Hardware:
Core 2 Duo E5300
2Gb DDR-400
GeForce 7600GT GS+ AGP 512Mb

Problems:
- Land sales listing sorts incorrectly by price, it seems to be missing decimals for accuracy (ie. 512sqm 3200L$ might be higher than 512sqm 3179L$ when sorted lowest price first)
- All more advanced video effects are missing! No water ripple, shiny or bumpmapping for a few. (and yes Nvidia's drivers are loaded)
- Annoyance: swapping with Alt+Tab needs several presses consecutively for it to swap.

Nevermind the fact that it runs slower on Linux than Windows, and occasional extra crashes.

Edit the startup script: put a "#" in front of "export LL_GL_BASICEXT=x" to deactivate the limitation to only basic extensions of OpenGL. (more info in the README-linux.txt file)
