After having played 6 games in a row that I had to kill due to UI locking up during the AI's "thinking" (which is much wimpier than before) I have a new request. If you guys aren't going to revert this broken version of Iagno, then please just remove it 'cause it just looks bad.
I suggest replacing it with grhino which appears to actually work. It may not look as attractive, but the AI responds instantly, and with intelligent moves. And who cares about looks if the game doesn't work, right? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-games in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/988138 Title: Iagno hangs every game or two in Ubuntu 12.04, is very slow to take AI turns, crashes, loops sounds and gives wrong score in the end. Worked fine in 11.10 Status in “gnome-games” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Following is spammed to ~/.xsession-errors - might be related. ** (iagno:30066): CRITICAL **: computer_player_move: assertion `self != NULL' failed Once it hangs, if it is playing sounds of pieces, those loop indefinitely. You can't close it using the X in the app window, or quit in the left Unity 2D bar. You have to open a terminal and issue a kill. After the kill, this is spammed to .xsession-errors. unity-2d-shell: [WARNING] QDBusError("org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownMethod", "No such interface `org.ayatana.bamf.application' on object at path /org/ayatana/bamf/application890181547") Also, I really really dislike the new error message that shows up on illegal moves. I assume that used to be in the footer of the app window, I can't recall. All I know is that every time it shows up, the playing area shrinks slightly, which is really distracting. Oh, also, the application seems to be overall much more sluggish than in the prior release.
