Your not the only one =). (Did you get to see the guards marching around
as well before the crash?)

Try this link...
http://icculus.org/cgi-bin/ezmlm/ezmlm-cgi?32:iis:23:200307#b
and read all of them it should tell you that this is normal for most ppl
running on linux. Itll also tell you that you should use this command to
bypass the error(well it didnt work for me).

Try:

   [dennis:~/devastation/System]$ ./devastation-bin SP0M1-TheLab

This has been reported to work for some people but i get told that level
isnt there so maybe the euro version has different levels or naming ...
whatever. But i also tryed this level and it showed more hope for me...
but crashed out telling me i am missing some OpenGl extention. Its some
compresion thing thats not part of normal ati drivers and it seems its
not part of my GeForce 2 MX400 as well :-(.

   [dennis:~/devastation/System]$ ./devastation-bin SP0M0-TheLab

Hope that works for you... and plesse post back about it.
