Hi,
I have i915GM GPU on a laptop. I am using Debian unstable (sid).
Sauerbraten, scorched3d games start with 3D acceleration working,
but always hang after few minutes. I didn't want to fix them,
but maybe there are OpenGL settings that can prevent these hangs.

Combining the Subject line with this comment may lead most people
to believe we currently don't have a working accelerated display.
For at least the past two years, X.org came with native out of the
box and free software drivers with 3D acceleration for Intel
chipsets (e.g: 82865G, i915GM etc.)
Which means that people that were using any of the distros
that carry up to date packages (Debian Testing, Fedora, Ubuntu etc.)
did not have to do anything special to have their 3D
games/compiz/what'not working out of the box -- if they chose the
right vendor.
Disclaimer: I would be more than happy to make the same claim for
ATI (it's getting warm since AMD bought them) and Nvidia
when it would release open-source drivers (probably after
AMD/ATI, when they are left alone).
