adanaxisgpl segfaults in gravity waves

adanaxisgpl reproducably segfaults on my machine when being under fire from what seems to be a gravity weapon (from the split second i experience the effect and the description of the level)

environment data: ubuntu hardy with proprietory ati driver and adanaxisgpl 1.2.4.dfsg.1-1

steps to reproduce:
- start the level
- pick up the weapons
- take the first of those things in the "lower" part of the screen under fire
- it will fire at you before it is blown to pieces
- the shot passes along you, drags you sideways, and suddenly ther's the segfault

i've uploaded the end of a strace to http://pastebin.com/m2ce82ef9 (plus the parts that seem relevant to me)

Hi,

Thanks, I've just discovered that the same bug is logged in Debian. I'll get on to it.

Hello,

Playing on Ubuntu, and I have the same bug.

Same problem with Ubuntu and ATI driver. However, If I disable the driver, problem still occurs.

Hi all,

Thanks for the feedback. This works fine on my Ubuntu test rig so it's a bit tricky to tackle. Can you give me a few more details about your hardware/software setup? Or can you run adanaxis in gdb and get a backtrace from the crash?

I have the same problem. The proplem occurs when i see the gravity sinks machines.
Here is my computer hardinfo report: http://www.mediafire.com/?z9bwgbb2abz

Sorry for the triplicate post, admin please delete the copys.

I too have the same problem, but I'm using nvidia drivers. Apparently, this is a very widespread bug.

Asus A7N8X Deluxe mobo, Athlon XP2200+ CPU, 1GB RAM, onboard Nvidia graphics
Running Kubuntu 9.04

Please explain how to run Adanaxis in gdb and I would be happy to send the backtrace of the crash.

Using gdb is fairly easy and will get us some information. First install the gdb package, and then open a terminal and type:

gdb adanaxisgpl
run

Play through until the program crashes and then type

bt

and post the whole output here. Depending on where the program crashes, this might not be useful without the debugging symbols. There's a post about how to get them for Ubuntu here:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash

but it might be tricky. Thanks!

I can confirm this with ubuntu 9.10 under nVidia.
Running it says indeed there are no debugging symbols found. Looks kind of complicated to add them... I did what the tutorial said, replacing the package yelp with adanaxisgpl and its current version (which is outputed with apt-cache as explained in the DebuggingProgramCrash from ubuntu)

here:
sudo apt-get install adanaxisgpl-dbgsym=1.2.5.dfsg.1-2ubuntu1

BUt I still get no debugging symbols found, although there's more output:

(gdb) quit

What am I missing... I'd like to help on the debugging of the bug to keep on playing in 4D!

That actually looks pretty good. If you type 'run' (instead of quit), play through until it crashes, and then type 'bt', what do you get?

Silly me...!

ok so I did it, but unfortunately I can't go back to the shell... when played with adanaxisgpl you get a segmentation fault, but when I run it through gdb, it freezes and I can't go back wihtout restarting the XServer... any suggestion?

I'd like to provide feedback... damn it I can't go back to the shell to get the backtrace..!

A few things to try are:

Switch the display mode to a Windowed mode in the adanaxis options just before it crashes.
Log in at one of the console terminals you can get to by pressing Ctrl-Alt-F1 and start adanaxis from there. You might have to set the DISPLAY variable before starting it. Ctrl-Alt-F7 gets you back to the desktop. You need to set DISPLAY to whatever 'echo $DISPLAY' returns from a terminal on the desktop. Probably 'DISPLAY=:0.0' is what you need. This relies on Ctrl-Alt-F1 still working once adanaxis crashes.
ssh in from another machine. The DISPLAY thing might be necessary again.
Use 'gdb adanaxisgpl | tee mylog.txt'. That will at least log gdb output to a file, but you won't be able to enter 'bt' for the backtrace.

I'm running into the same bug, it seems. I managed to get a backtrace through gdb by running adanaxisgpl in Windowed mode, as suggested. I wasn't sure if hardware information would be useful, so I've included the output of 'lshw' as well. If you need any more details I'll be happy to help as best I can.

Software-wise, I'm running Fedora 12, with a dual boot option on a separate physical drive to Windows XP. I *belive* there's no actual video card driver installed (I know fglrx isn't, at least), but I'm not sure how to check. (For what it's worth I only get about 75 fps running glxgears in fullscreen at 1280x1024.)
