Bug Description
Problem appeared after update from Ubuntu 13.10 to 14.04. Game worked fine in Saucy with both radeon and fglrx. Now in Trusty only works with fglrx. Using radeon driver gives heavy flickering (about 0,5s intervals) when running the game (through PlayOnLinux/WINE). I expect some other games of other users will have the same problem.

Tried running with Intel IGP instead of radeon - no flickering!
