Description:

prboom doesn't launch and displays "Exiting on signal: signal 4" before crashing.
Yet my SDL_mixer seems to work well with ioquake3 and Gens/GS.

I've reported the bug upstream : http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=3174539&group_id=3396&atid=103396

Additional info:
* prboom v2.5.0

Steps to reproduce:
* Type prboom into a terminal

Try to rebuild SDL with OSS support ("--enable-oss").

Did you have any chance to test with OSS-enabled SDL yet?
Comment by Laurent Pointecouteau (hellpe) - Tuesday, 12 April 2011, 10:32 GMT
I''ve tried to do so, with sdl-hg from AUR and yaourt, but it fails at installing it, because I have other packages depending on sdl (I'm not very skilled at package management). Those have sound working, though - like Mednafen or Openshot.

hellpe: The easiest thing to do is to use the official sdl PKGBUILD (just get it via ABS), add "--enable-oss" to the "./configure" line, rebuild it and install via `pacman -U`. You shouldn't have dependency resolution issues then.

I've followed your instructions (here's my PKGBUILD : http://pastebin.archlinux.fr/432003) but I'm still encountering the very same errors.

What's the output of `pacman -Qi sdl`?

Here's my `pacman -Qi sdl` output : http://pastebin.archlinux.fr/432125

Well, I assume it's an upstream bug then. Unfortunately, I don't use OSS on any of my machines so I cannot do any debugging. Let me know if there's any news...

Oh, and maybe you could try ALSA emulation as well.
