Oolite Bulletins

After applying some updates to my Debian Jessie installation, Oolite (and oolite-trunk) simply stopped working and I just can't sort it out. So if anyone has some idea how to sort it, I'll be a happy man.

The error I'm getting is this: It clearly suggests that there is some problem with pulseaudio, but all seems to be in order. Pulseaudio is installed and other games, like Hedgewars, play nicely.

A quick search from the web shows that there are others that have seen the same problem with some other games, but I found no definitive solution. My guess is that some update removed something that is needed, but that's just guessing.

Edit: Found it. It was a graphics issue! . Nvidia's GLX driver was not installed, it had been overwritten by the system in the previous system update.

Try adding to ~/.alsoftrc

If it is pulseaudio, then that will make it use some other backend. (Or you could try uninstalling pulseaudio temporarily)

Found the problem. It was not pulseaudio after all. I spent a couple of hours uninstalling and reinstalling system components to finally find out that it was the glx driver that had been overwritten . All is well again . I'll be updating my oxps to oxzs again.
