1.0.7 on Ubuntu 11.10 major instabililty

    Just to say, I'm running arch linux and as of yesterday was having the same problem, segfaults at random points. This was on my desktop with an nvidia card, and was unable to replicate on my netbook with some intel card. So I thought it might be some gfx card thing.

    That said, I played around with the dredmor/x86 folder and it now seems to not segfault (although it may just be a matter of time before it happens again, but I actually managed to clear the first level and it did not segfault at any point).

    I backed up the .so files and replaced them with links to the .so files I already have in /usr/lib/ so something like:
    Code:
    cd /PATH/dredmor/x86
    mkdir backup
    mv * backup
    ln -s /usr/lib/libgcc_s.so.1 libgcc_s.so.1
    ln -s /usr/lib/libSDL_image-1.2.so.0 libSDL_image-1.2.so.0
    ln -s /usr/lib/libSDL_ttf-2.0.so.0 libSDL_ttf-2.0.so.0
    ln -s /usr/lib/libSDL-1.2.so.0 libSDL-1.2.so.0
    ln -s /usr/lib/libSDL_mixer-1.2.so.0 libSDL_mixer-1.2.so.0
    ln -s /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6 libstdc++.so.6
    
    As I said, it seems to work at the moment, but I haven't tested it for more than about 20mins. Also I have just done a system upgrade so that could have fixed it! Let me know if you want any more details.

    Same thing as everyone on this thread, with Kubuntu 11.04 32 bit.
    I look forward to play this game, the only one that made me buy the bundle (I already have aquaria ) ! That's quite a disapointment
    And as someone asked before, if the 1.0.7 can't be fixed easily, could we have the 1.0.6 to downlaod on the humble bundle site ?
    One of the point of buying a game that runs on linux is tha I don't have to instal and run steam on wine...

    Just wanted to add my name to the list, I'm running it in Linux Mint 11 LXDE, though it sounds like it's pretty much happening to everyone regardless of distro. I'm not getting any error messages or anything, it just closes out randomly and I'm fairly useless with the terminal so I have no idea how to debug it (or even run it) that way, I'd be happy to do that if someone can tell me how.

    This is where it crashes for me: going from Level 2 to Level 3.

    This is the trace:

    Using psychic shove or a handy want causes the game to freeze every time. Ubuntu 11.10 x64. The game freezes or crashes so often that it's basically unplayable.

    FYI, this one in particular looks like the issue described over here: http://community.gaslampgames.com/threads/statue-of-inconsequentia-crash.1318/

    There's a patch in that thread which should probably take care of it for you. In Level 3 specifically is where I started running into the monsters that were affected by this bug; I'm guessing that the folks experiencing problems right at the beginning are encountering some other issue.

    The problem has been found, and we have heaped verbal abuse upon the culprit.

    Patch on the way.

    I'll test it after work (~2hrs) if no one else can get to it before then.

    I tried to run the patch, here is what I got:
    Code:
    ../Dredmor-x86
    dungeons of dredmor: version 1.0.7
    argv[i]: ../Dredmor-x86
    SDL version 1.2.14
    Segmentation fault

    Don't run the patch directly; run the shell script.

    Do we unpack it directly in the dredmor folder?
     
  13. Nicholas

    Nicholas Technology Director Staff Member

    Yep. It should overwrite the two files that are there. Then just run the game by running "./Dredmor" as per usual.
     
  14. For me it works!!!.. at last i can play longer than 5 minutes!!!

    Thanks Nicholas!.

    OK sorry for that, it does work once you use it properly ;)

    Edit: And thank you for this patch

    Hey, just found this patch, hope it works ^^
    Didn't made some longer tests.
    The only thing i've tested where the summon wyrmling spell and it still crashs the game

    Code:
    Dredmor-amd64: /home/${USERNAMEOFTHECODER}/dredmor/monster.cpp:400: Monster::Monster(monDBEntry*): Assertion `(entry->level - curLevel->number < 4) || entry->name == "Brax"' failed.

    So far so good. I'm not crashing for the moment. I can't speak for late-game bugs like the wyrmling bug above because I've not gotten that far.

    That seems to work, although I've had a few crashes when picking up sidequests.

    The patch helps quite a bit. From my initial testing, handy wands and bombing oneself do not cause crashing anymore. I'll test it out further tonight.

    Seemed to make a bit of difference but the game crashed when I tried to use a quest item on a monolith :(
