[nvidia linux driver bug] Segmentation fault when move cursor over game menu

[leolik]

0ad version: 0ad_0.0.0+r08319-1~wfgppa1~maverick1_amd64.deb from ppa:wfg/0ad repository OS: Ubuntu 10.10 amd64

Steps:

1. Run game
2. Move cursor over 'Single Player', 'Multiplayer' or 'Scenario Editor' - game closed with 'Segmentation fault'

[leolik]

Try ppa:wfg/0ad.dev repository. Bug reproduce.

can you try installing the 0ad-dbg and gdb packages, and running 0ad under gdb with:

$ gdb /usr/games/pyrogenesis
(gdb) r

then when it crashes:

(gdb) bt

and attach the output.

Also, are you using the Nvidia drivers? It currently seems there's a bug with them causing the game to crash. For me the game actually ran fine when run through gdb, and we had to work around it to get a back trace in the first place.

[leolik]

Very interesting, but when I run game through gdb - game work fine, bug not reproduced. If run without gdb - segmentation fault (when move cursor over game menu and if click Quit)

I'm using default Ubuntu Nvidia driver. My videocard - GeForce GTS250
