BoR hang on Linux after a while

Hello,

I'm trying to play BoR on Linux (debian), the binary provided on your website is working well, except when I'm reaching the part with the girl called Angel (there are 2 thrash bin there), when I'm done with this part, BoR is just freezing and I can't do anything else. I've tried this part 3 times, with 3 different characters and it was all the same.

Here is the thing with linux.  You really can't just pick up an executable and hope it will work without any issues.  If I remember the executable located here, is based off Ubuntu.  But even then Its probably specific to the specific versioned libraries the port maker had installed on their Ubuntu machine (libc, SDL and so on).  And since its most likely statically linked (since you made no mention of downloading SDL libraries), there could be an issue with how the app communicates with the LINUX kernel.  These are all guesses, but my best guest to get you up and playing without issues require you to recompile the source on you own linux machine.

The sources are not directly available on sf.net website, but I managed to get them with svn though. The compilation went fine, and I got a "OpenBOR" executable which I put among the other beat of rage files. But it didn't work at all, all I got was a segfault.
The bor.lxe provided as a binary worked much better because I could start and run the game at least! Besides, I don't think it's statically linked because ldd told me many sdl and dependancies were dynamically linked.

I would give another try with OpenBOR.  All of last week I was reworking the dependencies and finished.  Maybe you grabbed them when the source was not yet finished.  But due remember for Linux, you got to place the menu.pak in the Paks folder in order for OpenBOR to start up.  This limitation will eventually be removed.

I plan on rewriting the whole file menu system, so it does not use the engine.  Hence making it more self contained and open for users to create there own menu images.
