Hi,

I recently discovered the Penumbra games and wanted to give it a try on my netbook, a MSI WIND U100 under Linux (Debian). Its integrated graphics chipset is an Intel 945gm.

I tried the demo on it, but the game freezes each time at the first 3d scene (the view of the table in the boat). No crash, but everything is blocked. I didn't noticed anything in the hpl.log. And other OpenGL applications run fine (slow, but fine).

So I wonder if anybody succesfuly ran the game on this hardawre, or of I could have more chance with the full paying version ?

Thanks in advance for any help,

Julien
Penumbra will not run on that computer, the graphics chip can't do what the game needs it do do Smile
