Recent Update: DayofDefeat crashes after some time with SegmentationFault

[haube]

Some recent update broke DoD for me it seems. I am able to play several minutes, or even whole rounds until a crash to desktop happens. I checked the gamefiles integrity, Tried both Game and Steam Client Beta with no success. I already deactivated the gameoverlay, with no help. I do not know what triggers the crash, it happens in every possible circumstance on every map so far. The game worked well a week ago or so don't nail me on that, you always remember the bad things not when everything is fine ;)

My Journal log shows the following:

[Tele42]

There are several reports of stability issues with nvidia 358 but not 355, might be worthwhile to test and see if this true here as well.

[haube]

worth a try.

i downgraded the following packages.

sudo pacman -U lib32-nvidia-libgl-355.11-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz lib32-nvidia-utils-355.11-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz nvidia-355.11-4-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
nvidia-libgl-355.11-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz nvidia-utils-355.11-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz opencl-nvidia-355.11-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

in addition had to update my xorg.conf to make the Xserver running again because i got the following error after downgrading:

518.578] (II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/nvidia_drv.so 518.578 Module nvidia: vendor="NVIDIA Corporation" [ 518.578] compiled for 4.0.2, module version = 1.0.0 [ 518.578] Module class: X.Org Video Driver [ 518.578] ================ WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING ================ [ 518.578] This server has a video driver ABI version of 20.0 that this driver does not officially support.

So i added the following to the xorg.conf

Section "ServerFlags" Option "IgnoreABI" "True" EndSection

X starts now with the following, if it is sti

Ok, while writing this the game crashed again with the same error :

Maybe i am willing to downgrade my Xserver too, but i am not sure if it is worth the pain, there are some dependency issues...

Current Xserver : $pacman -Q xorg-server xorg-server 1.18.0-3
