Need some help (Linux Install)

<< < (2/2)

Omega_Shadow:
Don't be jealous. Modern Linux Systems take the need to compile programs yourself to a bare minimum. Most programs are already pre-compiled and are one-click installs. Actually, I would much rather be doing this on a Win2kpro system as I would have less problems with the game architecture and my Flight Controller (witch Linux has labeled a Universal Power Supply :hopping: )

Well, I tried it for the 10th time and it worked, though it did freeze my computer on exit. I think this is the log you where asking for. It was the only log file I could find in .fs2_open folders

I would try changing your resolution to your native. ie mine is:

 $cat $HOME/.fs2_open/fs2_open.ini
[Default]
VideocardFs2open=OGL -(1280x1024)x32 bit
LastPlayer=oaul


Also, make sure you have glx rendering support
$glxinfo | grep -i render
direct rendering: Yes
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) 852GM/855GM 20050225

(For the above I had to enable DRI for my integrated video, else it would flash black screen and exit)

Also, what is your video card?

S-99:
You could always run fs2 open in wine. I got that working, it just required two dll files that the linux console told me was needed to run fs2 open and put those in the wine fake windows drive. And it works.
