hello,

my OS is ubuntu 9.10 and I have installed openarena via apt.
At first it worked perfect I already had a lot of fun with the game it's my favourite.
But a few days earlier I wanted to start the game and when i click the icon,
my screen goes black for a moment (always being this way)
and then (when the game normally started) I get a darkgrey (black) screen
and that's it, afterwards I can't do a thing I have to shut down the computer by holding start button
and I have to do a complete restart.

Anyone an idea what can be wrong, I really hope to fix this I already miss the game Smiley

Hi and welcome,

What is your videocard ?

What does this command produce ? (Can you run other 3D apps ? glxgears ?)
Code:
glxinfo | grep direct

When you start OA from a terminal, what is the output ? You can get the log by a command similar to this one:
Code:
openarena.i386 > ~/oa_log.txt

My video card is an geforce I think 6000 series
with the recommended nvidia driver.
My other 3D applications work perfect (example cairo-dock with open gl)

snake@snake-desktop:~$ glxinfo | grep direct
direct rendering: Yes
    GL_EXT_direct_state_access, GL_EXT_draw_range_elements, GL_EXT_fog_coord,

How exactly can i get the log of openarena?
Running linux for a while now but I'm still a bit of a terminal noob Smiley

You start the terminal, from your graphical environment.
Then you usually have to type the complete path to the binary used to start the game, or you may try to type openar[TAB][TAB] to check if it can auto-complete the command (that would mean he finds the binary, and you don't need to type the complete path).
To this point this will only start the game, and crash, so that's no good ...
Instead, you're going to do a kamikaze but useful mission.
When you start a command from a terminal, it usually produces text (some log), because most Linux commands are verbose.
Your terminal works with 3 different streams, a standard one for output, one which is used to output errors, and one which is used to get inputs.
Normal behaviour is to say "the output stream is the terminal", so it displays text within the terminal.
Instead, you will tell your shell (usually bash, the terminal interpreter), to redirect the output into a file, this is what the ">" character is for.
So your command will be:
Code:
/path/to/openarena/binary > /home/$USER/OAlog.txt
Now you can open your OAlog.txt file from any editor, and paste its content here Wink
It will start the game, and so it will crash your computer, which is fine.
Note: I know no good way to prevent the crash or to shutdown your computer properly ...

"openarena > ~/OAlog.txt" should do (paths are correct by default in Ubuntu if installed with apt). This should create OAlog.txt in your home folder.

You might try a "reinstall" by typing "mv ~/.openarena ~/.openarena.bak" in case there is something in here that breaks things.

Can you use "AltGr+SysRq+K" or "Ctrl+Alt+F2"? If they do not work it is likely a card, compiz or driver issue.

I was able to build a log file, but this file is empty.
I think he crashes before doing anything.
When I pushed Ctrl+Alt+F2 I came back in a terminal (without gnome)
I also already reinstalled the package from apt and also installed on my linux mint OS
and there it's the same problem.

Got an idea but like to have your opinion,
would it be useful to remove my openarena installation,
download the package from the website and install this way instead of apt.

Do other 3d games crash? Did you update something (drivers, X, important packages...) before it stopped working?

If you can get to the console by pressing Ctrl+Alt+F2, you can also log on as root and kill openarena: "killall openarena". If that doesn't work, kill X: "killall X". That should let you log on again without rebooting the computer.

Rather than killing X, you might restart GDM.
Code:
/etc/init.d/gdm restart

This is weird it leaves an empty file, I would have thought it would produce a few lines before trying to get the 3D working and crash.

I was going to suggest you that, though normally the ubuntu package shouldn't have any problem ...

Finally, If you run compiz, disable it before starting OA.

I thought there was a possibility I had some compiz settings changed just before the problem began,
so I removed my complete compiz, rebooted and still the same problem.
I tried sauerbraten and warzone to and these work without a problem.
Now I'm still waiting for the package off the original openarena site,
but since I'm on small-band it goes enormous slow(3-4kb/s).

There is also another thing, when I use Ctrl+Alt+F2 and i come in the terminal
he asks for my login name and password but everytime I type it in he says it's wrong and I still need to reboot.

It should work but be aware that the light of Num Lock does not act as expected. Login name is the username, the one you get with the "whoami"-command.

The main reason I asked you to press Ctrl+Alt+F2 was to test if the whole system was frozen or just OpenArena. Because the system reacted I know it was just OpenArena. That I currently do now know what to do with this information it is an important start.

This is weird you can't login when using CTRL+ALT+F2. (or F3, or F4...)
You can usually get back to X with CTRL ALT F7 or F8.

Your login and passwords are case-sensitive, so be careful with that.
Also, your normal username and password aren't things you type often, because most distros are set-up so that you're automatically logged on. Do not confuse your root password (sudo one) with your normal user password. Oh, maybe I'm saying something stupid, because Ubuntu is particular on that matter (it uses normal user password to gain root priviledges).
Try to get back some console and login access, eventually reset your password to fix that (google or Ubuntu's Wiki will tell you how).

If your X server freezes again, you might also try "CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE", it should restart X.

Once you gain console access, you'll be able to type in a few commands, like:
- killall openarena (and so you'll be able to gain back access to your X server, and read the log if you started OA from a terminal)
- checking a few system logs, like dmesg, its end might contain valuable infos.

This has been disabled for a while now. You have to enable it at compile time when building X.

So it might not work for the OP.

But failing to log in at the prompt is very odd indeed.

The login problem is fixed, it was the num lock problem, have to put out and back on.
Still downloading original package, but I build a system log with dmesg

Uhm ..... maybe the problem is that openarena coming via apt is linked to an old MESA OpenGL lib : the NVIDIA driver OpenGL specs are quite always higher...

Oh man, use the <code> tag, with [] instead of <>.
Then you'd be able to paste the file as a whole in a single post.

The dmesg is mainly useful if you experience some serious crash, then you read the last line of it, it might contain useful infos.

Now, you can:
1) start OA from a terminal (just type openarena in it) within X, let it crash
2) switch to some console with CTRL ALT F2, and log in.
3) killall openarena should kill the process, if it doesn't:
Code:
ps aux
(note the PID column of the openarena process)
Code:
kill -9 the_pid_you_noted
4) Then switch back to your X environement, it should work ... and check what is the output of the terminal, and paste it here.

Good luck Wink

A lot has happened of late,
first I wanted to try ubuntu 10
and with some luck maybe openarena worked perfectly to.
But I made a mistake somewhere, after reboot he blocked ad grub.
But he no panicking formatted HD and installed back ubuntu 9.

Then since this morning I'm back on broadband,
so downloaded original package and patch from site.
Copied patch in game map and by clicking "openarena.i386"
game starts and runs without any problem.

I only still have one question and after that i gonna mark post solved,
Where have I to put the game map, or what do I have to do
to have an icon in my menu like other games ( and openarena
when installed with apt)

From: http://openarena.tuxfamily.org/wiki/installersouslinux#installation_manuelle_toutes_distributions

Create with your editor the file:

/usr/local/share/applications/openarena.desktop

Code:
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=OpenArena
Comment=A fast-paced 3D first-person shooter, similar to id Software Inc.'s Quake III Arena
Comment[fr]=Un jeu de tir subjectif rapide, similaire à Quake III Arena de Id Software
Comment[de]=Ein hektischer und netzwerkfähiger 3D Ego-Shooter, ähnlich zu Quake III Arena von id Software Inc.
Exec=openarena
Terminal=false
Icon=openarena.ico
Type=Application
Categories=Game;ArcadeGame;

Get some icon for the game:
- This one is the old one: http://download.tuxfamily.org/openarena/files/images/icons/openarena.ico
- You may create one from this SVG: http://download.tuxfamily.org/openarena/files/images/logo/OALogo.svg

Copy this icon in your /usr/local/share/icons directory (you have to be root to do that).

Should work if your environment respects Freedesktop guidelines (Gnome, KDE, Xfce ...).

Edit: I forgot, you may have to edit the "exec" line of that menu entry, or you can rather do this:
Create a symbolic link in order to start OA by simply typing "openarena":
Code:
cd /usr/local/bin
#replace yyy with your CPU architecture, i386 (32 bits) or x86_64 (64 bits).
ln -s ../games/openarena-x.x.x/openarena.yyy openarena

Can't get icons fixed yet,
Tried again to install with apt and game runs fine now,
only I can't get the patch working then.
Tried some suggestions from the forum
but couldn't get it done Is there an easy way for a noob like me
to get a icon in my games list from the pack downloaded from site or
to get the patch working on the original ubuntu package?

To get the patch working for your normal ubuntu repo,
All you have to do is to copy the patch.pk3 file into the directory where other pk3s are, probably some subdirectory in /usr/games.
Other files from the patch (binaries) can be deleted, you shouldn't replace Ubuntu ones by them.

If you use Gnome, you may use the "alacarte" program to edit your menu and make an entry for OA.

And now everything works perfect with
patch on my original ubuntu package

Thx to y'all now I'm back gameready Smiley
