maemo.org - Talk - Application (VCMI) not working from .desktop file

Hi everyone,

I have a strange issue (in the SDK as well as on the N900). After porting VCMI, it runs fine from the terminal, by simply running "vcmiclient". But if I start it from the .desktop file, (1.) the sound doesn't work and (2.) the game freezes on starting a new game. (#2 only happens on the N900, it works in the SDK). The only error I get is from the SDK, as I get no terminal output when running from the .desktop file on the N900. Here are the lines:

Code:

When running from the terminal the sound works flawless:

The .desktop file:

Code:

[Desktop Entry]

Encoding=UTF-8

Version=1.0

Name=VCMI Heroes 3

GenericName=Rewrite of the Heroes of Might and Magic 3 Engine

Exec=vcmiclient

Type=Application

Icon=vcmi

#X-Osso-Service=com.nokia.maemopad

X-Osso-Type=application/x-executable

X-HildonDesk-ShowInToolbar=true

Categories=Game;

Terminal=true

Please note that I also tried to comment and change various lines for testing (like Terminal=false, X-HildonDesk-ShowInToolbar=false or commenting some of the X-* options). I also tried the "Exec=run-standalone.sh vcmiclient" as well as with full path etc. Nothing helped...

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Dan
