Try disabling shaders. It's possible that your driver or card are too old or 
unsupported.

I don't think that a GF8600 GT is old enough...

I have the same issue. From what I could gather the problem is that something 
changed between python-pyvorbis between 1.4 and 1.5 that both 3.121 and 
up-to-date git 4.0 doesn't like. I was able to work around it by keeping 
python-pyvorbis at 1.4 but that probably won't be an option forever. Another 
possibility is to find a 1.4 build (from an older generation repo, for example) 
and extracting pyvorbis.deb:/usr/lib/pyshared/python2.6 to 
/path/to/your/fofix/install/pyvorbis and start FoFiX with 
PYTHONPATH=/path/to/your/fofix/install/pyvorbis python2.6 
/path/to/your/fofix/install/src/FoFiX.py

If I knew Python I'd attempt to debug it, but I can't, so the best I can do is 
offer this possible work-around to anyone who stumbles upon this in the future 
if it remains unfixed.
