Fortunately the game works great, both the native Linux version and the Windows version under Wine (let's keep in mind that I can't even run the game on Windows because I have an Intel card). All I did was installing Ubuntu 11.04 (alpha 3), adding the xorg-edgers PPA (https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa), upgrading the system and then install dritools (with apt-get), then you execute it and activate the s3tc libraries.

I've spent a lot of weeks making tests, compiling drivers and breaking the x server over and over again but it all became really simple with the PPA. I should note that I'm a SuSE user so the Ubuntu partition is nothing but a sandbox, you really shouldn't try all this on your stable OS because these are all versions under development.

Bottom line is that Intel drivers for Windows have so little OpenGL support that you will not be able to run Amnesia on Windows, however using the method mentioned above you will be able to play it. I haven't been able to try it beyond playing five minutes (I will do it tonight though!) but everything seemed rather fine.
