I was able to reproduce the bug on a CuBox-i4pro running Debian armhf. Without the patch, scummvm just showed a blank window and eventually crashed. With the patch applied, I was able to play beneath-a-steel-sky, though I didn't test it extensively... :) live well, vagrant -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.0 APT prefers testing-updates APT policy: (500, 'testing-updates'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: armhf (armv7l) Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-armmp (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages scummvm depends on: ii libasound21.0.28-1 ii libc6 2.19-13 ii libfaad2 2.7-8 ii libflac8 1.3.0-3 ii libfluidsynth11.1.6-2 ii libfreetype6 2.5.2-2 ii libgcc1 1:4.9.1-19 ii libgl1-mesa-glx [libgl1] 10.3.2-1 ii libjpeg62-turbo 1:1.3.1-11 ii libmad0 0.15.1b-8 ii libmpeg2-40.5.1-6 ii libogg0 1.3.2-1 ii libpng12-01.2.50-2+b2 ii libsdl1.2debian 1.2.15-10+b1 ii libstdc++64.9.1-19 ii libtheora01.1.1+dfsg.1-6 ii libvorbis0a 1.3.4-2 ii libvorbisfile31.3.4-2 ii scummvm-data 1.7.0+dfsg-1.1~20150226~1 ii zlib1g1:1.2.8.dfsg-2+b1 scummvm recommends no packages.
