"Entering Universe..." Or not...

Sep 05, 2009 Waizujin link
Greetings.
I am trying this game out again. (Tried for 25 minutes before but for some reason I left). Anyway. I am running Ubuntu 9.10 on a Toshiba Satellite M35-S456 laptop with an added 1GB's of RAM. I am on a 3 mbit down, 756 kbit up connection.

I start up the game no problem. I log in, select my character, press play and I get the "Entering Universe..." message (with a cancel button below). Nothing more happens. Just stays that way. I left it for 10 minutes and still nothing. Any ideas?

EDIT: I Posted my error log below.

After I actually read the error log. ROFL. I now understand that it seems to be loading everything fine but the interface. The error log even shows what is said in chat... Sooo. Maybe a graphics problem? Will continue tinkering.

There seem to be issues with the training sectors at the moment.

Maybe that's what you are seeing. If it isn't already it will probably be fixed soonish .. they are usually pretty good about that.
