Spring RTS Engine

Ubuntu 9.10 (karmic)
Kernel 2.6.31.19-generic
E8400 3.00 GHz
Nvidia 9800 GT (latest drivers)


Spring is eating CPU like a monster with the recent update. Game becomes unplayable.

Spring process also does not stop after game ends.

Any takers?

[EDIT]

Attempting a removal of pulseaudio (fuck this shitty subsystem) - all the more reason to dump Ubuntu for something that doesn't include shitty fucking audio.

Remove PulseAudio - fuck Ubuntu devs for this shitty sound system

ALL IS WELL NOW WITH REMOVAL OF PULSING SHIT AUDIO - FUCK THEM

Here is what I did to remove pulse audio in Karmic:

sudo apt-get purge pulseaudio gstreamer0.10-pulseaudio
sudo apt-get autoremove

sudo apt-get install alsa-base alsa-tools alsa-tools-gui alsa-utils alsa-oss linux-sound-base alsamixergui

sudo apt-get install esound esound-clients esound-common libesd-alsa0 gnome-alsamixer

restart your computer!

Notes:
-run gstreamer-properties in terminal to set defaults to alsa (the old system/preferences/sound in jaunty)
-remove gstreamer0.10-pulseaudio to get sound in totem
-gnome-alsamixer is for changing the volume, not an applet but better that nothing

Enjoy!
