I've just downloaded the 6-20-2010 release version and installed it on a windows vista laptop. When I start the game a window comes up with SDL in the title bar, then closes down.
The stderr.txt file in the program folder is empty, and stdout.txt has this in it:
Code:

..and that's all I can find as far as diagnostic messages. Is it the case that if my laptop doesn't support framebuffers the game won't start up? (The graphics card is a couple of years old and can handle vertex and fragment shaders, though not geometry shaders.)
