[solved] id-Shooters crashing after intro

Hi archers,

some days ago I did the usual pacman -Syu and suddenly quake3 and enemy-territory fail to start the menu..
all that works is the intro video, after that the game hangs (sound continues) and I have to restart x. this applies to both games.
already tried reinstalling them..
btw other OpenGL applications (Neverball, Tuxracer, etc) still do work, and glxinfo gives me direct rendering: Yes.

any clever suggestions? 

edit: finally solved!! 8)
modified  /usr/bin/enemy-territory:

#!/bin/sh
cd /opt/enemy-territory
./bin/et.x86 +set r_ext_compiled_vertex_array 0 $*
