Failure to load on startup

Post by ihooten »

After compiling from source on Ubuntu 10.04 AMD 64 machine, I tried running the program with the ./src/pioneer command, a quick screen flash and I received the following:SDL_GetVideoInfo says 32 bppX Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)Major opcode of failed request: 129 (XFree86-VidModeExtension)Minor opcode of failed request: 10 (XF86VidModeSwitchToMode)Value in failed request: 0x102Serial number of failed request: 125Current serial number in output stream: 127My inclination is that it may have to do with me running this on an AMD 64 machine. That or there is a library or dependency problem that I'll need to address. I'm new to using Linux, so I'm ready to learn anything I can. Any assistance would be appreciated.

I am unfamiliar with Linux myself, but you could try this forum http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/Perhaps they could help? Dont forget to give the SSC a mention if you post a question! ;)

Do you know what your graphics card is? I've run pioneer on Linux with old nvidia cards, and with radeon 7000, x600, x1300, and it was fine, but couldn't get it to run on a computer with an S3 savage. I debugged it for a bit and concluded that the driver was just broken...

I can confirm this bug. Running an AMD X2 3800+ 64bit processor. Heres what I was greeted with ->
Code:
