Thanks for the help on this, I'm a newbie regarding bugs.

The reply I got here: http://basiliskgames.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=2080#p16840
was from the developers at Hothead, the creators of Penny Arcade's "On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness", and I guess their problem is quite different since their game is full 3d and all that stuff while Eschalon is totally 2d. I emailed them because neither that game runs on my intel card.

But again I'm no expert on drivers and 3d stuff, I just know a lot about patents and did a quick search.

Actually I'm a bit puzzled about Eschalon running VERY FINE on hardy while it runs so bad on Jaunty (and not at all on Intrepid) but so many things are involved in this that things like this can happen I guess.

I'll email the developers of Eschalon about this bug and the possibility for them to solve it by collaboration with the drivers programmers.

Thanks again for the help.
