Dead -> Loading -> Hang

[PRAEst76]

Anyone else having problems with the game hanging when after dying?
When I first start the game, loading has no problems. If I die, then it just hangs forever.
I have to restart X. Any ideas???

It's done this on me a few times. Sometimes it reloads fine, other times it sits on Loading... until I kill the game. Never had to restart X. I just Ctrl+Alt and F1 to a tty session and

Code: (Select All)

killall -9 penumbra.bin

. It usually locks my mouse but if i reload penumbra and quit it normally it gives me the mouse back. Possibly you can retrieve the mouse in some other fashion, but i haven't done any digging through the system to find out what causes that.
