|
|
I installed pingus throgh portage but it crashes as soon as a level starts. I receive lot of errors like Code: | Error: XMLhelper: Encoding failed: ret: 4 in: 4 out: 4 str: ROT0 | and fially when the game crashes i get something like Code: | exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
*** glibc detected *** free(): invalid next size (normal): 0x00000000008273a0 ***
Aborted
|
Has anybody got any suggestion on how to make it work? Thanks. |

i dont have this problem and i dont have pingus but my guess is that you're using the unstable glibc or gcc (3.4). You could either try solving the problem by changing compiler and recompiling pingus or directly solve the free() issue with a patch of some sorts. Try looking around on the forums I'm pretty sure you'll find the solution. _________________ Animula vagula blandula,

My specific error is different - I just get a SIGSEGV.
If I debug it with gdb pingus, I get
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
[Switching to Thread 16384 (LWP 6075)]
0x00002aaaac0ce803 in memcpy () from /lib/libc.so.6
As soon as I start a level.

Download the binary... looks like the only way ATM. Yes, its a 32bit binary, but it runs. _________________ Gentoo HP ProBook 6540b |

Just get the 32 bit binary, you're not going to get a performance boost in FPS if you compile it in 64 bit mode anyways. |
