Looks like the road texture is missing from the bottom image. It works
here at SGI. Maybe you have some texture memory issues. Theoretically
the drivers should page but that's probably where the problem is. On
that card you are trading framebuffer for texture so if you run lower
resolution perhaps you'll get the road texture working.

Cheers,ANgus.

"One of the best-known folk theorems of software engineering is that
60% to 75% of conventional software projects are either never
completed or rejected by their intended users. If that range is
anywhere near true (and I've never met a manager of any experience
who disputes it) then more projects than not are being aimed at goals
which are either (a) not realistically attainable, or (b) just plain
wrong."
