Issues starting game on Fedora 26

[thetaArc]

Hi,

 

I just got the game and when I go to run it, it starts and then just crashes without a screen popping up or anything. I've tried it on Gnome Wayland and Gnome Xorg

 

OS: Fedora 26

CPU: Ryzen 5 1600

GPU: Radeon R9 270X

 

Some of the errors from the log...

 

ERROR: ld.so: object '/home/$USER/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/gameoverlayrenderer.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32): ignored.

 

 

process 10148: arguments to dbus_connection_unref() were incorrect, assertion "connection->generation == _dbus_current_generation" failed in file ../../dbus/dbus-connection.c line 2794.

This is normally a bug in some application using the D-Bus library.

 

UPDATE: While I can't test this with Avorion I've had similar issues with another game (Dwarfcorp) and it seems a fix was found.

 

 

This fix was tested on Fedora 27

Try deactivating the steam overlay and make sure you have the latest driver for your GPU (check AMD page).

If that doesn't help, please post the entire log.

GPU drivers are updated to the lastest ones in fedora's repos (Driver: X.Org AMD PITCAIRN (DRM 2.50.0 / 4.13.5-200.fc26.x86_64, LLVM 4.0.1); Driver Version:  3.0 Mesa 17.2.2), since you wouldn't/ shouldn't install drivers from a website on linux.

 

Then I should've noted in the OP that the log was just those two errors repeated 50x times each.

 

I have however refunded the game for now. But I'll buy in again in a few updates and post something if there are any issues or if it ends up being fixed in the future.
