try:
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get install libsdl1.2debian
though i am pretty sure this will not help.
The error means, that one of the subsystems of SDL was not initialized properly, but sprign does currently not log the exact reason of the error, so... maybe someone else has an idea what it woudl be, i do now.
(Will implement logging the error for future spring versions)

the answer of terminal is:
libsdl1.2debian is update at latest version
I thought previously to update this pakage but I have't results.

I solved this problem, with install of SDL library from package .tar.gz : (./configure - make - make install)
