nexuiz-sdl and cat8.9 screen freeze on exit

[djscantron]

Installed 8.9 today and the following things happen in nexuiz.

Changing any graphics option and applying immediately causes the game to crash, but the changes work fine if I restart the game.

Also when the game exits the mouse pointer returns to normal, but the screen never clears and all I see is the nexuiz logo. Things underneath still work though but I have to goto a vt and kill the nexuiz process then when switching back to vt7 everything is back to normal.

nexuiz-glx crashes on gfx settings change as well, but doesn't stay plastered on the screen on exit.

Ubuntu 8.04 i386
Athlon64 X2 3800+
2GB RAM
RadeonHD 3850 256MB pci-e

EDIT: should probobly mention, reverted to 8.8 and everything works fine.
