I've been "playing along at home," and I'm perplexed. Nothing I do makes
any difference in my framerates. Hardware/software audio (in
botmatch-citadel only) makes no difference. I get 79 fps in
flyby-antalus. I've tried 1024x768x32 down to 640x480x16. 79 fps every
time. I've also tried all the different extra detail options (leaving
all the detail _settings_ to normal). 79 every time.

It's obviously not reading the settings I'm choosing in the game. I have
it installed in my home directory. Could this be the difference?
