I'm just found log into ~/.WorldOfGoo/WorldOfGoo.log Quote: [t=0.00] Failed to read persistent data from "/home/alex/.WorldOfGoo/pers2.dat"!

Because it was all meant to work magically out of the box. ;-) This looks like a problem with the X server or video drivers not supporting OpenGL. What hardware and drivers are you using? Do simple OpenGL apps like glxgears work? Your symptoms look similar to this guy's although it isn't exactly clear what was wrong in his case.

Yes, at work I use nv driver, without OpenGL support. At home with proprietary driver from NVidia works fine :) PS. summary fixed
