Icebreaker on Fedora 35 (and, sadly, up)

Project Discussion

Does Icebreaker work for anyone on Fedora 35? I haven’t gone back and test Fedora 34 (assuming it is available there). On Wayland and X11, icebreaker just crashes for me. I’ve tried with intel graphics and amd graphics.

Hmmm. I can recreate by deleting my ~/.cache/mesa_shader_cache/ directory. After that, it just crashes on startup. This must be something with the SDL12 compat thing. @ngompa, any idea what’s going on here?

I tried deleting my cache and rerunning Anagramarama. It still runs fine so it is not affecting all SDL12 games. (I then ported Anagramarama to SDL2. I may port Icebreaker so I can give it a try.)

I got around to trying it again on Fedora 36. It is working now.

It still crashes for me. The problem is hard to easily track down. :frowning:

It’s back to crashing for me on Fedora 38.

I could use a break… I’ll poke at it a bit and see if I can find out what’s up.

I need someone smarter than me to help figure this out. :classic_smiley:

Here’s the backtrace…

I got the same backtrace but didn’t have the time to look at it further.
