Hi Mahesh,

Do you have any other OpenGL proggies working? If you need something to test 
it, try 'gears' if it's installed, you should get a fairly impressive frame 
rate (and if it's using hardware the frame rate shouldn't drop much / at all 
when you resize the window, unlike software..).

Check you don't have some old Mesa libs lying around that tux is using instead 
of the correct ones, that'd be my best guess. Especially check libGL.so and 
libGLU.so(.1?) point to nvidia files (eg. libGL.so.1.0.1541 is what mine 
points to), and not something else (like a mesa related file for example). 
And make sure you check all your lib directories (like /usr/X11R6/lib), not 
just /usr/lib. It could maybe be possible that tuxracer is looking for 
libGL.so somewhere else and getting the wrong one (if other GL programs 
work?). Just some thoughts...

Cheers,
Gareth

ps. watch out, that game is addictive ;-)
For a challenge, try getting down the map "who says penguins can't fly" in 
under a minute. It's been a while since I played, but me and a friend used to 
try to beat each other's time, my best was 52:26 I think. And that's damn 
quick ;-)
