32 bits (at least that's what the Nvidia driver says). Nvidia GeForce2 MX/MX 400 (64 MB), 96.43.14 driver, using Ubuntu Jaunty 32 bits and the nightly .deb builds. Compiz is off.
Ethnicities look like in the attached image. Apparently, I can only click on the highlighted zone. I couldn't find that zone for the Nilotid and Sudanid.
It seems that the clickable zones aren't set properly.
About the new ethnicity tool, the best way to implement it would be with sliders and, if there are too many races, an "Add/Remove ethnicity" dialog so you only have the sliders for the used ones (specially if all fantasy morphs are implemented as races).
Also, for a more realistic result with less controls, I would separate the head modeling from the body modeling, so the body has few or none ethnic tools and the head has more complex tools such as ethnic brushes, expressions, hair...
In a more extreme attempt to reduce CPU usage, I would add an option to render the body model faceless, or with the face rendered as a 2D texture, and have a separate "head tool" with only the head rendered.
