Signal 11, "--nosound" fix not working (Linux Mint)

#1

Post by anorman728 » Fri Feb 14, 2025 4:36 am

Hi. I'm trying to run Zandronum on Linux Mint 21 (MATE, if that means anything). I've installed it using the drdteam repo.

Whenever I try to launch it with whatever method, like `zandronum -iwad DOOM.WAD`, I get this error:
The program 'zandronum' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)'.
(Details: serial 141 error_code 2 request_code 153 minor_code 10)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)


*** Fatal Error ***
Address not mapped to object (signal 11)
Address: (nil)

Generating zandronum-crash-02_13_2025-22_03_06.29498.log and killing process 29498, please wait... 30 ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/wait4.c: No such file or directory.

I'm kind of at a loss because about the only solution that I've seen online is to start with the `-nosound` option, but that doesn't do anything for me. I've also not seen anyone with the "Address: (nil)" message.

I've also tried the flatpak package and the archive, neither of which got even far enough to display that error.

Also if it's relevant, GZDoom works.
