Your GPU driver is probably not configured with DDS / S3TC texture (de)compression support. There should be an option to enable it in driconf, but check the output of glxinfo for "EXT_texture_compression_s3tc" or "EXT_texture_compression_dxt1" before and after doing this.

NB: "CAICOS" is the codename for AMD's HD6400 which at best qualified as an entry-level card in early 2011, so you may experience other glitches.

I had to install driconf, but once I did it was a simple matter to check a box. It got s3tc and dxt1 both to come up on glxinfo. I guess it just means both types are supported now? Anyway, it seems to work on the spring engine, so I'm happy :). Thank you for the support.
