Config works, output: http://www.pastebin.ca/2293836
Same error, fullscreen or windowed, output: http://pastebin.ca/2293837
(Also reports the wrong displayFrequency=50 where it should be 60)

Tried to reinstall mesa, nvidia driver and xorg, no luck.
Windows version works in wine 1.5.19, no issue.

I’m stabbing in the dark here, I found this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2083855

With OGRE giving out the same error for something else made with OGRE, the user could get it running by first doing “apt-get purge nvidia-current” and then “apt-get –reinstall install libgl1-mesa-glx”. I’m not directly saying this is what you should do, I don’t personally have enough knowledge about dealing with Linux + NVIDIA.

The fact, that the user in the thread made the error go away with that, indicates to me that the problem is somewhere in the driver department.

Also, does it produce the same error regardless if you try to run the game in fullscreen or windowed? Does even the launch_config run ok, btw?

Getting this error, won’t run.

Any chance you can identify the source of the problem? (nvidia 310.19 (64))
