How to intall it (linux)

[Massimo32]

I have downloaded the linux version tarball and the blitzmax source code and unzipped it in the folder where i untarred the linux tarball....OK

where can i get the above library ...i use suse 10.1....
how do i start the game ?

thanks

In suse the library should be already installed (it's in the xorg-x11-libs package).
So try this (as root):

Code: Select all

ln -s /usr/X11/lib/libXxf86vm.so.1 /usr/X11/lib/libXxf86vm.so
ldconfig

Ciao.

the first line says the file is already installed...actually i had installed the library separately via YaST and the second line apparently does something in the bakground but no physical result on the Konsole

again how do i start the game...
I iNstalled it along with the blitzmax source code(some files with .bmx extension)..
./yoda-soccer gives me permission error as su

thanks

You don't need the source code to run the game.

./yoda-soccer gives me permission error as su

Could you copy&paste the error?

The error is related to the game being unable to switch the graphics resolution required for the match,

I don't have a solution but you may try:
- switch from Fullscreen to Windowed mode and viceversa (in Game Options)
- using different resolution (in Match Options)
