Hi,
The youtube video linked in the first comment has very likely been taken with gallium nine (gearsongallium mentionned in the video was a website of a gallium nine tester with a lot of performance comparisons and tests, plus a distro with gallium nine).
Then maybe the 64 bit version of the game was used, since comment 3 mentions t his version works better. I haven't tested the game myself.
The game uses OpenGL, so gallium nine wouldn't make a difference. Could very well be 64bit though.
I was quite convinced that it was something specific to AMD given that the 11.11a catalyst driver is specifically mentioned as fix for a very similar problem, and the release notes mention fixes specific to the 32bit version.
I'm not so sure anymore though, if it is reproducible on 64bit too.
There's also this an entry about a similar problem on the PC Gaming Wiki, suggestions include turning off anisotropic filter, antialiasing or Catalyst A.I. (whatever that is?): https://pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/RAGE#Corrupted.2C_black.2C_jagged_or_dotted_te...
Even if it is a game bug, it would be nice to find a workaround.
