spring crashes on start with "realloc(): invalid next size"

Aste88 · Post by **Aste88** » 10 May 2010, 14:56

Hi everyone,
I've spent last four days trying to install and configure spring with no success.

My machine is a HP pavillion dv6790el laptop with nVidia GeForce 8400M GS video card running ubuntu 10.04 LTS.

I first installed the spring-engine and spring-lobby packages from ubuntu's repo, spring seemed to work fine if but springlobby couldn't start the game. I then purged the packages and proceeded to compile both programs from source.
Compilation went fine except a few warnings, now springlobby works better but the game still won't start.

This is the error I'm getting (running in single player mode, I haven't tried yet multiplayer):

Code: Select all

aste@dv6790el:~$ springlobby

I hope I've provided enough infos and I apologize for any lexical mistake I might have made (I'm Italian).
Any help would be very appreciated!

hey!

in the future, please always give complete infologs, and attach them as file or through pastebin.com.
springlobby had a bug in version.. 0.79 (i think), which made spring crash in singleplayer games. sounds like you suffered from that. this is now fixed though, and you seem to have compiled a version in which it is fixed already.

so you could remove the spring you compiled yourself (/usr/local/ stuff), and try the default spring from ubuntu with the self compiled springlobby. this seems not to be your problem though. it looks like a GFK card/driver related crash (the first one, second is in the AI). so using different drivers, or different graphic settings for spring might help.

I've found a solution by installing the nVidia driver from their website (195.36.24 instead of 195.36.15).

Basically you have to remove and blacklist the new 2d nouveu driver and any nvidia driver installed from the repository, then stop the X server and run the executable downloaded from http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html.

Works great now!
