I've been using version 0.21 for a while now, and I thought it was about time to upgrade. I've successfully compiled it, but all I get when I run it is 'Segmentation fault'. It's initialised the SDL audio & joysticks successfully, but it just won't run. Anyone else had any luck with this?

Thanks in advance

Can you say where it crashes? What's been printed to the console before it segfaults?

Also, does this pre-release version fix it?

The prerelease fails in the same way. I get this in the console:

GTK+-2 file requester selected.

Thanks

Cheers for that, I've found the problem: my code for assigning and reading joystick mappings was somewhat sucky. Fixed in the darcs repository and here:

Now I look at it with fresh eyes, that code is really quite ugly, so I'll probably fix it further. I'll test it this time though!

I must not have plugged my joystick in (actually also a playstation-USB adaptor) for a long time!

Thanks very much, the latest pre-release fixed the issue I was having.
