Here is my output (start the game and exit from menu right away). It seems yours is failing at the audio initialisation stage.

Re: [gentoo-user] Gaming on gentoo
Hi,
I try to have a systemd and pulseaudio free setup ("religious" reasons).
When I need pulse I use apulse and otherwise everything else is compiled
with alsa flag. I wonder if the issue is related to graphics
drivers/libraries instead. D remember having segfaults with some other
linux ports whirh were caused by a missing library which did not show up (I
do not remember the name but something with ?t3c?) but I think it is now in
mesa. .If you figure out what opengl features are being used we could
compare glxinfo outputs.
So, I tested quakespasm on an ryzen 7 apu (2700u) with vega gpu (thinkpad
e485). I am using mesa drivers and a linux 6.0.8 kernel.

Re: [gentoo-user] Gaming on gentoo
Hi, I finally had the time to test quakespasm. I tried both the binary from the project as well as the version compiled by me from the project page on github. After copying the binary into quake folder (GoG version) and making symlinks to pak0.pak and pak1.pak (filesystem is case sensitive and the software cannot handle it). It worked fine.

Re: [gentoo-user] Gaming on gentoo
sourceforge tarball was a prebuilt binary (at least the one I downloaded). I saw that the source code is here: https://github.com/sezero/quakespasm/tree/master/Quake The default Makefile might need some editing for a successful compilation.

I can test out quakespasm in the evening (for me) as I need to extract the pak file to test it (as it exitied while trying to load it).

Re: [gentoo-user] Gaming on gentoo
Hi, It seems that the game is a binary blob and requires some older libraries. Have you installed some 32bit libraries. You can check what you need with 'ldd some_binary'. For 32bit libraries you might want to use 'abi_x86_32' for the needed libraries or enable it globlly in make.conf and then recompile everything.

[gentoo-user] Re: escape from i3lock
I tried to google if it is possible to change xorg serverflags in runtime, but was unable to find anything. I think that would be a cleaner solution (changing the DontVTSwitch option before locking and then restoring later).

Okay, I got it to work in a brute force way: I just added another setxkbmap command to set my normal options, the same ones as in my xorg.conf. But something weird happens when I try the fancy way: saving the options with "setxkbmap -print >FILE" and then restoring them with "xkbcomp FILE". It seems that the change I make with "setxkbmap -option FOO" is never reflected in the output of "setxkbmap -print". Looks like another place with multiple "levels" of configuration stepping over each other. -- Please don't Cc: me privately on mailing lists and Usenet, if you also post the followup to the list or newsgroup.

[gentoo-user] Re: escape from i3lock
I guess you are using xorg. man xorg says that there is an option in serverflags section which disables this functionality. Option "DontVTSwitch" "boolean" So you could add a section into xorg.conf or xorg.conf.d/ Artur Ian Zimmerman writes: On 2019-07-10 20:44, François-Xavier CARTON wrote: > On 7/10/19 7:03 PM, Ian Zimmerman wrote: > > Here is my next "low information" question, haha. > > > > I use i3lock which is like Xscreensaver but much much simpler; it plays > > no movies or games, just blanks the screen with a configured color or > > image.
