Cicero Report post Posted June 8, 2004 Um . . . wtf? Start by getting the latest version, for one thing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Entropy Report post Posted June 8, 2004 Besides that, it might be ebtter if you would unzip the file in such a way that the directory info is preserved, rather than putting all the files in the same directory. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cicero Report post Posted June 8, 2004 I don't know if it's even possible to screw that up without trying real hard in linux. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted June 8, 2004 It is the latest version. I just "unzip her" it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Entropy Report post Posted June 9, 2004 This is very strange indeed. Are you sure you have the latest drivers? If so, cna you try to roll back to some previous drivers? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted June 12, 2004 Well these are latest Nvidia provided drivers, but that cant be much of topic. I will not switch to older package, taking in account problems I had instaling these. I dont think that I ll be able to run this thing. I have very bad idea how linux handles such things as graphic interface. (And cards etc.) I know that in windows its DirectX, which is an attempt to write an universal interface to everything and part of the windows problems.

Platyna Report post Posted June 14, 2004 Hello. Be that nice and: Run X server (graphic mode if you already didn't that). Then open a x console, enter directory whe is EL binary and run it by: ./el.x86.linux.bin And if it fails then paste whole output here. (BTW: All files from Linux update already has correct permissions set.) Regards. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted June 14, 2004 Well thats what I m doing, I muff, but that much of it...

Platyna Report post Posted June 14, 2004 Hello. Upgrade/Install libXML2. You should find it on your distribution FTP. The Linux binary has been compiled using version 2.6.9 of Lib XML2 othewise it was failing. Upgrade to this version and then run new binary. Make sure you replaced all old files with those in EL update package. Regards. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted June 14, 2004 NOw the game runs, but I get rubish of tiles on game screen. As on the picture before, so nothing changed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Platyna Report post Posted June 14, 2004 chmod 755 el.x86.linux.bin Anyway files from update already has correctly permissions set so you seems to changed it by mistake. And if you install nVidia drivers from nvidia.com you need change /etc/X11/XF86Config: # This loads the DRI module # Load "dri" (This is not needed when you have nvidia driver) # Section "DRI" # Mode 0666 # EndSection (same thing) Need to find line where is: Driver "nv" and instead of it put "nvidia" and it should look like that: Driver "nvidia" MAKE BACKUP of your existing XF86Config file BEFORE making any changes. That should cause your Nvidia driver to work properly. Regards. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted June 14, 2004 I Chmod the binary also, that was one of first things I did... I m using NVIDIA drivers and have edited config -- I also get NVIDIA logo when starting X (I m using KDE then).

Guest Report post Posted June 14, 2004 AS I said: the game window opens. The bash desnt tell a thing, everything seems to be running good. Except - in the game window is rubbish of tilesets. Picture is basically still the same: http://www.sweb.cz/hawkwind/hpim0378.jpg When I run with cursor into game window, cursor disapears. I can do something with mouse clickin, but its not recognisable due to graphical problem. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Platyna Report post Posted June 15, 2004 Hello. Ok. Make sure you have decend version of libXML2,run: ldconfig then download whole game from: http://el.tfm.ro/el_099.zip run the game. If it will be not ok then remove el.cfg from your .elc dir and game dir. If that will be not ok then we will try compile it from source If it fail we will know what it wrong in your system and if it will compile then it should work. "Don't give up!" ;-) Regards.
