Oh my, Eternal Lands Crashed - Don't Panic!

 

A few of things you can try:

1) Make sure your system is up to date, especially your video drivers.

2) If the client crashes repeatedly, try changing some settings. Either by directly modifying the configuration file (e.g. gedit ~/.elc/main/el.ini). Or clicking the settings button window at the login screen.

i) Enable the "Poor Man" option in the "Details" tab of the setting window. Or edit the configuration file and set "#poor_man=1".

ii) Disable the "Use animation program" option in the "Adv Video" tab of the setting window. Or edit the configuration file and set "#use_animation_program=0".

iii) Disable the "Custom Looks Updates" option in the "Server" tab of the setting windows. Or edit the configuration file and set "#customupdate=0".

 

If you continue to have problems check the Eternal Lands forums, especially the "Help Me" and "Bug Report" sections. If you post a message make sure you include information about your system; i.e video driver and version, operating system and version. Make sure you check your error log for clues too and include the contents in any forum report.

 

This information about your graphic hardware and software may help.

To make a new account you install the game and click the "New Character" button on the login screen.

 

 

 

I run Linux have nvdia graphics card with expermental 3d driver ubuntu 11.04. crashes whem I [ush new character.

If you're talking about the Nouveau driver, then that'll be the issue. As you pointed out, it can still be described as being in 'experimental' stages, so if you'd like to play EL i suggest using the nvidia binary driver at least until nouveau is better developed.

 

The nvidia binary driver is provided in Ubuntu's repositories, I believe in 11.04 the package is called 'nvidia-current'.

 

If you have an older nVidia 5xxx series card you'll need 'nvidia-173' and for even older cards you'll need 'nvidia-96'.

 

EDIT:

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV17 [GeForce4 MX 440] (rev a3)

You will need the nvidia-96 package.
