bin/setup bug on Linux

Hi.

I had some trouble getting bin/setup to run.
I installed to a directory in my $HOME ($HOME/privater) and wanted to start the setup program from that directory, which promptly informed me that it couldn't find the setup.config file. After using strace I found that the program first does a chdir to ~/.privater100 and only _then_ tries to open "setup.config". If it can't find it there, it statically searches a path in /usr/local/somewhere. If it can't find it there, it simply fails.
Same goes for vegastrike.config.
Only after a little symlink magic was I able to use the setup tool.

What about simply creating a new file with default values?
 
I had no luck in running the setup tool al all (it did in 0,9 though)... It just segfaults every time with fresh install... heres the output if you will (shortened);

I might add to that, that I REALLY enjoyed the 0.9 version and that I'd just like to edit prefs so that bases would look full screen, music would be off and my gamepad would accept a few keycommands, thats all. But editing vegastrike.conf seems to make no difference, hows that???

Am i just plain stupid with 4 years of CS-college and linux?
 
looks like you're running X.org
I had major trouble with X.org in my livesystem, applications would crash with similiar errors. I suspect a bug in X.org since everything runs fine in XFree86. Btw, the latest release .2 of X.org _is_ buggy wrt. at least the interface to the nvidia driver. I recommend sticking to .1 or XFree86.

Thanks for the quick reply... Nevertheless, I'm using the plain old Xfree4 that came with the mandrake 10 :>

Could this bug relate to Nvidia drivers? Never thought of that....
 
sure, nvidia is always at fault :) *just kidding*

what's strange is that it segfaults at an munmap call. This suggest a buffer overflow and/or unchecked error. Honestly, judging from the rest of setups behaviour, that wouldn't surprise me :/

Let's start at the beginning. is $DISPLAY set correctly? Do you have permission to access the X-Server? Could you paste an ltrace output?

Seems the beginnings is the right place for me ehe :>

echo $DISPLAY
:0

Thats it, and I have no clue as what it means. I do have the rights to Xserver and all the other (SDL etc) games work fawlesly.
 
:0 means to use the UNIX Sockets to connect to the first X Server running on the machine you're currently on. So far that's correct.
Can you place the ltrace output here?

I have the same problem as samppa72.
here's my ltrace output (the last view lines before the SEGFAULT.):
