Maybe it is related to this bug, at least, it seems to me to be: I have the problem since this bug appeared, or both bugs appeared at the same time :-)

Betreff: [Bug 99359] Re: planetpenguin-racer does not show text

Same here. I did an upgrade from edgy to feisty using Update manager
(I have not tried this with a fresh install of feisty yet).

Ppracer just shows just a few faint dots of garbage where the menu text
should be.

I am using a Matrox g400 video card with the mga driver.

Then I used
dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
to switch to the vesa driver.

Could this be a problem in mga?
There were some mga issues in edgy.

When I used the vesa driver the menu text showed normally, but without
the 3d acceleration, the game is too slow to play.

Steps to reproduce with Feisty:

1. Use a Matrox g400 video card
2. Use the mga driver
3. Start ppracer
4. Observe that there is no readable menu text

(My kids love this game. Please fix.)

The Matrox g400 has worked well in the past for me
using ppracer with Debian on the same machine (AMD Sempron).
