Forgot to mention that I'm running on Fedora 20 (x86_64) if that matters.

Looks like a problem with pulseaudio and forked, there has been a patch for this I think. Not sure. If you disable audio in exult.cfg does it start then?

Now why didn't I think of that. Yes, it works without sound.

Btw, thanks for reporting the faulty SVN snapshot. It's now pointing at the automated source code zipper on the SourceForge project page.

Could you try again with latest source and audio enabled? I disabled forked Midi and made Fmopl top default. It should help but it'd be best if you could confirm this

I just compiled the latest code and your fix with FMOpl works. U7 just wasn't right without music. Thanks.

thanks a lot for confirming!
