I have Ubuntu 9.04 and trying to run Tremulous. Everything goes fine but suddenly the game hangs up and I can't do anything, not even quit the game, tab it down, nothing! Any ideas what I should do?

Logs, error messages, any helpful information at all?

Disable your screen-saver.
Any maps not in the MG repo?  Email me or come to irc.freenode.net/#mg.

I'm disappointed that people's past actions have forced me to state what should be obvious.

If you're in Openbox, Fluxbox, or Blackbox, listen to David.

If you're in Gnome, KDE, or XFCE, disable Compiz when you play.

The *box screensavers do not detect a fullscreen application as active, as the X mouse cursor is not moving.
This will also happen in Gnome, KDE and XFCE when Compiz is handling the screensavers.
