Client crashes permanently since last update - Page 2

Ubuntu Feisty Fawn + backports. No change since last week since the game worked. Pretty standard setup. Disabling sound support seems to work as a temporary fix (but pretty lame since it's useful to know where people are).

I'm giving an update here. I have been playing without sound since the thread and the permanent crashes have stopped (so, there is a bug with sound support, I'll be happy to narrow it down, but it's just not reproducible; it just crashes after a few minutes when I enable sound).

However, I still have the recurring crashes everyone has and I can live with it, but since the sound problem seems easier to identify, maybe there's something to be done there. Especially when it didn't happen before last update.

I also run Ubuntu 7.04
I Started to play just a few days ago.
At first sound did not work and then I did not crash a singel time.
Then i read on the forum, and downloaded a linopenal.so file to get sound working.
When i got sound working I started to crash manicly just like you descrived every few minutes.

Then i played in Windows for a while (Started to play cus of Linux client and still wan to play in Linux!)
In Windows I experienced fewer crashes but still many enugh to destroy the experience! I got my Conj to lvl 18.

Now resently I loged in to Regnum agin in Linux client. and to my suprice I got no sound at all. I keept checking it in options but everytime I went in ther agin it was unchecked. (Have you made Linux client automaticly disable sound)
The game keeps crashing, although more like every 10-20min insted of every 2-5min
The crashes seams to have one thing in common. Im not doin anything special, but I AM doing something.
It never seams to crash if I just stand in one spot and view the screen.
It happen that it crash when I Run, Click on something or zone (ex.Death)

The crashes I ot with sound before was usaly SegFaults.
Now without sound however it is an exception. last I saw something looked like a string overflow.

If you want all my crash_traceback files. PM me a e-mail adress and I send them.

Edit. Seams like PM is not activated on this Forum.
So give me some other means of sending the files if you want them.

Edit2.
Almost forgot. my hardware:
CPU AMD 64 Duel Core 3800+
RAM: 2GB DDR
Gfx: Nvidia GeForce 6800GT PCIe 256 MB

also. I play alot of other games. and no other game crashes for me like this.
