sounds in linux

[g1mp]

probably, i got those names from my synaptic package manager, so most likey they are 64bit

Could you post the whole console log? Nexuiz should complain if it can't load a library and it would be very helpfun to know which one exactly.
Then again the .deb packages in debian (which i guess ubuntu also uses) have dependencies for all the needed libraries includeing oggvorbis.. Are you sure everthing is correctly installed?

[g1mp]

they should be installed correctly if nexuiz is the only thing having the problem... ill edit this post with the console log in a second


found it the problem:

Trying to load library... "libvorbis.so.0" - loaded.
Trying to load library... "libvorbisfile.so.3" "libvorbisfile.so" "./libvorbisfile.so.3" "./libvorbisfile.so" - failed.
Ogg Vorbis support disabled

Does the symlink /usr/lib/libvorbisfile.so.3 actually exist? And does it point to libvorbisfile.so.3.1.1?
If not, try 'aptitude reinstall libvorbisfile3'.

[g1mp]

i already checked that the symlink was correct, and i already tried reinstalling the package...

edit** idk whats going on, i think im the only one that ever had this problem and i have no clue why i even have it, everything works with vorbis/ogg except this game. Is it worth all the trouble its giving me?

[esteel]

Are you using the nexuiz-21.zip from nexuiz.com? Or some ubuntu packages?
The ones in debian sid work fine for me, maybe those are not that same as are used in ubuntu and if there is a problem with those the problems should be fixed.

And yeah imo its worth the trouble.. its a good game and when we fix the problems you will have helped making it even better! This can be a good feeling!

[g1mp]

yea, i really want to fix it, even if its just for the "glory" of overcoming a problem, anyway i just downloaded nexuiz-21.zip from the main website because i saw no other alternative

[esteel]

Well did it work any better with that one? If so we need someone with ubuntu to find the differences in the two..
Hmm guess you figured it out but you just need to extract the zip file and start one of the two nexuiz-linux-glx.sh or nexuiz-linux-sdl.sh like:
cd PATH-YOU-WANT-NEXUIZ
unzip DOWNLOAD-PATH/nexuiz-21.zip
cd Nexuiz
./nexuiz-linux-sdl.sh OR ./nexuiz-linux-glx.sh

if you want it to be for all users:
become root
cd /usr/local/games
unzip DOWNLOAD-PATH/nexuiz-21.zip
cd /usr/local/bin
ln -s /usr/local/games/Nexuiz/nexuiz-linux-glx.sh nexuiz-linux-glx.sh
ln -s /usr/local/games/Nexuiz/nexuiz-linux-sdl.sh nexuiz-linux-sdl.sh
Now every user should be able to start nexuiz with as /usr/local/bin should be in PATH..
nexuiz-linux-sdl.sh OR nexuiz-linux-glx.sh

[g1mp]

no, i meant i've had nexuis-21.zip since the beginning of the problem


edit** i fixed it, i rain the 64bit app directly and it worked.... but now i get Signal 11 when i try to play campaign/multiplayer..lol

Such a problem isn't known yet (and I can't reproduce it). To help with that, please install a program named "gdb" and try the following steps:

Code: Select all

$ ulimit -c unlimited
$ ./nexuiz-linux-x86_64-glx
... make it crash ...
$ ls
(watch out for a file named similar to core.43897)
$ gdb nexuiz-linux-x86_64-glx core.43897
(gdb) bt
// LOTS of output with numbers
(gdb) quit


and post this "output with numbers" here. The number 43897 is a placeholder and is different for every crash.

Do not delete that core file yet, depending on what we find, I'll give you some more commands to analyze it further.
