Crash when entering hyperspace

Bugbear · Post by **Bugbear** » Sat Oct 16, 2010 11:21 am

Hi guys, I've started seeing this behaviour only in the last week or two...and odds are it's a Linux issue than an Oolite issue...

I'm running 1.74.2 on Debian with Gnome 2.22.3.

When I'm playing in full screen mode (is there any other way) and jump to witchspace (i.e. 'h' key), the countdown completes, I think i see the witchspace rings but then Oolite terminates and returns me to my desktop. This sin't consistent - the crash doesn't happen every time (I'll start keeping some records on this..)

The kicker is that once I'm back on my desktop, I have no mouse control. So far I've only found that a restart restores my system functionality.

Anyone come across this?

Are you by any chance particularly low on disk space? At least on the Mac Oolite requests a lot of memory when entering a new system and the OS increases its swap space. Then again, the last time I used Linux you had to use a fixed-size swap partition so the disk space problem might not apply here...

If you do get a crash-to-desktop from fullscreen, it's possible that X ends up in an inconsistent state, hence no mouse. Not much we can do about that I don't think.

What we can do though is track down why it's crashing in the first place. Can you please post your Latest.log?

Will do, as soon as I get another crash.

Damn 6 foot rule (for those not in IT, the 6 foot rule is: as soon as someone gets within 6 feet of your computer that is exhibiting problems, the problem will go away).

Finally got my instance of Oolite on Debian Linux to crash while entering witchspace.

Not sure if I contributed to this, though. I had just left the coriolis station and was about to jump to the next system when I saw some white dots on the scanner, in the direction of the planet's surface.

Being the scavenger that I am, I felt a brief dive into the atmosphere wouldn't hurt to gain a couple of extra credits.

Those canisters were deep in the atmosphere - ship status was red and I probably only had 2 or 3 notches left on the altimiter. Happily, I grabbed the containers and proceeded to fly back from the blue skies into the black.

As the sky began darkening, I hit the H key to jump to the next system, and that's when Oolite crashed and I was dumped back into the Debian desktop without mouse control.

I suspect I'm running Oolite on the lower end of machine specifications so it's likely that my problems are self induced.

I'd appreciate if my suspicions could be confirmed though.

Here's the contents of my log file...

Ok, unfortunately that log file doesn't point to any problems.

Another thing you can try is to start Oolite from a Terminal, rather than through the icon.
That way, hopefully, when/if it crashes it may print out some additional information on the TTY.

Hi Bugbear1973,
could you try to get a crash with no OXPs?

Bugbear · Post by **Bugbear** » Tue Nov 30, 2010 11:01 am

Got a crash without OXPs, but I launched via the shortcut...I'll try again with the command line to see if there is any further info to collect.

My pleasure! In fact the pleasure will be greater if we manage to work it out.

1. Backup your xorg.conf

Code: Select all

$ sudo cp -p /etc/X11/xorg.xonf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.beforeoolite

2. Apply the following change in xorg.conf:

Code: Select all

Section "Device"
   Identifier   "Configured Video Device"
   Option "FBTexPercent" "65"   # add this line as shown here
EndSection

3. Perform a full restart, even if just X-server restart is enough, just because
I want you to go into the BIOS and check what is the value of AGP Aperture Size.
Don't change anything! Just keep a note of the current value. We might use it xorg.conf later if necessary.

4. Start oolite from a terminal. Preferably run it in windowed mode (press F12),
in order to keep an eye to the terminal for error messages.
Check if the "unable to allocate texture" messages have been eliminated (or at least reduced!) and/or crashes are gone.
If not, increase the FBTexPercent value in the xorg.conf by increments of 5 (don't go for more than 80) and rerun oolite.
For the xorg.xonf changes to take effect, you just need to restart X-server. If Ctrl+Alt+Backspace doesn't work then read here.

Assumption: I assume you run a native Linux installation and not a virtual one (i.e. VMware, VBox etc.), right?

Note: I also don't like the "ALSA ... underrun occured" message but we will look into it later.

Following a crash,
a. post the terminal output, if any change occured and
b. e-mail me the /var/log/Xorg.0.log (it's a bit big for posting here)

Another star system, another crash...

Launched Oolite from the command line, running it from a window, got maybe 3 or 4 jumps before a crash...

Erk. It looks like Oolite died with an error. When making an error
report, please copy + paste the log above into the report.

An interesting thing when it crashed from windowed mode, I didin't lose mouse control...
