The 'Intel' bit is a giveaway. This is as much a problem with the Intel
drivers having poor OpenGL support as it is with Ubuntu making poor
driver choices for 9.04.

This is NOT a problem with Warzone -- and these is little that we
developers can do about it. The problems are with the Intel drivers.

Maybe you could persuade the Ubuntu developers to add Warzone to their
QA/test suite. Just because a set of drivers will run compiz and
glxgears does not mean that it is release-worthy ;)
