It doesn't touch Mesa/libGL.so, so it will use indirect rendering in the
guest OS and redirect the command stream to the r300 driver on the host
OS. So it's very likley it will give you the same result.
I installed warsow on my Intel notebook and can not reproduce the bug.
When I turn off hardware acceleration via driconf then warsow fails to
start with SIGSEGV while trying to initialize libGL.so. I bet it's a bug
in Mesa ;)
Maybe you can get a backtrace about what's going wrong and if it's in
the r300 library.
