[1.1.97] Crash on launch from Steam - Pop!_OS Linux

Post by scribbles »

What did you do? Launched Factorio from Steam in Pop!_OS Linux 22.04 LTS
What happened? Load screen shows and immediately crash dialog asks if you want to open the directory containing the log file
What did you expect to happen instead? Factorio to launch normally
Does it happen always, once, or sometimes? Always. Began within the past few weeks.
If you can reproduce the issue provide the exact steps. Launch Factorio from Steam in Pop!_OS Linux 22.04 LTS

Switched back to 1.1.94, issue persists.

Do you have a keyboard with led integration?

Keyboard is using QMK firmware and has leds, but not one of the integrations in the menu (SteelSeries, Razer...). Issue also occurs without keyboard plugged into laptop.

Performed a complete reinstall of Pop!_OS Linux 22.04 LTS, Steam, and Factorio 1.1.100. Same error still occurs.

Just curious.... why would you run the game through Steam when you can just download it? It seems like you're adding in extra complexity unnecessarily. Have you tried just the game, itself, without the Steam wrapper thing?

I have tried launching it independently. Same error.

Try --disable-audio as launch option.

Open the config.ini file (see my signature for directory), change these three entries to false and remove the semicolons:

Code: Select all

; enable-razer-chroma-support=true

; enable-logitech-led-support=true

; enable-steelseries-gamesense-support=true

~/.factorio did not have ./config/config.ini created yet. Created the dir and file containing only those 3 entries. Tried with and without --disable-audio, same error. Attached factorio-current.log.

Code: Select all

aaa@aaa:~/.factorio/config$ cat config.ini 
 enable-razer-chroma-support=false

 enable-logitech-led-support=false

 enable-steelseries-gamesense-support=false

This issue is no longer occurring after recent system package updates.
