#46 Segfaults at startup

[Ben Darnell]

Whenever I run UT, it shows the splash screen for a few seconds, then segfaults. Even when I use the slowguard 4.02B binaries, no log files are created and the only output is
"Signal: Segmentation fault!
Segmentation fault"

Here's a stack trace from gdb:

I'm running glide 2.60 (with a voodoo3 2000 agp), XF86 3.3.6, kernel 2.2.13, and /dev/3dfx driver 2.3.4 on a Debian unstable system.

One more note - UT demo worked fine, as do Q2 full and Q3A demo

Same problem on my slackware 7 system Voodoo 2 3dfx XF863.3.3.6 /dev/3dfx ?? version...

I dont get the splash screen at all in my incarnation of this bug.

whatever ucc is for... tried running it as it is another executable...
I complaints about my ini file as in it cannot find it?
