This Tetris clone has sucked from the first day I tried it. First of all, it is 14 units across, instead of the usual 10. On my computer it has always played less than 1fps, even after a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.04. This is seriously screwed up, because I can play OpenArena at full speed. I would recommend Ltris or petris if you want Tetris on your Linux box.

I want to know, has anyone else has experienced problems with Quadrapassel/Gnometris?

I just played and had no speed issues, though I agree that the width was annoying. My favorite tetris game of all time is EGAint. I'll have to get it again and play in DosBox.
