Thanks for testing.  The tarball has been updated with a handful
of changes, including a patch from kurt@ to fix the shared

Anyone want to ok it?

Doesn't work at all for me. The menu starts but it
doesn't accept mouse nor keyboard. I'm using KDE on i386.

With the first tarball I could start the scenario but nearly all
buildings were hidden. It's probably because of the bpp
bug?

Trying to start from a command line doesn't work
either:

$ micropolis -s Detroit

Cool, I found the shared memory extension!

Oh well, at least sounds work when I get this error: "Sorry" :-D

Just a guess but I'm wondering about the 'WithdrawnState', could it have 
something to do with "[-S(ugar mode: enable OLPC Sugar user interface 
integration)]" ?
