[Linux] Extremely Slow Runtime

[Xirul]

I'm running on Linux (Debian distr.), and I knew this game had Linux support so I downloaded it.  Unzipped the archive and started Paintball 2.  The game is so slow that I can hardly move my mouse.

Was there something special I was supposed to do on my end, or is the Linux support only really half-Linux support?

Edit:  I looked at the console, and it's failing to load libGL.so, and reverting to libGL.1.2.so.

Thanks for any help  .

I've had this problem on an ATI Video card before, make sure you have 3D Acceleration. For me I could run Quake 3 fine but couldn't run this game, dunno why.

Well, I'm getting a new graphics card in a few days so that might help.  A few days ago I tried installing nvidia 3d graphics drivers (one would think that they're already installed O_O), but the installation failed.

nvidia-glx or nvidia-glx-legacy?

[Xirul]

nvidia-glx, I think.

Make sure your card isn't a legacy card then.
