| 00:38.20 | the_map | newbie|2: how did you install bzflag? |
| 00:39.52 | the_map | sudo apt-get install bzflag, through github, synaptic or other software managers, or something else? |
| 00:53.36 | blast007 | newbie|2: run 'bzflag' from a terminal to see error output, if any |

| 01:17.33 | blast007 | what video card do you have and what driver are you using? |
| 01:18.45 | blast007 | also, when you run 'bzflag -version', does the version number have -SDL at the end? |

| 02:16.17 | blast007 | I am getting the same thing in VirtualBox, but I don't recall if that normally ever works there. |
| 02:18.10 | blast007 | in the meantime, you could play windowed (and combine it with the 'confine mouse' set to 'window'), so 'bzflag -window 800x600' (replacing the dimensions with whatever you'd want it to be, keeping in mind there's some extra for the border) |
| 02:20.38 | blast007 | and are you registered on our forum? if so, what name? I could message you if I come up with a fix/workaround. |

| 18:31.47 | blast007 | I added a destructor to the SDL2 SDLWindow class, but it's not being called when the window gets deleted. What am I doing wrong? http://static.bzexcess.com/destructor.diff |
| 18:34.24 | *** join/#bzflag zuii (~cauchy@BC06BF93.catv.pool.telekom.hu) |
| 19:28.36 | alezakos | that destructor gets called when the game exits for me on linux |
| 19:29.04 | alezakos | it also segfaults when it starts in most cases :P |
| 19:34.26 | the_map | "in most cases"...that sounds like fun to debug |
| 19:43.48 | blast007 | arg, it's calling it on *this* system |
| 19:44.28 | blast007 | though I did have an issue here that I didn't there. threw up a memory access violation because I was calling getGamma before a window was created. |
| 19:45.22 | alezakos | yeah, that's the issue that's causing the segfaults for me |
| 19:50.37 | blast007 | in the constructor, I changed it to use a value of -1.0f instead of getGamma(), and then had a 'if (origGamma < 0) origGamma = getGamma()' after the call to SDL_CreateWindow |
| 20:04.57 | blast007 | k, applied that and did a full rebuild, and now that works on my other system :P |
| 20:09.35 | blast007 | gamma controls don't even seem to work right on nVidia. It changes for a moment, but then goes back. (and does so in both the 2.4.4 build and the build using SDL2) |
| 20:40.29 | blast007 | okay, here's an example of why we need to redo our platform code: when I start the game, SDLWindow::create gets called *eight* times. Changing from window to full or full to window calls SDLWindow::create twice. |
| 21:04.34 | the_map | when you register to the bzflag forums, there's an option for what language you want |
| 21:04.44 | the_map | there's only one option though... |
| 21:17.22 | blast007 | that's because it's hosted in the USA |

| 21:34.47 | the_map | the option is "British English" |
| 21:39.05 | blast007 | right, USA |
| 21:39.10 | blast007 | where we don't know any better |
| 21:59.49 | blast007 | I'd be curious if that breaks/improves brightness control on Linux w/ SDL2 or Mac |
