Arch Linux

Please provide logs, this isn't helpful.

Xorg.0.log have no errors on it (EE).
.xsession-errors have a lot of errors, but all related with gnome, no one is related to warzone || X crash.
The only related log i found is the one i paste, that is the output of $ warzone2100 >log 2>&1 and it's also in /var/log/errors

Please, tell me where can i find a more specific log file. Thanks

Running dmesg or in file /var/log/kernel.log

no error reported by dmesg (and also no messages after loading of gdm)

diff between files after and before crash. Files are named with incremental number, for example dmesg.log1 (before crash) and dmesg.log2 (after crash). I hope this help (i still don't see specific error in log, so i paste everything)

this problem occurr also with warzone2100-2.3.9-1 but only when running gnome. In fact, if i stop gdm and start x-base session with startx, and then run warzone, everything works well

I would like to add that I am also experiencing this on Ubuntu 11.10 with Gnome 3. I realize I am on a different system but, wanted to offer a workaround as this is the first and only thing on Google about this problem.

The logout appears to happen only in fullscreen mode (for me). If you run the game from a terminal with "warzone2100 --window" it will run in window mode. The game remembers the window mode so you don't have to run it from the terminal after you have ran it once this way.

I could not figure out how to use the debug switch (tells me the file I specify doesn't exist even if it does) but, there is one. If anyone knows how to use it, that might be more helpful.

uh yeah! This trick works well. I think this may be a problem related to the intel low power graphics card (i have this problem on a netbook) because i have another (more powerfull) archlinux pc where this problem does not exist.

Good! I'm glad it worked. However, based on what you previously stated, I believe this to be something between the game itself and Gnome. Not hardware related.

Don't know, with another pc (same configuration but more powerful hardware: GeForce 9600 GT && AMD X4) it works very well, without any problems. I already tried to reset user configuration and reinstall warzone too, but nothing change.

So this issue is resolved?

yes, still happen, these are related logs (if you think it can help)

Just tried to reproduce this but warzone2100 was killed by SIGSEGV. If it still crashes your X the logs should be in Xorg.0.log.old as X restarts instantly and moves the old log away.

as always i don't know what's going on, but this problem seems to be solved (don't know what update fixed it)
