By default, Bugzilla does not search the list of RESOLVED bugs.
You can force it to do so by putting the upper-case word ALL in front of your search query, e.g.: ALL tdelibs
We recommend searching for bugs this way, as you may discover that your bug has already been resolved and fixed in a later release.

Description Kris 2011-11-17 22:39:09 CST

When I try to load the Potato Guy game, I get the following error:

---
Fatal error:

Unable to load pictures, aborting.
--

The only button is the OK button, which closes the error dialog.

Confirmed.

Running from Konsole presents this message:

QFile::open: No file name specified

BTW: the binary name is ktuberling.

Patch works but there is no sound.

As far as I can tell from strace, ktuberling finds the sound files but they don't play.

Updated patch

Found a few more inadvertent changes to the "tq" prefix.

Recompiled but still no sound.

Comment 5 Darrell 2011-12-06 21:54:07 CST

Correction. Yesterday the sound did not work --- in a virtual machine, although other apps using sound in the virtual machine worked fine.

Today after testing in an actual physical machine, the sound for ktuberling works there and in the virtual machine too. No explanation. :shrug:

Comment 6 Darrell 2011-12-08 18:35:48 CST

Okay, now I have an explanation. I do a lot of TDE testing in a virtual machine as root. The VM is sandboxed and running as root often saves time for testing only one change and I need not worry about permissions getting in the way.

Ah, never mind, I'm not going to justify running as root. Anybody who doesn't like that can find a tree to bark at.

Anyway, there is no sound when I run ktuberling as root but there is sound when run as normal user. :)

It appears that this was fixed in R14.0 via an automated script during the renaming project.

Thanks for reporting!
