--- Begin Message ---Package: torcs Version: 1.3.0-1 Tags: patch Severity: wishlist If torcs attempts to start a race with the OpenAL audio backend enabled, and OpenAL is unable to open an audio device, torcs segfaults. The Plib audio backend just prints an error message when it cannot open a device, and allows play to continue. When sound is disabled, torcs doesn't even try to open a device. This is admittedly a bug in OpenAL, but the attached patch to torcs provides a workaround to allow torcs to work smoothly until the OpenAL issue is addressed. Please consider this for application. To verify the issue and solution, temporarily remove or displace /etc/openalrc and (if it exists) $HOME/.openalrc; disable OSS (rmmod), and start torcs. -- Emmet HIKORYdiff -urN torcs-1.3.0/src/modules/graphic/ssggraph/grsound.cpp torcs-1.3.0.new/src/modules/graphic/ssggraph/grsound.cpp --- src/modules/graphic/ssggraph/grsound.cpp 2006-11-05 10:42:26.000000000 +0900 +++ src/modules/graphic/ssggraph/grsound.cpp 2007-10-08 18:15:29.000000000 +0900 @@ -72,7 +72,14 @@ switch (sound_mode) { case OPENAL_MODE: - sound_interface = new OpenalSoundInterface (44100, 32); + try { + sound_interface = new OpenalSoundInterface (44100, 32); + } + catch (const char *err) { + fprintf (stderr, "Disabling Sound: OpenAL initialisation failed: %s\n", err ? err : ""); + sound_mode = DISABLED; + return; + } break; case PLIB_MODE: sound_interface = new PlibSoundInterface(44100, 32);
