Bugs on newest Ubuntu with newest Libraries
Posted: Sun Nov 22, 2009 10:03 am
As I'm an update freak I wanted to try Orxonox with the new Ubuntu 9.10 with the newest libraries that were in its repositories.
This includes tcl-8.5 and libboost1.40-x with r6116 of the trunk.
First: I didn't hear any sound effects or music. Not sure why this is, maybe I have something misconfigured here.
Second: CEGUI was behaving strange, as my mouse pointer was actually the one from Ubuntu and not the one from CEGUI. This also lead to an offset of where the mouse pointed to and where it looked like it was pointing to. Choosing a level was difficult as it chose the level above the one I intended to click on.
Third: When I wanted to add bots to the game and have fun the font of the console seemed to be behind of the noise effect that we have on the console. That resulted in nearly unreadable console commands.
Fourth: By hitting ESC during the game the game froze instead of exiting. That is unfortunate. I had to kill the application from another screen (Alt + Tab + F1, login, killall orxonox, exit, Alt + Tab + F7).
As all those errors are not critical and maybe not even bugs, they do come when using the newest libraries, so it would be nice if we would make an effort to make it work with those.
I have by the way a freshly installed Ubuntu, so the chance that I have a fucked up system is very low. Please let me know if you need more information or if I should test something.
