Shank 2 Fedora 17, crash on launch

[pholklore]

Trying out update2 of Shank 2 on a Fedora 17 laptop, I get:

$ ./shank2-bin

ERROR: Missing required OpenGL extensions.

ERROR: Missing required OpenGL extensions.

ERROR: Missing required OpenGL extensions.

ERROR: Missing required OpenGL extensions.

Segmentation fault

I get the same with both the 32 and the 64-bit binaries.

This is on a ThinkPad T520, i7-2620M @ 2.70GHz, with an intel integrated graphics. lspci says:

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09)

Which extensions could be missing? Of course, I've no clue whether the segfault is related.

The latest update should now log OpenGL extensions.

Can we ask you to please download it and send in the <username>/Library/Klei/Shank2/rendering.log file?

It will hopefully help us to track down what the issue is.

Thanks!

That will most likely be ~/.klei/shank2/rendering.log (or perhaps inside of the log directory) since Fedora is not mac.

Thanks for the update. Here it is:

BTW, I have an external monitor (and I was hoping to play the game on it), and after all those mode switches, and the games crashes, I end up with the external monitor disabled, which makes me suspect that even if the game loaded, it'd be running on the wrong monitor... Anyway, one issue at a time.

Here's the gdb backtrace when the game segfaults:

...

From a non-stripped binary, you should be able to figure out what lines 0x7007a0, 0x6bbf3b, 0x6bc252 are

(w/ addr2line, or "info line" in gdb).

Hmm...it looks as if your drivers might need to be updated.

There is a "EXT_texture_compression_s3tc required" error that is being reported in the start-up.

From what I understand, this video driver is not always included in the libraries. It may be that you need to install the 32-bit drivers for your card.

[pholklore]

Okay, got it. I needed to install the s3tc libraries, which are not installed or distributed by default by Fedora, because the s3tc compression method is patented... I'm actually a bit shocked to learn this, having bought the game through humble bundle, and in the process having contributed to the EFF, to ... hopefully get rid of software patents.

Anyway, after installing them the game does now launch. However, it's not completely successful.

I went to configure the resolution, and the screen went black (after selecting the desired resolution). Waiting the 15 seconds doesn't fix it.

Only way out is to switch to another VT and kill the process. Even if I don't change the resolution,

sometime the screen goes all black on launch, other times it won't. So it seems there's something wrong

with mode/resolution switching.
