Ubuntu 9.10 Black Screen on Machinarium Launch

[tecknomage]

Ubuntu 9.10 (Linux) & Machinarium v3

Yes, I know there are numerous posts on this, but NONE provide a CLEAR solution.

I have a launcher in the Games Menu.  I do get the "[Esc] out of full screen mode."

But nothing happens if I use [Esc] or not, just a black screen.

This is the command in the Launcher: /home/tecknode/Machinarium/Machinarium

Is there something missing, like a switch to run in windowed mode & get Machinarium to run

Hi
With this command, the game doesn't have access to its data (yes, it's a weird Flash behavior). See the topic Create a launcher on Linux to see which command you can use in the launcher.
And about the Esc key, it doesn't work. Never.
