I only noticed that eyeball scene, the light or whatever overtop of it
didn't look like it did in Windows, but I assume that's got to do with
my configuration, or a D3D vs GL thing.

I think I skipped part of the intro movie. I'll try it again and watch
the entire thing this time.

How many people are on this list to try it?

I haven't played the game for more than 15 minutes or so in Windows, so
I'm not sure what that is yet.

:( indeed.

Possibly. I noticed some weird stuff going on with the sound, but maybe
that's an ALSA problem? Up until last week or so, I was using OSS and
never had any glitches in my sounds... I could try with OSS drivers.

I'll play it as much as I can, and see what else I can come up with.
