Linspire 5.0 - Black Screen

by Steve McAtee · in ThinkTanks · 03/25/2005 (2:51 pm) · 2 replies

When I start Thinktanks on my Linux/Linspire box the screen goes black for a moment, then returns to my desktop without starting the game. No error screen.

Does Thinktank produce a log file anywhere that I could examine to determine the problem?

I've experimented a little more. When I go to the directory ThinkTanks is installed and launch the game via: ./ThinkTanks.bin it launches. But I have no sound.

How do I get the sound working? Once again, does thinktanks log errors anywhere?

One more thing,

From the install directory if I run: ./thinktanks from the console the screen goes blank, then returns with this error:

The screen goes mcop warning: user defined signal handler found for SIG_PIPE, overriding
