Run in a console with the --no-opengl switch.

Along the same lines, just got registered yesterday and played for a few fun hours, then when I tried to run again the TWM window wouldn't open.
ran from console bare
Code: Select all
me@mymachine:~$ tmw
Couldn't set 800x600x0 video mode: Could not create GL context
me@mymachine:~$
So I figured to try the same trick using --no-opengl
Code: Select all
me@mymachine:~$ tmw --no-opengl
tmw: unrecognized option '--no-opengl'
tmw
Options:
-h --help : Display this help
-v --version : Display the version
-u --skipupdate : Skip the update process
-d --data : Directory to load game data from
-U --username : Login with this username
-P --password : Login with this password
-D --default : Bypass the login process with default settings
-p --playername : Login with this player
-C --configfile : Configuration file to use
-H --updatehost : Use this update host
-S --homedir : Directory to use as home directory
me@mymachine:~$
any other secret options I can try?

Updating your client.
If yours doesn't have that option, it's too old for use on our server. 0.0.29.1 is the minimum supported version.
You can build a newer one or use a Windows one under wine (works perfectly).

Hmm, ok ubuntu repository picked out 0.0.28.1 for me
Is there a repository for the latest version?
Or do I have to git my hands dirty (pun intended) building from source

1. You can use git version and compile.
2. You can use windows nightly build in wine.

3. Or use unofficial repo with extended client.
