RO Segfault - Page 6

onemyndseye · 02-25-2009, 06:41 AM

I have had no luck playin with WINE either...

nor have I gotten any further getting RO working. NGD still has not responed to this thread nor have they opened/looked at the bug report I filled ..

disappointing indeed

I succeeded in playing with wine.
But it is really not a good solution :
- using direct3D, the FPS are very slow
- using openGL, the FPS are very good and similar to those I had with the linux client before the segfault
But using wine, linux Client with the openGL option leads to a systematic crash after 20 or 60 minutes playing depending on what youre doing (it is worse in wars). The keyboard does not respond when the crash arises, which is strongly annoying. But anyway that is a different subject.
Did you try to switch to openGL using the windows client ?

However, the fact that the windows client seems to work with openGL nicely let me think that the error does not lie in our 3D configuration but in the linux client himself... as pointed out by Mashu, if I correctly understood what he reported.

oh most certainly this is the case...

But as a Linux household this solution sucks as bad as playing under wine. Alas I did "borrow" a copy of WinXP and continue to play. But I consider this issue fixed about as much as putting a BandAid on a shark bite. Myself and Im sure a good number of other users came to play this game because it has a Linux client. If I wished to play a MMORPG in WinXP there is a vast amount of choices.

And again I have to say I would not be so hostile about this if it wasnt for NGD's COMPLETE LACK OF RESPONSE not the fact that the client isnt working.

As a business owner myself I am assured that if I ignored crys for help/advice from my customers I wouldnt be in business for very long.

Keep in mind that the Linux client isn't supported officially at all, and that NGD provides it only out of courtesy to the Linux users.

sure... I understand that. Hence I wish for a simple reply - not a fix

First of all, I need a fix for this too, my girlfriend can no longer play on her laptop anymore, for the same reasons as explained :-\

Then, a bit offtopic maybe, but:

I don't think that is true. Why you ask?

That would mean it is officially supported, no? :-)

My 2nd computer running ubuntu 8.10 with an intel card has this same issue since the update. The backtrace is identical to the one imefisto posted.

Somebody in my clan suggested downgrading to ubuntu 7.10 since it's more stable, so I'll try that.

onemyndseye · 03-19-2009, 10:13 AM

******* UPDATE ********

This problem DOES NOT persist in Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy. So if downgrading (read Reinstalling) is an option for you this will fix the problem. Atleast for ATI cards. Hopfully someone will confirm that Hardy is working with INTEL cards as well.

Again, thanks to all that have tried so hard to resolve this issue in Ibex.. I will keep looking for a working solution for Ubuntu Ibex and above.. but for now HUUUUNNNNT!!!!!

I ve juste downgrade to ubuntu 8.04, and the problem is solved also for me and my Intel GMA 945 Video Card.

Thank you all !

Hally · 03-20-2009, 08:13 PM

Pff, in fact the segfault persists for me under Hardy, but it happens a few minutes after starting to play !

EDIT : this is the backtrace

Code:

libs/libcore_client.so(_ZN10ClientBase14save_backtraceEv+0x79) [0xb7d1e259]
libs/libcore_client.so(_ZN10ClientBase12client_crashEi+0x1b) [0xb7d1e52b]
[0xb7f0f420]
[0xb0e9c0c8]
