@langurmonkey: .SRCINFO should be updated - otherwise it still lists jre8-openjdk as a dependency instead of jre11 (and fails to install on my machine).

Ok, I see. Libgdx's Linux backend uses xorg-xrandr to get the display modes. I will update the package, thanks!

Hey, sorry for answering so late... Somehow I have missed your reply. I just wanted to reinstall gaiasky and recognized the same error again. After installing xorg-xrandr it was resolved. At this point this is all I can say, because I have forgotten the exact way I got to this solution. I will take a further look...

Edit: Here is some more Information at StackOverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/31277482/libgdx-cant-start-desktop-project-on-ubuntu

@StarPicard, how is xorg-xrandr a dependency? I don't see any connection between the randr command line utils and gaiasky. Could you elaborate?

Hey, first of all: Thank You for maintaining and developing this Software!

In my setup there was a missing dependency: xorg-xrandr

This is the developer. This bug is weird, I use Arch in all my machines and never encountered it, nor was the issue reported from any other distro or operating system. Basically, there is a pool of vector objects to avoid memory allocation. Each frame we need to compute the RA/DEC position of hte mouse pointer. For that, a couple of vectors are requested (one contains the input screen x and y coordinates, the other is for the output RA/DEC/Distance information). As it turns out, the output vector returned by the pool is null, which is VERY strange. Can you outline what more or less in what situation the crash occurs? Is it completely random? What is the camera mode? I created a new issue in github for this here: https://github.com/ari-zah/gaiasky/issues/83 Thanks for reporting!

The app. hangs up (always) after a while (it's random, sometime it takes longer, sometime right), but obviously with the very same "Exception in thread "LWJGL Application" java.lang.NullPointerException" failure: { java -Xms1g -Xmx2g -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -cp "/opt/gaiasky/lib/*" gaia.cu9.ari.gaiaorbit.desktop.GaiaSkyDesktop GlobalConf - GUI scale factor set to 0.96946806 Loaded 1 music files Configuration saved to ~/.gaiasky/global.properties Display mode set to 1600x1200, fullscreen: false FOV: 0.89079 19:22:25: GaiaSky - GLSL version: 4.50 NVIDIA ... ... ...
