[Linux] Can't select provinces on the map.

[Dax Tailor]

Hello,

I searched the forum for this problem and found you are already working on it. But maybe this will help you to fix it.
(I like to get a fix, it take the fun a little out of the game when I have to restart it when this happens. But the game is still worth playing!

The problem appears after selecting about 12 different provinces on the map. Than I can only select provinces I've never selected before. Looks like the province itself somehow "knows" it was selected once before and than ignored further selections. The tooltip when I hover the mouse above a province still works.

I use Linux Mint 14. Playing in full screen mode with 2560x1440.
The problem does not depend if the game was started within the steam client or from the command line.

If there is anything I can do to help. Trying something or so, please let me know.

Best regard,
Dax

PS.
I'm a SW developer and know I difficult it can be so find a bug with out a way to reproducing it.

Can you point me to the other thread you mention, please?

This sounds like the issue that can happen if you alt-tab out of EU4 linux version, but I don't recall it offhand under CK2.

It was this one:

http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum...ame-is-not-allowing-me-to-select-my-provinces

The "Switch-Workspace" problem I have too but then I can't select any province any more.
With ALT-Tab, it shows the same problem I described before, so ALT-Tab and switching the workspace differs.

BTW, I forgot to mention: CK2 Version is 1.111, no DLC's (yet!!!) but the modded german language files, NVidia driver still at 304.88 (I had problems with the graphic in Minecraft with a newer one. But that is a while ago. I will try the newest NVidia driver soon.) 64 bit Linux system.

Hope this will help.

Just found something funny. The number 12 I mentioned could be 10, but 10 are the numbers of the different sounds they play when you click on the map in the screen to select your first province (before you hit "start"). Maybe a coincidence, but who knows?

The alt-tab problem should be fixed in the next patch. Let us know if the video driver update helps.

I just installed the new NVidia driver (NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-319.49, downloaded it direct from the NVidia web side). It looks like my selection problem is gone. So far I can't reproduce it anymore. Thanks for making me update the driver

The problems with minecraft and the other drivers I tested are gone too. Looks like NVidia fixed some problem in the new driver.

Its certainly not the first time, blaming the application for a bug in the driver. (I develop linux application and linux driver. So I have to blame myself very often

I'm looking forward to the next patch. Beside from the ALT-Tab problem, the game is running very stable for hours. So please keep up the good work.

Thanks
Dax
