Hi!
I have a quite strange graphical problem playing Tremulous.
If I set up High or Normal quality (Options->System), quite often all moving objects vanish and the display freezes. This means that the map objects stay where they are but all players and most of the structures vanish from the display and also display freezes so no display reaction on moving.
Although if I press Esc (brings up the menu) then everything gets back and another Esc (removes the menu) still everything OK for a while... then it happens again.
If I set up Fast or VeryFast Quality, then quite often the screen blanks (black screen). The Esc brings back everything, another Esc still ok, I can continue to play or observe... then it happens again.
It takes maximally 5 minutes for these things to happen (the difference is only the method of the problem), but the "frequency" vary from 1 min to 5 min.
I checked if it is my window manager, but both under Fluxbox and Gnome it happens.
One very interesting thing is that the method of the problem only depends on the starting quality. This means that if I set up Fast quality, and then I change the sub settings to be the same as for High quality, the screen still blanks (az for Fast quality) and not freezes as if it should if I set up High quality.

Linux: Arch Linux
Kernel: 2.6.15-ARCH
Graphics card: nVidia GeForce FX 5200
Driver: 1.0-8178

If I can provide any other informations, please tell me.
