PenumbraCollection - Game locks up countless times - Linux.Blue - 01-27-2010
There has been countless amount of times this game has locked up on my system. I don't know if laptops are nearly as powerful as desktops, or that my specs are not as strong. This laptop is 6 months old or so.
Some of the more common, repeated places it locked up:
Overture:
1. Right after the power room (getting power on), passing both doors to get out.
2. If that didn't lock up, turning left; walking down to turn right; that'd lock up.
Black Plague:
1. Entering the vent, at the first turn.
2. The kennel area; where you have to remain under the lights; second or so to the last turn to get in the small room, it would lock up.
There were so many places it locked up, but these were the more common places. There may have been more common places; but I may have just forgotten.
I haven't tried Requiem yet; assuming I will go through the same thing.
I found one link here for a linux patch but it just says the service or server is unavailable.

Can you provide saved game files near these lockups and directions to recreate them?
(saved game files are in the ~/.frictionalgames/Penumbra/ folders)

I am building a patch that fixes several crashes/lockups for all releases of Penumbra. I expect to have it released midweek.
