Dragon Quest IX: the initial menu screen is broken

version: 0.9.5, built from scratch with libosmesa
platform: Ubuntu 9.10, Intel X4500MHD

Whether the option "--3d-engine" is set 1 or 2, after the opening animation, the following broken initial game menu screen is given:

Am I missing something for the game?

The rom is playable without problem with No$GBA on the Windows platform of the same machine.
The opening animation is OK. Other 3D games such as Final Fantasy III, IV and Dragon Quest IV are also no problems.

So what's wrong with the setting?
Is there anyone succeeding playing the game on Linux?

Thanks for your confirmation.
BTW, I also try running the game on WIndows XP emulated by VirtualBox inside the same Linux machine and the result is correct.
So, it sounds like a non-trivial problem and requires much more effort to solve.
