my friend invited me for a nice game of bzflag, but i can't run it, it gives me this error


david@akulinux:~$ bzflag

I thought it was the driver (and since I didn't had nvidia driver i installed it right away (http://flickr.com/photos/akurashy/61864764/)

I get this error when trying to play in full screen. The only "fix" I am aware of is to play in a (large) window, which works fine.

[akurashy]

what fix in where? :S

[etc]

Run bzflag in a window by running
bzflag --window

und im Fenster läufts, nur wie mache ich das Fenster möglichst groß? Weil sobald ich das Spiel gestartet habe ist meine Maus dort gefangen. Gibt bestimmt nen Shortcut um sich aus einem Fenster wieder zu befreien oder?

did you try installing the latest version from source? I had problems too on 5.10, my bullets weren't seen nor felt by my ennemies!!! Until I went to the bzflag site, got the latest .tar.gz and ./configure make isntall...
