I normally use schismtracker in linux, but my friend here wants to use it, too. The SDL driver looks kinda choppy, and I'd like for him to use OpenGL or Direct3D.
When switching to OpenGL, it just crashes immediately. When switching to Direct3D, it immediately changes it to SDL (Even if I had it using YV beforehand).
I've tried disabling all of the aero nonsense but it doesn't change. He plays all sorts of modern games on this thing, too.
I had the same problem, but once I remembered to right click the binary and set 'run as administrator' it would let me switch to Direct3D instead of SDL.
OpenGL still wouldn't work for me on a modern geforce. (9600, I think)
