openarena runs slow(lags) on 12.04

Asked by ExperiencedNoobie

Hi,
I am using the latest ubuntu release 12.04 upgraded online from previous release 11.10 Till this release openarena was working perfect but last night I upgraded to 12.04 and now openarena terribly lags / runs slow. Even the blue background water like thing animation is very slow and the game lags badly from start to exit even in menu.

I am using AMD Sempron 2600+ 1.5GHz 1GB RAM, K8M800 motherboard Dual boot along side Windows XP.

Even if you are the only one experiencing the problem it is likely to be a bug, but make sure you have updated the graphics drivers.

Can you help with this problem?
