Hello,
I am having essentially the same problem as what is in this thread:
http://www.frictionalgames.com/forum/thread-3294.html
I am running Fedora 12 x64 bit. I have both openal-soft.i686 and x86_64 packages installed:
# yum list openal*
Loaded plugins: presto, refresh-packagekit
Installed Packages
openal-soft.i686 1.11.753-3.20100225git.fc12 @updates
openal-soft.x86_64 1.11.753-3.20100225git.fc12 @updates
I have also removed libopenal.so.1.3.253 and libopenal.so.1 from my PenumbraOverture/lib folder.
This is the last line of my hlp.log file:
--------------------------------------------------------
Initializing Sound Module
--------------------------------------------------------
Initializing OpenAL.
Trying to open audio device...
When I run the game from the command line, this is what I get:
./penumbra
(0) : fatal error C9999: *** exception during compilation ***
Cg compiler terminated due to fatal error./penumbra: line 9: 8639 Segmentation fault (core dumped) ./penumbra.bin "$@"
Penumbra: Overture exited unexpectedly, please check
/home/me/.frictionalgames/Penumbra/Overture/hpl.log
for any error messages
Also try running
ulimit -c unlimited
And re-running Penumbra and try and recreate the error
then submit the generated core file or stack trace
And these are the perms on the lib in question:
[me@computer ~]$ ls -l /usr/lib/alsa-lib/
total 52
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 4020 2010-01-14 11:30 libasound_module_conf_pulse.so
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 18328 2010-01-14 11:30 libasound_module_ctl_pulse.so
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 20500 2010-01-14 11:30 libasound_module_pcm_pulse.so
drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 4096 2010-03-20 15:56 smixer
Any thoughts?
