RE: Segmentation Fault as user only



It would probably help to install the game or link it to /usr/local/

Subject: Segmentation Fault as user only


I'm new to Linux.  Just installed RH7.1 - everything seemed to go OK.
My son wanted to try his hand at some of the games - so I added him as a
user - and ran into a small problem.
I can run the game 'Maelstrom' as root - no problems.  If, however, I
log in
as any other user (or my son logs in), the game won't run.  I thought
perhaps PATH had something to do with it - but the executable resides in
/usr/bin (which is in both the root and user PATH's).
In a terminal window, as root, I can type in /usr/bin/Maelstrom - it
runs
fine. If I 'su user' or login as another user, the same  action gets me
the
following error : 'Segmentation fault'.

Any ideas?
Thanks,
Otto.
