Running a game crashes on Linux Mint

Bugs
#1

I’ve just installed Defold on my Linux box and created a game from Sample and Tutorial. Everytime I run with F5 or Ctrl+B, it results in a crash. I can see a window pop up momentarily and then it closes quickly.

Below are some info about my setup: (It’s an old machine.)
CPU: AMD Athlon™ 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4000+
Memory: 4GB
$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: LinuxMint
Description: Linux Mint 18.1 Serena
Release: 18.1
Codename: serena
$ uname -a
Linux dens-pc 4.4.0-53-generic #74-Ubuntu SMP Fri Dec 2 15:59:10 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Below is the console log:
INFO:DLIB: Log server started on port 42761
INFO:ENGINE: Engine service started on port 41340
INFO:ENGINE: Defold Engine 1.2.144 (8def4b5)

INFO:CRASH: Successfully wrote Crashdump to file: /home/dennis/.Defold/_crash

I’ve also attached the crash dump.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Hi @dennis2!

Sorry for this inconvenience and thanks for the report!
And the _crash file, it was useful!

It seems to be related to the input devices.
Some questions:

  1. Do you have any gamepad input bindings in your project?
  2. Do you have a game pad connected?
  3. What type of keyboard do you have connected?

Also, would you mind sharing a small repro case project?
E.g. zip up the folder (without the ./build folder) and share it here? (or via DM)

Hi, thanks for your reply.

  1. No gamepad input bindings. I had mouse click. I tried removing it as well, same result.
  2. No game pad connected.
  3. USB keyboard and mouse.

I am just using the unmodified empty Mobile game project.
