--- Comment #6 from GyB gyebro69@gmail.com 2012-03-19 14:04:00 CDT --- I tried the game across various disks/partitions on my system, but the result didn't make any sense to me. Let's assume the following setup: 2 internal HDDs (sda, sdb) + 1 external usb HDD (sdc).
-sda carries my system (/boot /root /var /tmp /home + 1 additional data partition). All of them (except /boot) are formatted as ext4. When the game is installed on this disk, either in /home or in /data, the problem exists.
-sdb has 3 partitions (2x ext4, 1x ext3). The game runs *without* the problem when installed 2 of the 3 partitions (1x ext3, 1x ext4), but shows the problem on the 3rd partition (ext4).
- sdc has 2 partitions (1x ext3, 1x ext4). The problem exists on both partitions.
So there are 2 partitions on one of my disks where the game shows subtitles correctly.
