ran it in 1920x1200 here at studio orange, on this Sun sponsored monster box - 
no probs (is some fast AMD Opteron but with 32bit ubuntu install, with a 
Quadro FX 1100 (nv36GL it seems))

i have to say i am really happy about all the open source games out there, and 
this seems to be a great addition. perhaps my kid does not need to pirate 
when he grows up.. he just had his first platform jumping experience with 
Supertux during christmas (had earlier played tuxrace of course), and perhaps 
can try pyspacewar if ever gets interested in that sort of games (i enjoyed 
things like Turboraketti or something on Amiga with friends a lot when was a 
kid .. and later was impressed by the x11 using networked thing ppl played at 
uni)
