OK I switched to open source driver, but this is not the way for me. Firstly I could not make my second monitor work but most importantly game started and was worse than useless - just moving mouse to find "Quit Game" and confirm with "Yes" took me several minutes. RadeonHD 7950 is even today considered decent card by most and it indeed performed well while I suffered windows on my disk. So obviously either binary blob or opensource amd drivers for linux are ...what they are. And what I really dont get is that while opensource software completely and irreversibly pwned proprietary software in server computing, embeded, mobile, etc. in gaming world even with major players like Valve we dont see real progress in GPU drivers. But lets leave my whining now. Do you have any more ideas? I am thinking about getting my linux on btrfs and brute-forcing (snapshot+try+restore_snapshot+try_next) into version of catalyst which works...

Hey, I too have this problem, libtxc-dxtn-s2tc0:i386 already installed - no change. This used to work before very well then I either updated the tdm binary or anything in system and game started segfaulting at start. I can provide core dump or whatever needed to debug it. Anyone?
