Does this occur only after you have been on a planet and then gone back to space?

nope, i just reproduced the msg by:

game started in windowed mode... in space, f1.. options / selected full screen,
return to cockpit. comes back not in full screen, but a windowed version of full screen . (windowed, but has the 'select windowed mode' icon at the top. after clicking windowed is when it happened.

also happens when coming back from small mode when in full screen mode.

windowed mode works fine

and in windowed mode i belive it is, settings freezes on me going into the categories.. not all the time, like 80% of the time

i cant currently reproduce this on my laptop (which is usually more sensitive to such things than my main comp) so i suspect this might be related to stuff your end, as you suggest. Maybe worth havin a browse for some different vid card drivers?
(If aynone else is gets this same error lemme know pls?)

I used to get occasional fullscreen/f1 type crashes.. seems fixed with 0.49.9.2. Just tested a wide range of fullscreen/windowed/small mode abuse, and it's all stable. Would have tested with cvs but it won't build right now (missing bitmap file, which is odd).

Only other thing occurs is that big white line in the second screenie. No idea if it's relevant but that looks a lot like the big infinite vertex thing in the nebula that oughta be sorted out by now..
