Help. Ufoai 2.3 crashes after initial screen
« on: October 01, 2010, 01:21:36 am »
Ufoai 2.3 on Ubuntu 10.04 crashes immediately after initial screen. My video card is ATIXpress 200M
Console log says this:

How did you installed it?

Playdeb or SVN?

Edit
Do you have 3d acceleration in your machine? Type (in terminal)

Code: [Select]
glxinfo | grep render
It should show something like this

Code: [Select]
direct rendering: Yes
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI R300 (RV515 7145) 20090101 x86/MMX/SSE2 TCL DRI2
[/s]
Wrote too soon, I can see from your log that that isn't the problem.

As long as I can guess (not dev...) you seem to lack SDL_ttf at least 2.0.7 (as far as I know it is a font something that the interface uses) see if you have the libsdl-ttf2.0-0 package installed (it is in ubuntu repo's, at least in mine...).

I looked up and I have the libsdl-ttf2.0-0 package installed. The game was installed via playdeb, but at the end of the installing process I got an error message that said something like ufoai server could not be installed.
Thanx for replying and for your help.

sdl_ttf 2.0.9 is installed (according to the logs)

what we need is a backtrace. i hope the getdeb build contains debug symbols. let's find out:
* open a terminal
* cd /path/to/ufoai/binary/not/shell/script
* gdb ufo
* run +set vid_fullscreen 0

once it crashed type:
* bt full
and post that output here.

I've tried the commands you've write me about, but they are not working: laptop:~$ bt full
bt: command not found; probably it's me (I'm not a linux genius as u can see)
I've started the game from terminal although. Here is the output:

My guess: it's the driver.

Your GPU is ATIXpress 200M, which is basically Radeon X300 and as such uses the free/open radeon driver, which is good enough for desktop effects, but IMO is still not ready for games.

Since you can't use any other driver (fglrx requires currently at least Radeon HD2000 series), I would recommend getting some new hardware. Or wait till the new ubuntu release (which should be sometime next month), maybe a new driver version will help.

It's a laptop, hard to upgrade the hardware :P

Well, try with compiz off.

How is your performance (type glxgears in command line and tell us the frames it shows)?

You miss the point :-). This is not about the card performance.

In eee you got Intel GMAwhatever, with full opengl support.

totdragos has an old Ati GPU that's unable to use the properietary driver (Ati/AMD dropped support for every card older than HD2xxx some time ago), that's why he's using the open source radeon driver, which AFAIK doesn't support opengl to its full.

If totdragos would downgrade his xorg and kernel (not a good option) to the last version that's able to use fglrx I recon UFO would run fine.

Possible solutions: get new laptop (duh ;-P ) or wait for the next ubuntu release (10 oct), which will have a newer version of the radeon driver that maybe will have better opengl support.

Yes, I agree Ati showed it's users the middle finger by dropping support for older cards, but the new Radeons are just great (I got HD3850) ;-). Note the performance and compatibility of the open source drivers will get better with time (in 2D it's already better than the properietary).

I've installed Ubuntu 8.04. So far so good, meaning I've managed to get the ati driver
Now the glx gears shows, with visual effects set to high:

3655 frames in 5.0 seconds = 730.892 FPS
3714 frames in 5.0 seconds = 742.717 FPS
3715 frames in 5.0 seconds = 742.906 FPS
3715 frames in 5.0 seconds = 742.824 FPS
3715 frames in 5.0 seconds = 742.847 FPS
3710 frames in 5.0 seconds = 741.818 FPS

Last night I've installed ufoai 2.2.1 It runs fine, but it doesn't have skirmish mode, and I also was wondering if possible to install the 2.3 version on hardy?
Anyway, after reading your suggestions the most applicable in order to play ufoai was hardy 8.04 installation
Thanks again for your advices

It is possible, but you'd probably have to compile it yourself + probably have to compile some of the libraries that need newer versions too. It's a bit of extra work, but it should be possible.
