Neverwinter Nights (nwn-gog) sticks on SDL_WM_GrabInput [SOLVED]

YAOMTC · 2015-02-05 21:46:31

I've run nwn 2 or 3 times now, as needed to get things set up. But now I'm stuck. Whenever I try to run it now, it gets stuck at "NOTICE: SDL_WM_GrabInput(QUERY) called.." and nothing happens.

Any ideas? I'm using this package with the latest version of Neverwinter Nights (Diamond Edition) downloaded from GOG. I'm using an AMD graphics card with the lastest Catalyst installed. I've checked ~/.nwn but I don't see anything useful in there, it's fairly empty (two empty files in the logs folder for example)

EDIT: It's a Catalyst related issue. xf86-video-ati doesn't have this problem.

I don't own this game but that might change today! Have you tried a different method to install/launch the game such as playonlinux? I noticed there is a specific install script for it http://www.playonlinux.com/en/source-10 … ition.html

YAOMTC · 2015-02-05 22:07:35

I actually can play the game just fine via Wine (I've only noticed one minor bug so far), I just wanted to see if I could get the native Linux client working.

frank604 · 2015-02-05 22:30:21

Does this help? https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=155009
It seems the link is dead though. But gives a good idea on the debug process he went through.

Edit: But a quick search in aur shows https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/?O=0&K=libtxc_dxtn
For the outdated one, it seems you just need to update the md5sum in pkgbuild

Update it with what value? The one posted in the comments doesn't seem to work.

Also, my backtrace was different from his:

Make sure you have multilib enabled. Give those two libraries a try. The comment is outdated, you were expected to find the new md5sum OR skip the check at your own risk. I think the new md5 as of today is b237bdf11f71031768f70a34397fbca0

YAOMTC · 2015-02-06 00:35:18

That was the right one, thanks. Compiled, but... that package would be in conflict with catalyst-utils...

libtxc_dxtn_s2tc and catalyst-utils are in conflict (libtxc_dxtn)

And I can't install the 32-bit one as it depends on this...

TheCycoONE · 2015-02-06 00:51:24

Do not install libtxc_dtxn, it's meant for the open source drivers and you use the proprietary amd drivers which already include support for that feature.

I believe your issue is most likely with your 32 bit catalyst drivers. You can see if there's a newer version, but there's a reason they are not shipped in the official repository and that reason is primarily that they ship too slowly to keep in sync with the rest of the stack. As long as you're not running a newish card like the 285 and/or new demanding games I recommend trying out the open source radeon drivers. In my experience you'll encounter a lot fewer problems with them.

frank604 · 2015-02-06 00:57:53

Thanks for the input thecycoone! I don't have an ati card so I was going to suggest something that I now know wouldn't work.

YAOMTC · 2015-02-06 04:31:29

Turns out it was a Catalyst issue. Switched to xf86-video-ati and it launches fine, thanks!

Though now I've got the fan speed issue back, which was part of the reason I switched to catalyst. Also, I actually get some higher framerates in WoW, but the transitions between light and heavy graphics load is much choppier. Bit of a trade-off there.

frank604 · 2015-02-06 05:15:08

Oh I heard of that fan issue. Use a long term support Linux kernel, linux-lts. Ill find that thread for you later if you haven't found it.

YAOMTC · 2015-02-06 05:35:14

Switching to a different kernel is way too drastic a measure for such a minor issue. The fan speed just revs up too often when scrolling in Firefox, which is only slightly annoying. It doesn't run loud all the time, at least.
