Sorry if this bug has been reported before...
Messing around with Mars textures, I defined a NormalMap texure and I got this strange problem where the only parts of the surface texture rendered were the highland (I think ) areas.
See;
Here's all those beautiful driver details and stuff...

Normal map - strange bug
Normal map - strange bug
"I have been asked, 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question."
I had the same problem, but while i was using a bumpmap as a normalmap, so you should be sure, that you are using a normalmap.(they are sort of pink color, bumpmaps are greyscale)
this also happens, when you use a surface map (the surfacetexture of the planet, very strange, that it does not have a special name).
this ist a normalmap:
This ist a Bumpmap:
and this the surface texture:
Hope I could help you
