I was having some problems with it, but _only_ when set in RANDOM mode.
Steve from Snow Storm said there was a bug in the OpenGL stuff.  Since
applying the 'm' update I have had no problems.  (with and without
OpenGL
"Gold" (1.1?) release).  (Warp4+fixpack1+Matrox Millenium in
1280x1024x24bit+
SCSI disks+196MB RAM / (same on)Gateway2000 Solo2100 laptop, cirrus
logic 800x600x16bit video (ugh!) + 40MB RAM)

Even so I've ordered version 2

Escape GL is excellent.
