@birdspider Thanks. I'll check out those links. Unfortunately, I'm kinda stuck with hardware at the moment. However, my wife runs the same machine with WinXP -- so for the moment I can steal that. Still, the support for linux was enough to push me over the edge to purchase the full KSP, thanks SQUAD.

I have an old ThinkPad X60s with an Intel i810 graphics processor. I'm using the Intel X driver: cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep -i driver [ 106.326] X.Org Video Driver: 12.1 [ 106.326] X.Org XInput driver : 16.0 [ 107.440] (==) Matched intel as autoconfigured driver 0 [ 107.440] (==) Matched vesa as autoconfigured driver 1 [ 107.440] (==) Matched fbdev as autoconfigured driver 2 [ 107.440] (==) Assigned the driver to the xf86ConfigLayout [ 107.440] (II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/intel_drv.so [ 107.562] Module class: X.Org Video Driver [ 107.562] ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 12.1 [ 107.562] (II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/vesa_drv.so [ 107.579] Module class: X.Org Video Driver [ 107.579] ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 12.0 [ 107.580] (II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/fbdev_drv.so [ 107.583] ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 12.0 [ 107.583] (II) intel: Driver for Intel Integrated Graphics Chipsets: i810, [ 107.584] (II) VESA: driver for VESA chipsets: vesa [ 107.584] (II) FBDEV: driver for framebuffer: fbdev [ 107.686] ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 12.1 [ 109.490] (II) intel(0): [DRI2] DRI driver: i915 [ 109.563] (II) UXA(0): Driver registered support for the following operations: [ 114.149] Module class: X.Org XInput Driver [ 114.150] ABI class: X.Org XInput driver, version 16.0 and glx is direct glxinfo | grep direct direct rendering: Yes unfortunately, when I start up the demo the menu comes up extremely slowly (as in 10 seconds between frames) making the game unplayable. I have confirmed that the demo works fine on the exact same hardware under Windows XP. Is there anything I can do to make this work under Linux (debian)?
