It works so far, but there's no sound. I used duke on Linux about a year ago or so and there definetely was sound. So what a I doing wrong? SDL_sound* ae installed (dev too).

Could you post with which versions of eduke and txbuild you used ? I couldnt get it to run through. Also there should be better explanation about the whole process of unpacking the two archives ... - stechlinger

There should be sound with the September build again, tried that one yet? --DaVince 12:07, 22 December 2007 (PST)


Just installed it on Ubuntu. Note: (1). Checked with "aptitude search stl". There was so much libstl stuff, some installed and others not, that I left it. libstdc++6 was installed so I left it also. Installed nasm only. (2). txbuild was not mentioned in the repository, but the src code package included a "build" directory and an "eduke32" directory so I assume that this was sufficient. Anyway going into eduke32: (3). It compiled flawlessly. (4). First run it found DUKE3D.GRP but complained duke3d.grp was not there. Renamed the former to the lower case name that it expected, and it runs without a hitch.

Many thanks for a great effort. You are a gem.

cheers, Ken Sarkies
