Crashes during intro or before getting onto the ship

[cisforCOJO]

You could be onto something. I used fglrx in Edgy but not in Feisty. Followed some Beryl guide and it suggested against it I believe (but I rarely use Beryl because it's generally NOT good for gaming, stability, etc etc.)

I'll let you know. Installing fglrx drivers now.

EDIT: Game loads now!!! But... won't display anything after I go into the mine.
FYI, even with fglrx it still says SGI (not ATI) for the server and client info.

Do you actually have the binary ATI drivers installed? As the vendor string is SGI that leads me to believe you are not, as it should say "ATI"

Try following the guides on ubuntu's website.

Hey guys,

This is really strange because I had this game working perfectly under Edgy Eft (as a demo) but now that I have Feisty Fawn it's crashing on me!!! -ugh-

EDIT: I'm currently running the full version.

My video card is on their list of supported video cards:
ATi Mobility Radeon X600
I have direct rendering working and the server and client side information is the same:
---------glxinfo info----------------------
direct rendering: Yes
server glx vendor string: SGI
server glx version string: 1.2
client glx vendor string: SGI
client glx version string: 1.4
