Sorry about taking so long on the response. We didn't get his player.log, but we fiddled around a bit. It was indeed a permissions issue. Thanks for your help!

The odd bit is that another student (who SHOULD have the same permissions that I do, unless he's done something illegal to change that) can run the game just fine. I'll have to ask him about that.

That is very possible. I'm on one of my college's CompSci Lab computers, so I don't have admin access or anything. I'll have to bug my system administrator about it. Thanks!

It was a bit too long for the forum post, so I've stuck it on pastebin. http://pastebin.com/YeChEkdV

Done. Still getting the same issue.

I'm running a 64-bit OpenSUSE distribution of Linux, and when I try to run the game, my menu looks like this: My friend can run the game just fine on the same computer (logged into his own account on the system, instead of mine) but for some reason mine is doing that. I'd post an error from the console, but the console is similarly distorted, so I can't read it. Anyone else ever had this problem? Apparently, all the standard UI stuff generally works properly. If I can manage to properly guess where the "New Game" button would be if the text was working, I can eventually get through to the game itself. However, the game itself looks like this: So there's some sort of display issue, and I can't for the life of me figure out why. EDIT: Oh, and it's not generating any sort of error log, because the game isn't actually crashing. Turning on the error log in the .cfg file produces something in-game that is a jumbled mess like everything else in those images. I'm thoroughly stumped.
