[0.9.9.7|console|Linux] Game won't start: Ubuntu 13.04

(1/2) > >>

Hircon:
Whenever I try to start the game from the terminal it launches a window as if the game is going to start, but then it gives me this error message:


--- Quote ---Abnormal program termination!

Reason : Access violation

If this reason doesn't seem your fault, please submit a bug report at

Does anyone know how to resolve this?  I would really like to be able to play this without resorting to wine.

Kornel Kisielewicz:
Try opening a terminal yourself, and ensure it's at least 80x25, and see if it helps? Also, error.log?

Hircon:
I get 80x24 when I open a terminal, would that be a problem?

error.log just gives the same information:

Just found out I can start the game up using xterm, which I couldn't do yesterday. Not sure what exactly changed.

Kornel Kisielewicz:
You need to manually resize the terminal to at least 80x25, because DoomRL can't do that and crashes :<
