Public bug reported:
I can launch the game, pass the intro but then everything freezes at the
"Loading" screen. I have to kill the process from a console to take back
control of the computer. (The descent.hog file was extracted from
descent-pc-shareware.zip, so this shouldn't be the issue. Besides, the
game works fine with the same files extracted from that archive on
another Ubuntu 18.04 amd64 Bionic laptop, so this seems specific to
Focal.)
When launched from the terminal, the output is as follows:
$ d1x-rebirth
Type d1x-rebirth -help' for a list of command-line options.
D1X-Rebirth v0.58.1 Feb 1 2020 15:24:25
This is a MODIFIED version of Descent, based on Registered v1.5 Jan 5, 1996.
