They can't make up their minds whether it should be a dash or underscore. I love this: The product was installed in: /home/brebs/x2-demo Type 'x2_demo' to start the program The current version is 1.4.05, as shown in: http://updatefiles.linuxgamepublishing.com/x2-demo/ They've messed up this version by having "ReadText1266-1" visible on the "sector map". I've sent them an email, as asked for at: http://www.linuxgamepublishing.com/support.php Let's see if they release a fixed version.
Yeah, I saw that same sort of thing in a few other places too. That's not the only bug it has, I ran into this one when I tried to run it on another machine (ati-drivers-8.33.6-r1+Xgl). Sending it in right now. Nice error message, though (the one just above the stack dump): WARNING: Missing OpenGL function: glProgramLocalParameter4fvARB WARNING: Missing OpenGL function: glBindProgramARB WARNING: Missing OpenGL function: glVertexAttribPointerARB WARNING: Missing OpenGL function: glBindBufferARB WARNING: Missing OpenGL function: glGenBuffersARB WARNING: Missing OpenGL function: glBufferDataARB WARNING: Missing OpenGL function: glMapBufferARB WARNING: Missing OpenGL function: glUnmapBufferARB WARNING: Missing OpenGL function: glDeleteBuffersARB WARNING: Missing OpenGL function: glGetBufferParameterivARB WARNING: Missing OpenGL function: glGenProgramsARB WARNING: Missing OpenGL function: glProgramStringARB WARNING: Missing OpenGL function: glEnableVertexAttribArrayARB WARNING: Missing OpenGL function: glDisableVertexAttribArrayARB WARNING: Missing OpenGL function: glGetVertexAttribivARB x2-demo 1.4.05, built for i386 Segmentation Fault: What do you mean mind the asteroid?

Created attachment 124019 [details] x2-demo-1.4.05.ebuild I got an email reply from Linux Game Publishing Support - the visible "ReadText" problem in the demo cannot be fixed, because they "are unable to modify the scripts". http://mantis.linuxgamepublishing.com now has an "X2 - The Threat" section, for any other bugs.
Bumped...
