Hi,
Nexuiz, as the title says, runs really slow and glitchy for me, with the cursor moving very slowly and the menu system all jumbled up. I was able to enter an online match, but all the pings were very high (all in red on the menu screen). Now, I'm not sure of my PC's exact specs, but I've been running Vista on it and Nexuiz works fine there, so I don't think that's the problem. It's kind of ironic really, that I have to switch over to Windows to play one of the few games that actually runs natively in Linux. Anyways, I hope I provided enough info. Oh, and I'm sort of new to Ubuntu (less than a week) so please speak slowly :D

EDIT: I forgot to mention that I also tried Neverball, and that runs really slow (but not glitchy). The only other games I tried (Abuse and FCE Ultra) work fine....

perhaps you don't have direct rendering enabled.

you failed to mention what video card you have too.

Just a thought, have you installed the video driver?

I was getting lag in xmoto (lol) and then realized I hadn't installed the driver.

System>Administration>Restricted Driver Management

If you have done that, ignore my post :KS
