In the most recent version, I fixed the problem that the client just exits 
without writing any error message to the log. 

However, the base problem that the shader does not work for you still exists, 
you just can see the error message more easily :/ 

What graphics card are you using? And which driver version? Did you try 
installing the most recent one?
Did you change anything since the last successful run? Because the shader has 
not changed recently...

My graphic card is a GeForce Go 7400. I changed from NVIDIA proprietary driver 
to nouveau opensource driver.

I added try/catch blocks to write an error message to the log if the shader 
compilation fails and a check for GL_EXT_gpu_shader4 with graceful exit. I'll 
check if this works fine on Windows in the next few days.

When using the nouveau drivers, this will terminate the client with a message 
to use the official driver. If you want to add support for nouveau I'm happy to 
include a patch. I personally think it does not have such high priority for 
now, as the proprietary drivers are working fine.
