May I introduce myself? - SomeName - 2012-04-14
Hi to all AC-R players/developers/fans!
I'm a C/C++ hobby programmer from Germany who is sad about the lack of good open source games. AC-R is already one of the best open source games in the net.
I found one bug while playing in Linux: Everytime I play AC-R on Linux it crashes X11 after playing a while.
It is all in all a nice game.

Yeah, I sometimes get this bug too; nothing responds, not even crtl-alt-backspace... critical bug

If it crashes, at least take a screenshot and post it.

How to take a screenshot if the whole system freezes? there is also nothing interesting to see, just the game itself that froze at one frame.
I don't know if I can still get to tty1(Crtl-alt-F1), but I doubt this would be useful.
Does the game write chrash logs? Or, does my system write logs that might be useful for this problem? I know system log tools exist, but I've not looked much into it yet.

There's this key called "Print Screen". For me, it's beside the scroll lock.
If that fails because the computer is actually frozen, there's this thing called a camera.
On Windows, it displays debug information telling which line of code triggers it.

Well, just take a random screenshot in ACR, and there is your debug-screenshot. Really nothing happens that could trigger this rather than time. Next time I play ACR, I'll check after what time it when freezes.
And what displays Debug information? The BSOD? Or any useful log?

I tried to reproduce this error and dmesg says:
Assertion failed in ../../../../../../../../drivers/2d/lnx/fgl/drm/kernel/hal_evergreen.c at line: 64
