Bug Description

Binary package hint: abuse-sdl

No matter where or when, I'm not able to shoot correctly to the left side of the character. Just to the top left or down left.
Two screenshots show this. You can see the cursor which moves just tiny bits upwards in the screenshots abusedownleft1.png, abusedownleft2.png and abuseupleft.png

I read the readme and HTML documentation from the package, searched the web with google and searched for similar bugs. No success.

This happens with abuse from and of an uptodate ubunty edgy on two machines (Thinkpad laptop and customized desktop).

Both, the laptop and the desktop, are i386. Any further info needed?

I have had this problem as well. I am running i386, Ubuntu 6.10.

I saw a Debian bug report noting the same thing, and someone there noted that the problem existed on i386 and PPC architectures, but not AMD64.

Same problem here - I also noticed the problem when playing Abuse in the latest stable release of Knoppix, although the problem was not as pronounced as in 'buntu (I'm using Xubuntu Feisty Fawn, Low Latency Kernel - Intel PII processor).

I can't figure out why the "Importance" of this bug is listed as "Undecided" - This is a brilliant game (on Windows) but is unplayable in Linux because of this bug.
