Hi Jamie,
No!! We are not fed of you. Afterall, isn't a mailinglist here for you to
ask questions??
To answer your problem, what colour depth are you running Tuxracer from??
Here at school, (I have finished my A-levels and have some spare time :-)) I
am having to run tuxracer in 16bit, because 8bit colour produced the
symptoms you have already described.
Let me know how you get on,
Regards,
Thomas Adam
