Bug 525066

Works fine for me, can you try to run install the debuginfo:
debuginfo-install ballbuster

And then run it under gdb and ask for a backtrace after it has crashed ?

gdb first attempt looks like:

I am installing the additional debug info packages. 
Isn't the syntax gdb program bt?

Hi,

Yes you need to do a "bt" command in gdb after the "run" command (and the program has crashed).

Thanks.

(and the
> program has crashed).
Hmm I use gdb and the game brings up a small window followed by a large window that is black, but I can see the mouse arrow still. The large window acts like the main screen, meaning I can move the mouse and it acts like it is set to the main menu window size. In other words there is a 2 inch border around the edge of the screen the mouse can't go into. 
Anyway that screen doesn't go away until I run the kill command on gbd. I left it alone for 60 minutes before I killed it. Is there anyway to force gdb to exit upon detecting a segfault? dmesg does show ball buster is segfaulting.

Hmm,

I already was afraid something like this might happen. What you can do is try to run the game from a text console (cttrl+alt+F2) after doing;
export DISPLAY=:0.0

In the console first, so that it knows how to find X.

After typing "run" in gdb you need to switch back to X asap, because ballbuster
will try to change the resolution and if your not back in X by then, it will
fail in a different way.

Ok so CTRL+ ALT+F2 type DISPLAY=:0.0 (after login)
then gbd ballbuster, then CRTL+ALT+F1 to get back to X 
then when it fails CTRL+ ALT+F2 
type bt 
CRTL+ALT+F1 again then the traceback should display in X and I can put into a file and send here right?

Never mind it didn't work, Ballbuster just doesn't let go of the screen at all now and I have to reboot to get out of it. I type kill at the gdb prompt and it still shows the screen I was talking about earlier, but it never quits running and switching back to console and typing tb shows a breakpoint has been set but little else. 
Next idea??

Got the GDB output. 
Had to ssh into localhost and use the tee command to get the output. 
Let me know if this is what you needed.

Thx for the backtrace. However it looks like the program is not segfaulting
in this case, but aborting itself for some reason.

Did you do:
export DISPLAY=:0.0

Before starting gdb from the ssh shell, and were you logged into X, with X showing when running ballbuster from the ssh connection ?

UGH!! I forgot the export command. I was in X at least. Let me retry again.

Correctly gathered backtrace, from ssh, exported display 0.0, was in X when failed.

Let me know if it's useful.

Thanks, the crash seems to be inside Mesa, so I'm changing the component to Mesa.

Same problems with ballbuster here.

strace of ballbuster

Since this bugzilla report was filed, there have been several major updates in various components of the Xorg system, which may have resolved this issue. Users who have experienced this problem are encouraged to upgrade their system to the latest version of their packages. For packages from updates-testing repository you can use command

yum upgrade --enablerepo='*-updates-testing'

Alternatively, you can also try to test whether this bug is reproducible with the upcoming Fedora 12 distribution by downloading LiveMedia of F12 Beta available at http://alt.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/nightly-composes/ . By using that you get all the latest packages without need to install anything on your computer. For more information on using LiveMedia take a look at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraLiveCD .

Please, if you experience this problem on the up-to-date system, let us now in the comment for this bug, or whether the upgraded system works for you.

If you won't be able to reply in one month, I will have to close this bug as INSUFFICIENT_DATA. Thank you.

[This is a bulk message for all open Fedora Rawhide Xorg-related bugs. I'm adding myself to the CC list for each bug, so I'll see any comments you make after this and do my best to make sure every issue gets proper attention.]

Ran update command as you requested Ballbuster still fails.
