GPL Mirror Errors

Hey everyone,
   I picked up gpl last week and had the same problem with the demo.  The
mirrors display garbage like trees or sky, then flicker to the correct
reflections.  In some parts of tracks there is no problem at all, but in
others the correct relection isnt shown at all - just scenery.  This makes
it extra hard (I dont need any other difficulties :) ) to drive without
blocking people and stuff like that.  Im using a TNT2 with Open gl and 1.2
patches.  Any suggestions?
Thanks
Pete

Set 'block mode transfer' somewhere in the OpenGL advanced setting
of the vidcard. It's discussed before, check www.deja.com.
