Hi, this is my first time in the forums but I've been following the emulator development for a while. My problem is:

I'm using the x86 linux version of dolphin, but everytime I try to load a game, be it a GC or a Wii iso the emulator closes.

The log:
Code:
41:45:691 Source/Core/Common/Src/FileUtil.cpp:97 W[COMMON]: IsDirectory: stat failed on ./user/Wii/title/00000001/00000002/content:
41:46:423 Source/Core/DolphinWX/Src/X11Utils.cpp:115 N[Video]: XRRExtension-Version 1.3
41:46:424 Source/Core/DolphinWX/Src/X11Utils.cpp:158 N[Video]: Fullscreen Resolution 640x480
41:52:502 Source/Plugins/Plugin_VideoOGL/Src/GLUtil.cpp:359 N[Video]: glX-Version 1.4

The emulator was compiled using the latest SVN. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

Try r6218 or newer. That has a linux x11 fix that affected a great number of people running Dolphin on Linux.

I'm sorry i hadn't replied, but I've been busy. Dolpin still closes with the same log with revision 6222. I forgot to mention I'm compiling dolphin in another machine then copying it to mine.

I've also noticed when building dolphin it says i686, and AFAIK the distro I use is i586 based. Could this have something to do with it? and if yes, is there some way i can compile dolphin for i586? Thank you.

Somebody? I'm about to build a new computer and put linux in it, but dolphin is the only thing keeping me from doing so. Please help?Undecided

fwiw, that i586<->i686 stuff doesn't matter.

Is Dolphin really crashing or "just" closing? Are you able to compile a debug build (scons flavor=debug) and build a backtrace?
What gfx drivers do you have installed? distro's default or the ones of your gpu vendor?
