I had this happen to me... only thing is i can't remember how i fixed it. :| I know that I had to have someone help me navigate through the menus (since i couldn't read them) and then i had to change one of the settings.

what about just deleting user.cfg

in ~/application data/armgetronag/vars/

where ~ defines path to your username folder that is the path for windows

linux ~/.armagetronad/vars/

On linux that happens if libSDL is not compiled with enough image formats, I forget which one actually did it, probably png support.

Could be anything in the chain between storage (indeed PNG) and eventual display, not just SDL. Maybe the OpenGL implementation doesn't handle one of 16-bit or 32-bit textures for some reason, or alpha blending was turned off (if the current font textures have all information in alpha), or something else that doesn't come to mind happened.
