Author Topic: linux - 64 bit - 0.19 - failed hardware check (Solved) (Read 5038 times)

Hi.

There seems to be an issue running the latest build (0.19) in 64bit distros. I have all 32bit compatibility libraries and can run just about anything else - i.e doom3, quake4, et, etc.

The game loads and runs fine but randomly I get throw out with the message

Yossarianuk failed hardware check.

I have the exact same issue in both 64 bit distros i run
- gentoo and kubuntu 64

I have tried running with the linux32 command but get the same result.

It seems fine running on pclinuxos 32bit so I assue its a 64 bit issue ?

The game looks and plays (in 32bit) really well - great fun btw

I remember seeing something about that. Wait til Jitspoe sees this post and he should be able to tell you what's up.

Off topic, but works the game with Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit ?

I can't say whether or not the games runs on vista 64, but 32 I can vouch for.

Just out of curiosity, do you have the 32bit compatible libraries for gcrypt?

yossarianuk · « **Reply #5 on:** August 01, 2007, 07:31:26 AM »

Hi.

I didn't have but I have now, I still get the same result..

Btw there isn't a 32 bit package for kubuntu or gentoo but I have installed the 32b bit libs in /usr/lib32/ using the getlib tool for kubuntu.

Are there any more libs I need ?

Has anyone else managed to run this build in a 64 bit distro ?

I know other people have had problems running it on 64bit linux, but I'm not sure if anybody has gotten it to successfully work. I don't have a 64bit distro installed, so I can't debug it right now. You might consider using wine and running the windows version. The win32 build is a lot more stable.

Hi.

It works 100% o.k except for being randomly thrown out with that message.

I'll just use my 32 bit distro (rather than wine...) to play - I have kept 1 32bit distro in case I had any issues.

So far I have worked out how run everything else in 64bit - including flash, java, games, etc.

I'm sure there will be a solution.

Should I file a bug report?

jitspoe · « **Reply #8 on:** August 02, 2007, 03:48:23 PM »

On sourceforge? You can if you want to. I downloaded the 64bit kubuntu last night, so I'll tinker with it as soon as I have time.

Cool - Let me know if you have any other 64 bit issues and I may be able to help you

Have to say Gentoo 64 handles 32bit apps even easier..

Nexuiz 64 bit is quite a bit faster it seems..

Well, I just tried the Kubuntu boot DVD and I couldn't get it to work. It booted up to xwindows, then sat there with a cursor and a blue background. The background looked corrupted, too -- funky black spots and lines in it. I could move the mouse cursor around, but that was it. Couldn't even ctrl-alt-f1 to get to a console. I'm downloading regular 64bit ubuntu now.

Had something to do with the video drivers. I finally got a 64 bit version of Ubuntu up and a 64bit version of paintball2 compiled, but something about the checksum algorithm depends on it being 32bit, I guess. Every time I try to connect to a server, it says I have different map version. Also, when I try to play locally, the game shuts down with "Error: Hunk_End: Could not remap virtual block (2)". Probably has something to do with 32bit memory allocation. I really need to get an actual install of linux on this machine. It took quite a while just to get a live cd up and running with all the necessary drivers and libraries. This is a little more work than I anticipated.

Well, I guess not really, but I was hoping I'd get lucky and pop a cd in, copy the files over, compile it and be done.

http://dplogin.com/forums/index.php?topic=2957.msg87719#msg87719 -- posted my response in the wrong thread, but info on the 64bit version is there if you want to try it out.

Works with the patch in the above link

Hey jitspoe.

Shouldn't this patch - http://dplogin.com/files/clients/linux/paintball2_build019_linux_64bit_patch.tar.gz

Be more prominent on the download page ?

I just downloaded a fresh coy of the linux 0.19 build and needed to reload the patch

Me, you and the other 8 linux players are just lucky that he's even compiling the linux client for each release.

Almost nine!

Oh, yeah, I've been meaning to put that up on the files page. Just haven't gotten around to it.

Edit: Added.
