New Problem - High Frame Rate
Alright! SDL_image was the problem after all. Everything looks to be loading just fine. Unfortunately another problem has cropped up. VDrift seems to be running way too fast. At least that's what the FPS tells me; it says it's running at around 1000 FPS for menus and 700-750 for races. Is there anyway to limit the frame rate? This eats up 100% of one of my cores (running on an i5 2500K) so something doesn't seem right about that. This happens even when I use the "-multithreaded" CLI argument

EDIT: Nevermind, silly me. The problem was with the nVidia driver settings. "Sync to VBlank" needed to be checked. Now VDrift runs at 60FPS and barely breaks 30% of one of my CPU cores. The game works like a charm. I'm writing articles about games on Linux right now and VDrift is one of them. Evertything looks and works great at the moment. Now, if only I knew how to drive decently... Anyway, thanks for the help!
