Bug#546538: warzone2100: 546538: probably a driver/KMS issue

This is very likely to be a bug in the newer version of your driver, the
kernel or mesa. Please reassign it to the appropriate xserver-xorg-video
package and set the affects to warzone2100.

I imagine a debugging session in #debian-x or the appropriate upstream
IRC channel will be needed to figure this issue out.

It would be very much worth installing some other OpenGL games/packages
and trying them to see if any others have the same issue.

Here is a bug that looks similar that might have hints about what
workarounds might be available:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/warzone2100/+bug/374531

The obvious workaround to try would be to disable KMS and downgrade to
testing instead of unstable, IIRC the X stack hasn't migrated to testing
since before lenny was released.
