Very odd. Could you send me the save-file please?

Mmm. It's not crashing here, so I guess it might be an SDL problem or a divide-by-zero problem. Until we can get more data on the crash I won't know.

How can i get more data?

Another problem whith that version: no "yellow" text messages (about bounty, cargo scooped, whitchjumps etc etc, at the bottom) are shown. "blue" ones (at the top, communication log) are ok.

Known and fixed.

As to more data I'm not sure how crash reports are handled with Linux/SDL.

Generally, you need a core dump (you need to turn core dumps on, and I think there was some SDL configuration also - I don't remember what, but it's been discussed in the past). If I find a reproducible crash I just usually run in the debugger!

Will SDL crash produce coredump if i just ulimit -c some size?

Another way of getting some (limited) information from a Segfault crash is to run 'strace' on the application when you start up (man strace will give some options)

'strace oolite' should get it going. It will make your console log go nuts compared to normal.

look at the last several lines before strace tells you 'caught signal: SEGSEV' something similar.
