Something has gone wrong and the game wont start, simply crashes and gives me a crash report, see attached file. I don't think I did something wrong when installing the snapshot, maybe someone can help? I have the latest launcher.

Didn't use the parameters since I haven't needed to use them before.

But I did the simplest thing and restarted my computer, which showed me that my nvidia-drives got borked ... needed to do this: http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/ubuntu-quetzal-nvidia.html to get it fixed.

Now it works just fine. Sigh. That's what I get for using the latest ubuntu X).

Did you follow the instructions of http://minecraft.net/download ?

Minecraft for Linux / Other

Download minecraft.jar (89 KB). The jar is executable and might work as-is. If you run into memory issues, try launching it with java -Xmx1024M -Xms512M -cp minecraft.jar net.minecraft.LauncherFrame, also please use Sun's JVM.

According to the crash report you've started Minecraft without the -Xmx ... parameters

Have tried downloading new launcher and "force update", but still the same error.

How can I check?

Sounds like something of your graphics card is out of memory.

Are your graphics card drivers up to date ?
