Major bug with 1.73.4 on Lucid
Basically, when trying to display one of Griff's shadery things, the GPU hangs, and it breaks the entire X server. I'm using a self-compiled version.

That’s a bug in your GPU driver. (It may well be triggered by a bug in the shader, but if a shader can freeze the GPU, and the GPU isn’t physically broken, it’s definitely a bug in the driver.) You might want to point the driver’s developers at Oolite and the OXP in question.
