Hmmmm, launched hedgewars from CLI, get feedback which seems OK for a brand new installation.

Then the game seems to start OK , video + sound. Then I choose to run Basic Movement Training for greenhorns and there (after a window saying "Loading") I get an error: 
The game engine died unexpectedly! (exit code 217) while the window remains open and the music keeps playing.
I can choose other training options but they all fail in the same way.
Restarting the game does not give me the training options again, I can download some hedgewars content , so the access to server works at least for that. But I see no way to play the game.

Choosing training- basic movements: all seems to work OK, n further feedback at CLI. Did not go any further than this training.

Difference with Comment 2:of course 32 - 64 bit, but the IBM is much more restricted in memory (1Gb vs 4Gb on the Lenovo), that could be a reason.

Whiteboard: (none) => MGA6-64-OK

Sounds reasonable to me, Herman. I know how restrictive a 1GB machine can be. 

Validating...
