..:: PCSX2 Forums ::..

Games freeze as soon as they start. They show one frame and then stop completely.
PCSX2 itself doesn't stop responding or crash.

I installed PCSX2 just through the normal Linux Mint / Ubuntu package repositories with apt-get, no PPA. It says it is version 1.4.0-0.

I've tested Super Monkey Ball Adventure and SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom (both PAL with a European BIOS) through the ISO selector and they both hung on the first frame.

When I run PCSX2 from the command line nothing appears when the games freeze. On startup, it just says this and nothing else until it's closed:

I'm using a proprietary NVIDIA driver: nvidia-384 (version 384.111-0ubuntu0.16.04.1).
I don't know if this is relevant, but in Mint's driver manager, there's a choice between intel-microcode (version 3.20180108.0+really20170707ubuntu16.04.1) and "Do not update the CPU microcode", and the latter is selected.

If there's any other information or screenshots or anything I can provide, I'd be happy to. I really want to get this to work.

Thanks. Smile

Did you install multiarch libraries for 32-Bit support?

These packages were installed with PCSX2:

libwxgtk3.0-0v5:i386

libx11-6:i386

zlib1g:i386

Strange, it feels like a segmentation fault.

Turns out this is not the case for all games. I just tested The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie Game and it works.

The games that didn't work were both released in the Australia / New Zealand region, but the game that worked was released in Europe. Possibly relevant?

Shadow of the Colossus NA version also works.
