America's Army Crashes for No Reason....

[TristanMike]

Well, I suppose not "no reason" because there is always a reason, but more like very unexpectedly. Anyway here's the error from the terminaltristan@ubuntu:~$ armyops
Xlib: extension "XiG-SUNDRY-NONSTANDARD" missing on display ":0.0".
Signal: SIGSEGV [segmentation fault]
Aborting.


Crash information will be saved to your logfile.
tristan@ubuntu:~$Can anyone explain what this may mean? I don't know where to look for the "logfile". I've done some reading through google, but I don't really understand it. Can anyone help me please? And what does this code doxinit /$usr/local/games/armyops -- :1Well, I went ahead and typed it in, and my desktop appeared to reboot as I got the nVidia splash, but my screen went grey with an "X" for a cursor, and nothing else. I thought I lost my system but a quick "ctrl+alt+backspace" brought me out, back to the terminal, whew!

was in the terminal. So what does this mean? Any help is greatly appreciated.

try running 'killall esd' and then run the game.

[TristanMike]

Thanks for the reply sir. :)

Ummm, ok, if you don't mind though, before I go and type in arbitary code in the terminal, why do you think the sound is causing the issue? I've never had a problem with sound so what leads you to believe this is the solution? The crashing is pretty random, sometimes it doesn't happen at all during a session, but yesterday for instance, it happened twice. Please elaborate. :)

EDIT: Oh, and what does the "xinit...." line of code do?

[TristanMike]

Can anyone help? It is happening more frequently now.
