download and install sauerbraten_summer_edition. all you must do is unpack the zip file into /home/wherever and start with $cd to the sauerbraten directory and then $./bin_unix/linux_client. make sure you have the appropriate libs for sdl. the latest stable sauer version link can be found on the main website.

Thanks gear. I don't have any experience with ubuntu.

I HIGHLY suggest removing the Ubuntu package (i.e. uninstall Sauer via Synaptic) before installing the one off Sourceforge.

I'm actually posting from an Ubuntu machine. I have yet to get my graphics drivers to play nice with Sauer- the farthest I've gotten has been a black screen, and the restricted drivers caused so many other problems I spent several hours getting everyhting back to how it was beforehand. I know there's got to be an easier way, but I just haven't had the time to figure it out.

I have a Geforce 5500 in this machine, if that makes it easy to get things working.

Envy: http://www.albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html.
Problem solved.

I do a lot of helping out on kubuntuforums.net, so I'm pretty well versed in troubleshooting problems (at least on the 'buntus).

So, if Envy doesn't work for you, I guess this'd be a good enough place to dispense a little support.

It would probably be a good help if the link wasn't down!

It's not down its just that the forums here think that that last period is in the link. Just remove it and you're fine...

Interesting link. I gave it a shot, and this is what I get when I try to run Sauer:

X Error of failed request: GLXBadDrawable
Major opcode of failed request: 128 (GLX)
Minor opcode of failed request: 5 (X_GLXMakeCurrent)
Serial number of failed request: 26
Current serial number in output stream: 26

I seem to be unable to look into it, because in the Nvidia setting everytime I click OpenGL/GLX Information the window closes. Everything else seems to work fine.

Yeah, I have no clue what that means...
After installing the driver, did you do a "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg", selecting the correct driver? (Make sure you back up /etc/X11/xorg.conf first.)

meh, it's causing too many other problems to be worth looking into (such as random freezes). This isn't the first time I've had trouble with this system when trying new things, I'll let it continue as it was, sans nvidia drivers. Interesting little attempt though.

#9555: drivers

by geartrooper2 on 11/21/2007 15:47

Don't use restricted drivers. go to this link, http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?s=f9e763941030293c318e63d1ce21380c&t=72490
and follow the instructions. In my personal experience I have found this method to be unfailing. Nvidia has excellent support for linux drivers.

Is it just me, or is that installing the proprietary driver?
The proprietary driver and restricted driver are the same, are they not?

Ok, I highly recommend _not_ using Envy. I may have to completely reinstall Ubuntu, which means I'll have to reinstall Apache and vsftpd, a process I thoroughly hate. Whatever Envy did, it's making it impossible to get the system back as it was- the setup that used to work for me is now severely broken. Grah.

Stoopid video drivers, making my life difficult... >:|
