Gnome-hearts is it dead ??

Post by uncleBob »

After a recent update/upgrade to my LMDE 1204 distro, my card game of gnome-hearts will not open and run !!! Has anyone experienced this loss, and has anyone found a fix ?? All my other gnome based card games work normally, so I'm hoping for an easy answer.
Thanks, Bob

Just installed on my Sid install - works fine. If you run from a terminal does it report any errors?

NOTSolved : Gnome-hearts is dead ??

Thanks for the tip. The terminal replys ' /usr/games ' is not included in the PATH environment variable. gnome-hearts : command not found.
I have purged and re-installed the package, and yet the PATH environment variable is not being established. How can this be done manually ??

This should work:

Code: Select all

echo 'export PATH=$PATH:/usr/games' >> ~/.bashrc
Log out/in to test.

Thanks for the suggestion, but that didn't work either !!
I purged the game, then re-installed it, and tried to run it from the terminal,
and here's the terminal response ...........

That is strange, there are some significant differences to mine:

Note the two root processes at the bottom. But dbus is running, might be a mate thing??????

Do you have gdb installed?

If so:

Code: Select all

gdb gnome-hearts
When you see the (gdb) prompt type run, then press enter. Post output here.

Really stupid question, are you running as root? Because the only way I can get the same errors is if I su or sudo.

Code: Select all

But other than that, unfortunately gdb did not tell me anything - I am stumped.

(NOTSolved) ! Gnome-hearts is dead ??

Post by uncleBob »

Steve, when I run as user, I get an error of "Segmentation fault", and when I run as root, I get the errors as previously posted. I had a spare partition on my HD, so I tried a fresh install of LMDE1204 to see if I could run GHearts there. I did a complete update, and installed GHearts, but that didn't work either. I'm wondering now that support for gdm2 is gone, what desktop replaces it in such a way that "old" programs written for gdm would continue to work under the "fancy" new desktop managers. I will try cinnamon on my test LMDE1204 to see if it works. I run many distros off the same HD, and in all cases, GHearts runs fine !! What is common to all is that they run gdm or gdm2 as managers, so perhaps GHearts is not compatible with the newest desktop managers. Just a random thought, and thanks for all your efforts to trace down my dilemma.

I don't use mint. I use Kubuntu but I stumbled on this thread and registered to give you a possible answer. Hearts will crash when you try to open it if you had a custom background image and then deleted or moved that image outside of the program before changing the image in the game first. The solution is to put the image back in the same location with the same name. Hope this helps.

...thanks for your reply. I didn't use any custom backround. When I purged hearts from my system, that should have wiped it clean, and then re-installing it should reset everything to default. I'm running Mint Maya 13 right now, and all is fine. I feel the problem is with Mint Debian desktop manager! Now, if I want to run (pure) Debian, I use Debian6, and it works fine, and so does gnome hearts !! Go figure who messed up ! No more Mint Debian for me :(
