Package: tremulous Version: 1.1.0-3 Severity: important
Tremulous starts up with a black screen (before the logo screen), and doesn't do anything. It stays at nigh 100% cpu usage (15% user, 85% system according to top) and the system doesn't react to any console input except ctrl-alt-f[1-6] virtual console changes. The system does respond to SSH, from where I diagnosed it. If you hit ctrl-alt-f1 (or any other console) the game proceeds with startup immetiatedly (can detect from sound starting to play), and when you switch back to X the game proceeds nicely and everything works as expected. The issue seems to be related to xinerama dualhead. I'm using a Nvidia EN7800GT with a xinerama two display configuration (separate displays with xinerama=1, not nvidias twinview). All other software work fine with this setup, and games run perfectly with both heads active (game fullscreen on primary display and gnome windows on second display). If I switch to Twinview, where the game sets a display mode with the other display disabled, it works perfectly as expected. and the same with single display. >From simple strace diagnosis the game seems to be stuck in some kind of busy idle loop. stracing the tremulous process just shows lots of lines like this: sched_yield() = 0 This is as much as I could dig up for now about the problem. If you need any additional info I can try to find it out, if its not too much trouble. All libraries and packages are ones from debian testing repo, with latest updates. Nvidia driver is their latest proprietary bin-ball.
