Hi,
Graphic card model ? Debian distribution ? Driver version ?
Also did you find any meaningful error message in /var/log/Xorg.0.log ?
You can narrow it with
egrep '((WW)|(EE))' /var/log/Xorg.0.log
Did you try to launch game from a console and see if it spits out any
error message ?
Do other similar games run fine, is it a specific problem with openarena ?
Regarding radeon performances in general, with some cards you'll be able
to play 3D intensive games, with other you won't and be forced to use
proprietary driver to squeeze enough frames out of the hardware, your
mileage may vary.
