I downloaded the statically linked version of 3.14.1, ran the installer as root with no errors, but receive the following error when I attempt to start the game as any user:
Code: Select all
$ freeorion-start
I am Symlink. Following into my targets basedir
CWD: /usr/local/games/freeorion/application
python2.5 found. Using it.

/usr/local/bin/freeorion-start: line 143: 3167 Aborted ${FO_TRACE} ${FO_GDB_ARGS} ./freeorion --resource-dir ./default $@
I looked for a switch allowing me to start the game without sound, hoping to still get to test the game out a bit, but all I found was the -m switch (no music) and that does not help. Is there a hidden switch to start the game without sound for some quick testing before committing to getting the sound working properly?
