Bug/Issue Linux crash on loading/saving file

When starting a new game, the game crashes at the point the actual game interaction would start. Basically, when it creates the save game file (the black screen that just reads "Saving..." in the lower bottom).


The console output:

$ ./StardewValley.bin.x86
Cannot connect to server socket err = No such file or directory
Cannot connect to server request channel
jack server is not running or cannot be started

There is no other log file as indicated in the instructions to submit bugs at ~/.config/StardewValley/ErrorLogs

When I try to Load a game (of which there are none because I am unable to start a game). The following error appears:

My system:
OS: Debian testing (updated to latest packages) 32 bits
Kernel: 4.6.0-1-amd64 (I know, it is weird, that is why I run the game from the console)
BuildID 1246815

 

Yeah your setup with a 32-bit distro and a 64-bit kernel is a little odd, and it wouldn't entirely surprise me if that confuses a JIT runtime like Mono... If possible, would you be able to try running a 32-bit kernel and seeing if the same crash occurs?

 

I will see if I can do that... but while installing a 32 bit kernel is not a problem making it run due to the combination of all the drivers in both architectures may be a problem.

Will let you know if I can try anything.
--- Post updated ---
Indeed, with a 32-bit kernel the game can go through with the creation of the save-file.

If you ever plan to work on this, let me know if I can further assist you with debugging.
