Hello,
here the results of the stuff you suggested:
- the "factorio-current.log" is empty (ansd yes I DID start the game before looking at it :b)
- strace puts out the following:

Code: Select all

execve("./.factorio", ["./.factorio"], [/* 50 vars */]) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)
write(2, "strace: exec: Permission denied\n", 32strace: exec: Permission denied
) = 32
exit_group(1)                           = ?
+++ exited with 1 +++
- Distro is Fedora 20 with Gnome-Shell 3.12.2
- Video Card is an AMD Radeon 7870 2GB

Ok, one thing I should have asked first: What exactly does it do when starting? Do you see the loading screen at least for some time? How does it crash your computer? It reboots, freezes, ... ?
About the strace: It needs the same command you use to launch Factorio from command line in the place of ./factorio ; this seems like you didn't launch it at all.

Ah, okey then, my bad, I though you just had to be in the main folder, now I get something that looks more usable:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/178 ... strace.txt

When I start the game it gets to about 10% of the loading screen and then my pc just completely freezes and I have to cut the power to shut it down (:

According to that strace, Factorio crashes some time during loading, but ends (relatively) normally, logs an error message and exits. I'll think about it some more :-)

Well, in the strace Factorio crashes before using any of the new texture allocation stuff from 0.10.2. The crash itself was a bug and we fixed it for 0.10.3, but why your computer goes with it is a total mystery.....

Hm, so it should work again for 0.10.3? (: I would be happy with that :D

I don't know, we will see :-). I'm moving this to pending, please report if it works after you try it in 0.10.3.
