Xfree86 crash in a exiting the game. Mandrake 10, xfree86 version 4.3.0.1, Vendetta-online version 1.0.0 (beta).

You can't run the game with version 1.0.0. You need to run the updater to update it to 1.0.8 before you can play.

roguelazer, your advice is extremely helpful and on-target as always.

XFree86, generally speaking, can only be crashed by its video driver. I saw your bugreport stating you have a GeForce 4 MX440, but what NVidia driver version? 'glxinfo' will probably tell you.
