Could not init gl function pointers

[princec]

That log isn't it crashing unfortunately. I have a feeling you're falling foul of a driver cock-up.

Cas

[karlb]

Strange. All other OpenGL apps work fine (Blender, Quake3, Tuxracer etc.). Is there anything I can do except waiting for a new driver?

-- Karl

[princec]

I have a funny feeling that it's actually getting the wrong driver somehow, or the other apps would likely experience some trouble.

What you can do is badger Elias a lot about it because he's Mr Linux

Cas

[elias]

Thanx alot!

Now, I can't do much more without a real exception. The fact that you can reach the menu suggests that there's a driver issue in play, but anymore than that is guesswork.

Cas, don't you have a straight up jar file for him to try from the command line?

- elias

[princec]

Yep; just download this zip file which contains only the jars. Unzip somewhere nice where the liblwjgl_d.so is and run from the cmd line with:

java -ea -cp alienflux-full-code.jar:alienflux-full-game.jar:alienflux-full-resources.jar:spgl.jar:lwjgl.jar -Djava.library.path=. xap.Game

Isn't a java.lang.NumberFormatException a real exception? (see post at the end of page one)

Starting download now...

[karlb]

I'm getting an error page when trying to download:

[princec]

Bloody hell, Win2k security actually works... forgot to check the permissions on the file Everyone can read it now.

Isn't a java.lang.NumberFormatException a real exception? (see post at the end of page one)

Naa, that's just AF failing to read in some properties or a licence key or some such.  It's a non-fatal error and occurs all the time.  Probably shouldn't even make it into the log, hey? :wink:

Here's the Alien Flux_err.log:

It seems it cannot find the OpenAL library. Do you have libopenal.so in your AF directory?

- elias

[princec]

That's not actually what's causing the problem though - it's barfing in glActiveTexture, which means there's a bug in the driver.

(AF runs without openAL being present - it just tells you there won't be any sound)

Cas

[elias]

Hm, LWJGL should have disabled OpenGL1.3 because of missing symbols already. Can you try with the liblwjgl_d.so I gave you and give the list of extensions it disables? The lines look like:

NOTICE: %s disabled because of missing driver symbols

Never mind that - I've found the reason it's not disabled. We do our own checking from java, independent from the native core. It will require some more careful thinking to fix.
