What type of video do you both have? lspci reports that it's a Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/GME, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller I have a VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV34 [GeForce FX5200] (rev a1). The driver packages: ii nvidia-glx 100.14.11-1 NVIDIA binary Xorg driver ii nvidia-kernel-2.6.2 100.14.11-1+custom. NVIDIA binary kernel module for Linux 2.6.22.16 ii xserver-xorg-core 2:1.3.0.0.dfsg-12le X.Org X server -- core server These are somewhat outdated, since I don't want to upgrade yet to xserver-xorg 1.4 due to the many reported issues with that version. BTW, I compiled and installed Barry's new version on mentors.debian.net, but I still got the errors quoted above (except for the mkdir ... failed , which is fixed). :-( Regards, Sven ___ Pkg-games-devel mailing list Pkg-games-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-games-devel

I think if it can't use SDL it tries to create some type of cache to help with performance which is why I can't reproduce it locally.

Can you please do me a favor. Either create a .adanaxis dir under your home and see if that works. If not, look at /usr/share/games/adanaxisgpl/start.txt. There is an entry in there called setcachepath. Try moving /tmp in front of $HOME to see if it will create it in /tmp. If this works I'll create a patch. Thanks!
