just for completeness (answered your pm allready):
test1: does not crash, but cannot complete through exit script failure
test2: runs fine

looks exactly the same when using gcc 4.1.
glibc invalid pointer, and when disabling the MALLOC-Check it simply segfaults.

I was using gcc 3.4 during my "trials".
So you think using gcc 4.0 could help?

Thread-Modell: posix
gcc-Version 3.4.6 (Gentoo 3.4.6-r1, ssp-3.4.5-1.0, pie-8.7.9)
{/code]



i allready did that, becouse i read about it in another thread.
the invalid pointer error then becomes an segfault, and the game dies at exactly the same point.


I tried to build PS from the newest cvs sources too, and the game crashes at eactly this spot.
Here the output i get from my current install (current cvs buils, not the revision from the howto):

I have the same error after building from cvs/svn.
I exported the enviroment vars as written in that howto: http://planeshift.cvs.sourceforge.net/*checkout*/planeshift/planeshift/docs/compiling.html
The first time i tired to connect to a server I saw the "Create New Caracter" screen. But now it crashes

I repeated the configure parts of that howto, and rebuildet everything again, seems if i wrecked up the LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
But now the game doesn't even crash earlier when it tries to load during the slash screen.

Hi,

Im running Gentoo Linux with an 2.6.16 suspend2 Kernel, using Gnome 2.14 as window manager.
After configuration the Installer trys "Preparing to Install" and stops with an error at 0%.

I  can't get my hands on anything that would be usful for solving that problem, so I hope someone can help me out.

When there is no help on this problem is availaible:
Is there a way to install without the binaries?
Sources, e.g. from cvs? A good HowTo at hand?


Thanks so far,
Stevit
