I can't say what ppcracer is looking for, but it seems that it isn't finding it.
 ppracer is a universe package, so consider submitting a bug to Malone, or
trying one of the support forums.

I think i have a set of games that don't use 3D, and others do; maybe related to
drm/dri? gl/mesa? i. ex. torcs works very well windowed and full screen, but
glxgears is too visually slow (it does not print any fps count :s, in olders
breezys and hoary it works at 600~800fps)

There is any thing that I can do?

thx
