Segfault on startup

[morse]

I just installed spring engine from gentoo overlay.

Spring engine crashes any time I start a game, here is the output

Segmentation fault (SIGSEGV) in spring 0.81.2.1
Stacktrace:

Translated Stacktrace:

I can see no stacktrace, regardless if I have compiled with or without "debug" flag, so I can't even guess what is wrong.

we need a better font (fixed size) for the code part, for me it is not showing right :/
also, it is obviously not clear enough. suggestions to make it clearer?

~/.springrc, try:

Code: Select all

Shadows=-1

[morse]

Yes, I tried it without the shadows. It was the same, so I stopped editing conf file manually after every springsettings run.
Just to clear my conscious I just edited it again, the result is pretty much the same (pasting only last lines).

try turning off more things in the settings (ground decals maybe?).
if it does not help, read what i quoted in my last message.

[morse]

I already have disabled everything I could think of, and yes, I know that my laptop's 3D capabilities are...
well, you know...
insufficient.
But I also read this in your wiki page
http://springrts.com/wiki/Requirements

Code: Select all

Intel Celeron 1.2 GHz 	512 MB 	Intel 915GM (laptop/integrated) 	1024x768; near minimum settings 	Works fine on maps 16x16 and smaller. 6 players is about the most it can handle, maybe only 4 on large maps with lots of units. 

The configuration is even slower then mine, and supposed to be working. So I wonder if this segfault is a bug? And why there is no details in stacktrace.

[hoijui]

it is a lie. i do not know who but that there, but be aware that you are comparing the wiki (and this particular entry must be from 2008 or earlier, probably much older) to the engine its self, which probably is more up to date.
an other thing missing in the wiki is the OS. As we all know, GFX support under windows and Linux is often incomparable (especially with ATI and Intel cards). just forget trying to play with an Intel 945 under Linux, you can get it to run, i did it, but it is not usable for playing.
You know.. we do not get any money from the computer industry when you buy a new system, we would not suggest buying a new system/GFX card if it were not totally necessary (in case spring is enough important for you).
