Default Re: DOSBox 0.65 ... ftw

Recently, I got a strange problem with Dosbox on N900. When i try to use it with:
Code:
output=overlay
...in config, Dosbox crash with segfault. Here is output I get, when running it from within terminal:
Code:
DOSBox version 0.74
Copyright 2002-2010 DOSBox Team, published under GNU GPL.
---
CONFIG:Loading primary settings from config file /home/user/.dosbox/dosbox-0.74.conf
ALSA lib seq_hw.c:457:(snd_seq_hw_open) open /dev/snd/seq failed: No such file or directory
ALSA:Can't open sequencer
MIDI:Opened device:none
Segmentation fault
I thought it is something sound-related, but messing with sound emulation settings doesn't help, and just setting:
Code:
output=surface
..."fixes" the problem. Ho ever, surface doesn't allow scalling, so I get original resolution (even in fullscreen) = most games are unplayable, or too small to be enjoyable.

The most weird thing is, that it worked with same setting ~2 months ago. I haven't used dosbox in meantime, nor changed it's settings. Ho ever, for sure I've updated some packages - I got no idea, which one may be related. I'm using latest CSSU and kp48 (also was updated in time between last use of dosbox, and today failure)

I tried to search this thread for similar issues, without any luck. Help *much* appreciated...
