Daily reminder that Linux is only Bread&Circus. The hardware is backdoored, you're still vunerable. A chain is as strong as its weakest link.

>getting an error telling me that DirectDraw doesn't work

post a screen of the error and logs or search the error, if I had to guess, install directx using winetricks or linux4gaming

if those don't help, would be running it in winxp in virtualbox but that's drastic for that game and you should get that game running

There's a linux clone in dev: http://openage.sft.mx/

Resident Evil 0 in dolphin for halloween and Pulsar the lost colony over the weekend. Also darkwood, tabletop simulator, and xcom 2

Haven't had any problems playing what I want on linux. The only games that haven't worked were dx11 games, but that will soon not be an issue

I am, come at me bro

I did use arch openrc until using the package manage it broke and I found out after they stopped supporting it and it pissed me right off. I don't use pulseaudio, but I will dump systemd again

>>13552254

Slackware. Because it's the most UNIX-like. GPL versions are still gay as fuck. BSD versions shit on your cuck licenses. Apparently you're ok being cucked.

To both of those I have to say Doom. There is a staggering amount of mods and wads for it, can sink hours into it without getting bored, and listen to shit while playing it. Don't know if it can be qualified as comfy, though.

>>13552591

Classic disinfo, Chaim. Security is a spectrum. Only alphabet soup agencies have access to hardware backdoors, and that's accessed in the case of a targeted attack. Not the usual info scraping. Which means that if you're not drawing their attention, it doesn't really matter if it's backdoored.

Besides, GNU+Linux is plain superior to Windows anyways.

BSD licenses are the cuck ones, lad.

Artix is replacing Arch-OpenRC, are you going to migrate to it? https://artixlinux.org/

>>13552647

Yeah, saw that, might have look at void first

Right now I'm playing Immortal Redneck, I beat it a while ago, but from time to time and slowly fill the skill tree. I'll probably get to detention when I have more time.

I haven't been able to launch either dying light or dead island (same engine), I just get a black screen with a white bar that when it's about to finish crashes. I have an amd hd 7770 and I'm using mesa 17.2.2 and llvm 5, if anyone has a similar setup and can get it to work, let me know.

I'm playing Deponia: The Complete Journey at the moment. I had it on my backlog since forever because I was not in the mood for a point n click adventure, but now that I started it I'm hooked.

>>13552254

>Personally, I'm trying to get Age of Empires II to run on Artix with Wine.

I use Windows, because games just work. Fuck Linux. I'll use Linux when all the games are compatible.

>>13552696

Sorry, I can't really understand people that are on the spectrum, bless their hearts for trying though. Anyway, what he said was wrong because there have been exploits that use Intel ME for a while. EternalBlue uses the Intel ME to gain root privlages.

>>13552720

and intel ME can be partially disabled at least. Though, if you care about ME and PSP shenanigans you should be using an FX cpu. God, I wish AMD eventually releases something to disable PSP on ryzen

>>13552720

You are on the spectrum, because nothing you typed makes any sense.

Try the bleeding edge wine, I read they got dx11 working to an extent

>>13552734

>God, I wish AMD eventually releases something to disable PSP on ryzen

No they won't. AMD representives said they have no plans to, even when it was the most upboated suggestion on r/AMD.

>>13552720

you know you can install libreboot to give intel me the middle finger, right

>>13552758

Good luck using pre-2006 Intel hardware, but I already have a Librebooted Thinkpad T400

>>13552749

they have linux ports. but it seems there was some retarded shit on the devs' part that made it not work on mesa initially, and even now you need some environment variables but it should be working since mesa 17.2, and it works for other people. but not me

I'd rather ditch SystemD but I like Manjaro and my system just werks. If some new non-shit replacement comes out and gets put in every major Distro or Manjaro releases OpenRC/Runit packages that will be maintained consistently then I'll jump, but as it is I'll live with it.

>>13552826

Nigger, Manjaro OpenRC got ditched in favor of Artix. Manjaro is pure systemd shit now.

>>13552565

> Not Gentoo

I know the "install Gentoo" meme, but Gentoo is unironically the best distro.

>>13553073

I used it for a long time, it's really not. It's just a meme bro. It's still good though

Cuphead runs in Wine but I want to use my controller with it. Other than that I've been playing The Typing of the Dead.

I tried playing OFF and a few other old RPGMaker games, but Wine doesn't seem to like them. Is there a trick to it? Games made in later RPGMaker engines seem to work fine, it's just 2003 that fucks up.

AntiX and MX are fucking good. I wish I tried them out sooner.

Trying to get Cho Ren Sha 68K working in Wine but it keeps crashing no matter what version I use. How do I emulate earlier Windows versions besides WinXP in Wine? I've never had to mess with this before but Cho Ren Sha works best in Win98 compatibility mode.

>>13553812

anon, please. I use my 3ds as a controller for cuphead over wine

>>13553850

I've got a generic Xinput pad. There's conflicting info on whether Wine supports Xinput, or whether you have to use external tools to get it to work.

How did you set yours up?

>>13553812

Take a look at EasyRPG. It plays most RPG Maker 2000 and 2003 games pretty well if they don't use weird third party patches.

>What are you playing

Supposedly OG Doom

>trying to play

If it doesn't work in Wine, I dual-boot with Windows 7 so compatibility isn't a big issue.

>I seriously hope you fags aren't using Poetterware

I've used Void, Slackware, Gentoo, and some other distros in the past but never for very. Right now I'm using plain old Ubuntu because I hate myself.

>>13553887

I think wine devs will never support xinput. Look up dumbxinputemu. I also used antimicro(the only thing that wasn't outright mapped was the circle pad) which might be needed if your inputs in the game are messed up though, I don't know if using antimicro actually changes how wine detects the gamepad or not

But sorry no, I don't use WINE. If I have to use WINE might as well run a separate wangblows machine. How is Artix so far in everything else? Speed, stability etc.

>>13552254

>What are you playing, trying to play, or given up on getting to work on your Linux distribution of choice?

Divinity: Original Sin 2. I couldn't get it working on Wine, and I don't have the hardware for PCI passthrough so every time I want to play that game, I boot Windows.

GPL is totally ideological without consideration for reality

>>13554300

As if closing the source has any meaning whatsoever. For both the GPL and BSD, as well as others, you can take the project, put it in your product, sell it, and contribute nothing back (monetary or code). With either license you put yourself at risk of being "cucked" by working for free. If you want control, you need a proprietary license, end of story. I really don't know what fucking world it makes sense to brand 1 license as a "cuck" license while actually supporting a license that offers no additional protection in this regard. I swear half of the people promoting the GPL don't even understand it.

>>13554148

Lies, lies, lies, and more damn lies. This is the fucking BSD license: >>13554042

Shut your god damn Commie Jew GPL shilling baby dick blood sucking faggot mouths.

YOU HAVE TO GO BACK

>>13554551

I thought it was obvious that I'm not pro-GPL. Despite my posts I'm not anti-OSS either, I'm only trying to make the point that proprietary licenses are your only option if you think giving away your work for free is undesirable to you. For me personally, it's not. If I had to waste my own time implementing something because nobody else did or nobody else did a good enough job, then I see no reason not to release it, I already wrote it for free, for nobody, and got what I needed out of it, there's no reason anyone else should have to do the same, I paid the time price either way.

>>13554641

This is why I prefer the more liberal licenses, I'm not a damn lawyer.

BSD, MIT, ISC, they're simple.

>>13554594

>/v/ Manjaro is the best middle-ground GNU/Linux distribution.

I agree. Manjaro is alright. I can't deal with the Archtism but manjaro is okay.

Artix is pretty damn stable, at least as stable as Manjaro OpenRC. I have been using it in my desktop at home and my Chromebook while on the move, for almost as long as installation ISOs have been out. No big crashes or shit I had to fix urgently.

>>13555308

>Artix is pretty damn stable, at least as stable as Manjaro OpenRC. I have been using it in my desktop at home and my Chromebook while on the move, for almost as long as installation ISOs have been out. No big crashes or shit I had to fix urgently.

Good to hear, and interesting about the chromebook part.

>>13555350

Only certain Chromebooks can have Chrome OS deleted and Linux natively installed. Here's the list. https://mrchromebox.tech/#devices

>>13555393

I really wish more manufacturers would crank out a chromebook clone that can accept loonix either out of the box or easier to install loonix on. Though I heard some newer models are starting to become easier to do the latter.

>>13555393

Could someone just take the HHD out, and reformat it?

hmmm….

Nope never mind, at best you'd could do a live boot on a hardrive if you can't mess with the Bios. That or you would have to have an install of linux pre-installed and set up for your hardware.

>>13554641

I use MIT, which is basically identical to BSD, but requires one less place in the license where you have to write your name.

>>13555384

>ALSA just barely werks on my PC and it makes my life miserable

Thats kind of the answer. Doesn't matter how bad pulse is, what are you gonna do? Use OSS?

Trying to set up stupid mobile hybrid drivers on linux. Just fucking end my life right now.

>>13555384

PulseAudio is almost 100% unnessary bloat unless you want to do per-application volumes on the fly, run Firefox or use OBS without custom dmix configuration.

could one of you hackermen port PCSX2's lilypad to linux?

>>13556877 (noice)

For basic distros I would recommend Xubuntu, Manjaro, and Lubuntu once they replace LXDE with LXQt

Even Solus and Deepin are getting quite decent

>linux """gaymen""" thread filled with tech support and license/distro arguments

pottery

>>13556877

All the popular distros are competent enough to be good, it all depends on what you're looking for.

>Ubuntu

Mainline Ubuntu is going through a UI change. You'll probably want to wait for them to do that so you can get used to it better. It's variants use different UIs, so you get the massive software library and compatibility without the UI change. If you don't care for gimmicks, try Xubuntu. If you want a flashy desktop stuffed with features at the cost of a few rough edges, try Kubuntu.

>OpenSUSE

These guys focus on security and stability. OpenSUSE is a great distro if you like to tinker with permissions. Some things that happen automatically in other distros require you to set permissions in OpenSUSE. If you're security minded, it's great. If you want everything to work by default, don't bother.

>Fedora

Fedora is experimental. It's stable enough for daily use and gets updates very quickly, but things can go wrong. If you want the latest Linux has to offer it's great. Some people don't like their new changes, such as implementing GNOME3 before it was ready, and using systemd. Those shouldn't worry you if you just want a working desktop, but if you care for those things stay away.

>Debian

Debian is a massive community. The sheer number of devs and volunteers give it stability, compatibility and support. It's the base for lots of distros, including Ubuntu. It's rock solid but the repos tend to have older versions of software. If you're the sort of guy who sticks to XP because you want your system to work and don't care about later additions, Debian would be that equivalent.

>Meme tier distros

Arch, Gentoo, Funtoo and other build-your-own-os distros go here. They aren't bad, but you aren't going to be given a working desktop. If you know what you want, and know how to get it, they can give you that without the bloat of other distros. If you just want to do something practical without setup, don't bother.

>Slackware

It's the closest Linux distro to old school UNIX. They give you a solid base, and a way to configure everything, and you do everything yourself. Slackware makes a great base for other distros, because it's package management is very simple in comparison.

In short:

Just werks -> Ubuntu or Fedora

Stable and secure, some assembly required -> Debian or OpenSUSE

I want Linux on a USB stick -> Puppy Slacko, MX or Knoppix

>>13552254

Linux games seriously need more pirates.

>linux """gaymen""" thread filled with tech support

That's mostly WINE related or other voodoo type things. Steam on linux and native games runs fine 99.99% unless you have some very niche hardware setup.

>and license/distro arguments

Unlike windows where every user just loved and all embraced W10, of course. :^)

>>13557002

He's right though. At least keep your proprietary shit segregated from your pure system if you intend to run it at all. About all I run on mine is FOSS games or close enough (Freespace 2 for example) or emulated games. Wine does not count because it's not sufficiently isolated from the main system.

>>13552600

>Resident Evil 0 on dolphin

Did you try the PC port?

>>13554036

Use gzDoom, it has more features and it's foss

>>13555433

Some of then don't have a removable ssd, it's built in to the board. Mine has a removable msata drive, but I can't remove the ram

>>13557052

If you're running proprietary code on your clean system, especially games, that's no more trustworthy. My "dirty sluts" are a Windows 7 system that runs offline 99.9% of the time, and jailbroken game systems. The thing I do everything else on is a Libreboot X200 Tablet.

>>13557093

If I'm at the point of running proprietary games which can be equally nasty in some respects, I hardly care what they're running on top of. But I do care if it's the system I use day-to-day. If you want to run them on top of Wine, whatever.

>>13557129

>what like devuno?

Or Steam, or even the games themselves, I wouldn't trust most multiplayer games to be securely coded for sure.

>are all windows based games so nasty?

Do you know? That's a tenet of open source. Trust is lessened further in any games that would try to addd Denuvo, even if they're been cracked.

>what is with this all or nothing mentality?

That applies to my main system.

>>13557145

That's why you can add a comment to reports numbnuts.

>>13557161

Whatever, it's Mark's problem now. If Codemonkey's going to leave the site a broken mess and keep adding esoteric features instead, he could at least add something more useful. All the scaffolding is there, since as it stands, selecting posts is only a thing for screencaps.

<Everything else

Even Stallman said that it's preferable to run games on GNU/Linux via WINE than running them on Windows. And while you're not wrong able the games themselves (or Steam, or any other gaming infrastructure platform) being points of failure, at least playing them on GNU/Linux reduces the points of failure. If I get pwned on GNU/Linux, I can at least isolate those games to see if they're the culprits, and if they are, with shit like firejail and friends, it's a lot easier to isolate them. If I get pwned on Windows, it's a huge shitchute what exactly got my ass kicked unless someone kicks up this huge stink about it, logo and brand-name and everything. Not that it hurts anyone to run a "clean"er system for everyday shit and a "dirty"er system for running games, especially if you're going to pirate, but the point still stands, especially when the big autist himself advocates for it.

So anyway, random trick with DOSBox is that you can route General MIDI to an ALSA port.

>mpu401=intelligent

>mididevice=alsa

>midiconfig=128:0

Something like qsynth can be running on that to provide better sound. Generally I just use OPL2 since it's more true to most systems back in the day but it's nice to have the option of something else.

>>13557192

Running on Wine is better than running on Windows to be sure, but running on Windows on a separate system from your main one is better than that. Stallman can disagree with that all he wants, he's plenty disagreeable these days to me. If I was letting my Windows system connect to the Internet I might consider running Linux and Wine instead, but it'd still be on its own system.

My *only* problem with PCIe passthrough of the GPU is that you can't do it with consumer grade GPUs. Eg, I can't do PCIe passthrough with my GTX 1060s because either the kernel or QEMU/VMware/etc. basically tell me to fuck off and buy some Quadros.

>>13557342

I am doing it with my 980 right now. You just add some stuff to the machine to trick the card into working. People have been getting past Error 43 for awhile so I don't know what rock you are under.

>>13557373

Nigger, what the fuck are you talking about? You add something to the config file so the card doesn't realize it's running in a VM. That's it.

>>13557354

I tried changing that XML and at least under QEMU + KVM I still get Error 43 on the 1060s. I don't think that's the softmod method.

Cool thanks! Here's where I'm at now: with the monitor plugged into the onboard HDMI I get no video (it is enabled in BIOS).

Gonna try getting the libvirt.conf setup again. Then look into possibly adding a modprobe blacklist entry or something to try to get the onboard GPU as the "main" one for Slack. Will "NVIDIA Corporation" work for the vendor_id?

>You can just copy and paste whatever is in the hyper v that is listed in that arch wiki post from earlier. Worse case try the other two options given below.

Uhm… is it supposed to be the vendor_id of the actual device installed or is it supposed to be literally the word 'whatever' like they show?

><vendor_id state='on' value='whatever'/>

>>13557548

No you literally just go into your virtual machine file and under the hyper v section just copy and paste <vendor_id state='on' value='whatever'/>

Is that clone stable enough? And am I able to play in LAN with other people that have the original game?

>>13557558

Ok the 'whatever' part threw me off. Also my libvirt.conf didn't have a <hyperv> block so I added that too. I'm not expecting a blue screen or kernel panic when I start QEMU since Slack is currently using the 960. That part is bugging me.

if you can still use the GPU's on Linux then you didn't pass them through right. If they were passed through you would only be able to use your integrated GPU or whatever card isn't passed through.

>>13557734

Yeah I get that… I'm actually at work messing around with this using a 960. BIOS is set to initialize the on-board GPU but seems to be ignoring that option when I seat the 960. I do not see any jumpers on the motherboard that appear to be an override for that.

I'm about to pop in a piece of shit GTX 210 next to the 960 to see if that initializes at boot.

>>13557862

What motherboard are you using? Also do you have VT-D enabled?

>>13557871

Asus Z170-AR, and yes VT-D is setup. I built two of these with i5 6600Ks OC'd to 4.5GHz. I'm wondering if this a bug in the BIOS… I've now got BIOS set back to PCIE instead of IGFX (no clue what PEG does) and nothing displays out the GTX 210, however Slackware sees it just fine with lspci…

>>13557903

I have gotten Ubuntu, Fedora, Debian Stretch, and a few other distros to passthrough but Slackware has not been one of them. What are your Grub settings, did you add the iommu stuff etc?

>>13557404

Read the fuckin manual instead of expecting to get spoonfed on someone's free time, nigger.

Has anyone by any chance managed to run Brigador on Linux on a 4th generation Intel iGPU, or specifically an X200? I keep getting GPU hangs when the game tries to display any 3D models and nothing I try fixes it.

>>13557277

So now the argument has changed to GOOD games because Linux has at least 3000 games on Steam alone now? Get the fuck out. Free OS's will prevail and there's nothing you proprietarycucks can do about it besides bitch and moan and shitpost like the pathetic faggots you are.

>>13557919

Default for Slack is LILO not GRUB, but I don't think that's it… At least for now at work the issue seems to be hardware related, and this might indeed be the same problem I'm having at home. For whatever reason, non-same GPUs are ignored. I have no idea what is determining this, and I'm considering bringing this 960 home to see if the 1060s override it as well.

Anyway, the help/suggestions were appreciated!

>>13557832

>>13557831

I'm trying to make this work following these posts, but I'm getting difficulties somewhere around here.

>You type in vfio-pci and take those numbers (Example:10de:13c0 and 10de:0fbb) and put them like this

I put my GPU id into grub config, save/update it, reboot, and amdgpu simply refuses to yield itself over to vfio drivers. The audio device/controller is good, but VGA just won't switch to vfio in kernel. Help me please I'm dumb and new.

>>13553847

You can set the Windows version using winecfg. But since ~wine 1.6 days I had problems running the game too so you might just try to run the original x68k version in MAME instead.

Here's an archive with the x68k BIOS and the last x68k revision of the game: https://my.mixtape.moe/pumwmt.tar

It should run with any of the last few MAME versions (this is from the 0.188 romset).

>>13560498

>you might just try to run the original x68k version in MAME instead

I actually prefer the Windows version. I like the fact that it runs at a higher frame rate than the X86000 version; the faster speed is more thrilling.

>>13560535

All that setting even does is change the Windows version string. It's pretty worthless.

That's weird. Did you play on a modded server before? My config and some other things gets screwed up often after playing on those.

All the games I wnat to play are ethier comming out for linux or are wine compatible. Most games are pale imitations with fancier graphics and vapid weak storytelling. there is very little I can see as wanting to play in the future on a "windows" machine. Hell I got sim city 4 neverwinter nights 1 and 2 and all the emulation i could ever want or desire. Everything works with minimal configuration. The most hell I ever went through was one game where i forgot to enable cmst like a fool. There was a learning curve but once i got passed that There is very little configuration i have to do for any vidya. Usally its just scripts that you run do some minor configuration and off you go. Small price to pay for not being part of a botnet.

I want to play witcher 3 and im considering vming win 7 just do it. Literally the only game i would actully consider vming for.

the most fun I have had lately with a game has been xcom and that shit is in linux natively. My only bug in the game is rarely like 1/60 missions during the start of tactical it crashes. and on every start i have to go fullscreen/windowed fullscreen because the game in fullscreen windowed has a minor graphical issue. Minor issues. but a fully functional game. Im willing to pay for games that release on linux and xcom is so delightful. Im like Meh. I have restarted it once already cause i did crappy with my buildings. Didnt really care cause i love the game so much xD.I doubt i would have this much fun with a windows only game at this point.

>>13561038

here is a pastebin of the guide with changes to make it easier.

https://pastebin.com/rUtwBQSj

>>13557831

Hey Slackanon from the other day. I reset the BIOS on this spare machine, set the graphics to PCIE (still unsure what PEG does). I took the 960 out and got my GUI back up using the 210.

Next I shut it down, and reseated the 960. Boot it back up, and no video output from the 210 again. I swear it seems like something in the 960 (and my 1060s at home) is telling the BIOS to fuck off about the other video cards. Of course switching the HDMI from 210 to the 960 video works fine, and again both the 210 and 960 show up in lspci.

What is causing all the other video cards to bend over and take a dick from the most powerful one in the machine?

>>13562258

i'd love for aaa to be on linux just to have the option, even though i won't ever play any of them.

Would it be possible to run two cards in SLI for a 4k monitor, but then disable SLI to run a single card for a 1920x1080 monitor? This is for running a mix of older and newer games. It feels wasteful to play games from 2004 with a 4k monitor and dual GTX 1080s.

>>13562258

You will install windows 10. You will comply. Resistance is futile.

>>13566392

Does 1080p look like shit on 4k like 480p does upscaled to 1080p?

>>13566929

To my knowledge some monitors support 1:4 scaling depending on what "4k" you have it should be exactly 4 times larger then 1080p and because of that scale pretty good

Hipster microkernel > BSD > Finnish-systemd Unix

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called “Linux”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project. There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use.

Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called “Linux” distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

>>13604491

>How's Artix, anon? What made you use it instead of more mainstream options?

Not that anon but I find artix to be in a good spot since it works on getting alternative init systems out there without having to juggle around with upstream stuff like manjaro had to while still remaining close to arch so that many of the resources still apply to it.

Haven't had a single problem so far that I could pin on artix specifically other than the migration guide being fucked up at the moment.

Alright so what games can I run on a sempron 2600+ (k8 era 1.6ghz single core 32 bit amd cpu) that can only do software raster?

>>13617017

Performance isn't affected as much as by your distro, if you're getting lag while not doing anything, that's the DE's fault, not the distro itself. i3 and any other tiling wm are super light weight, but are a bit tricky to use if you aren't used to them. lxde is great if you're used to guis, so long as you stay away from gnome and other de's with high requirements, you should be fine.

war thunder also has a linux native client that works well if you feel like grinding the exact same 3 missions over and over again for months until you quit out of boredom.

>>13617017

Looks like a case for a pick-and-choose style distro that doesn't come with much running by default though those can be a bitch for anyone new.

Using a light weight DE should make the biggest difference though.

>So I started a NES emulator and the sempron 2600+ overheated and died. No apparent damage, I'll clean the heatsink and install new thermal paste.

Something does not sound right with that. Browsing some quick info the sempron 2600+ is a mobile AMD cpu released on July 28, 2004. If that is your CPU. Running a NES emulator should be a doable task for a 2004 era machine\laptop. I had a windows98 era and pentium4 desktop running SNES and Genesis emulator, so something definitely sounds it went wonky.

Has anyone found a way to replace the microcode with an open source alternative at all?

>>13617657

wait, are you running a 64 bit OS?

>>13617944

Yes, but the game is 32 bit.

>>13617947

are you even running multilib?

>>13617947

>Yes, but the game is 32 bit.

sorry I didn't respond sooner before, been doing laundry cooking and eating said cooking while watching talespin and waiting on laundry

>>13617657

>"/home/airbouy/.etwolf/etmain/ui.mp.i386.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"

this specificly indicates to me that you lack ui.mp for i386, or something along those lines

I ran into similar problems with the gog version of Hotline Miami for linux

you need to run the command in the terminal

apt search ui.mp

apt search ui

the i386 indicates its the 32bit version and you ignore the so because thats irrelevant to the search

here are some notes from when I had to install hotline, NOT edited for your ease of use

#!/bin/bash
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386;
sudo apt update;
#libgl1-mesa allows for execution of 32 bit
sudo apt install -y libgl1:i386 libgl1-mesa-dri:i386 libtxc-dxtn0:i386 libxrandr2:i386 libxi6:i386 libvorbis0a:i386 libvorbisfile3:i386 libcggl:i386 libasound2-plugins:i386;
#sudo apt install -y libasound2:i386;
#sudo apt install -y libasound-dev:i386;

that's all the shit I had to install on mint 18.2, you're probably going to have to feel out what libraries you need by openign a terminal, starting the game, and seeign what is missing when it doesn't ruin

jsut for fun Good Life Linux

#!/bin/bash
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386;
sudo apt-get update;
#sudo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-swx11:i386;
#libgl1-mesa allows for execution of 32 bit
sudo apt-get install libglu1-mesa:i386;
sudo apt-get install libxrandr2:i386;
sudo apt-get install libXi6:i386;
sudo apt-get install libfontconfig1:i386;
sudo apt-get install libopenal1:i386;
sudo apt-get install libvorbisfile3:i386;
sudo apt-get install libcggl:i386;
#sudo apt-get install libx11-xcb1:i386;


#libglu1-mesa:i386

#libglu1:i386
#libglu1:i386

>>13617947

>>13617995

also notice that :i386 MUST be added on the end of 32 bit libraries

>>13617994

>are you even running multilib?

can you elaborate on that man, I can get just about anything running but I usually have to grasp in the dark until I get it

>>13617994

Yeah

>>13617995

Anon, you're misunderstanding, hotline is a completely different problem, and that one is 64 bit but doesn't run at all; et is the 32 bit program that runs but has no audio.

>>13618065

hotline is 32 bit and I have to install libs to get audio after video libs work

>>13618065

and to illustrate here is that line from mint

sudo apt install -y libgl1:i386 libgl1-mesa-dri:i386 libtxc-dxtn0:i386 libxrandr2:i386 libxi6:i386 libvorbis0a:i386 libvorbisfile3:i386 libcggl:i386 libasound2-plugins:i386;

"libgl1:i386 libgl1-mesa-dri:i386 libtxc-dxtn0:i386 libxrandr2:i386 libxi6:i386" are video libraries, maybe not mesa, and "libvorbis0a:i386 libvorbisfile3:i386 libcggl:i386 libasound2-plugins:i386" are audio libraries

>best distro

What a shame.

I've been trying to install openxcom on Fedora 26 from the repo linked on project's site, but dnf says it can't find the package. Repo itself seems to work fine. What could be the problem?

>>13618430

detail the steps you take in installing openxcom from searching for the site

>>13618436

I found this repo: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/evgenyz/openxcom/

Used "quick enable command" from sidebar (dnf copr enable evgenyz/openxcom), checked if .repo file was in yum.repos.d (it was), then just ran dnf install openxcom.

>>13618312

>go and see what the arduous and manual process is in gentoo's wine ebuild

>it's just a bunch of extra checks for broken old compilers and the build process is identical for both 32/64 otherwise

>>13618065

32bit libs my man. You're probably trying to run a game that uses mp3 or ogg, this means you gotta install the 32-bit version of those libs.

>>13618680

Well, in case of 32-bit programs. You get the drill.

>>13586334

pls respond

>>13586334

Brigador devs seem to be pretty cool. You might want to try and contact them on Steam discussions, they are pretty active and helpful there.

In the meantime, try looking at some vehicle or weapon entries in Acquisitions, I feel like your problem might come from rendering the actual animated in-game sprites.

>>13618001

I only know how to get it working in Slackware 14.2 using Alien Bob's packages found here:

http://www.slackware.com/~alien/multilib/

Maybe you can install .txz packages, but even if not you can seethe latest version libraries you need to install to get 32bit compatibility aka multilib,

Was considering trying to get something running on my Memepad T420 with Debian. Anyone have any suggestions?

Also, does anyone know if Bully might work with WINE or whatever? I know it's gonna be glitchy as hell because it's a shit port, but does it run okay?

>>13618786

It also happens in Acquisitions, any time the game attempts to display a 3D model the GPU hangs. It also happens if I use the dev console to directly load a level without having to go through a loadout menu. I've told the devs about the issue and gave them a a dump file the game made when it crashed the same way in Wine. But they've not gotten back to me yet and it's possibly not a problem with the game anyway but DRI or Mesa on Linux. I also submitted a report to freedesktop.org but considering the issue is about a game and on old ass hardware it's obviously very low priority.

I was hoping someone else with an X200 or other 4th gen Intel iGPU laptop could try running the game to see if they get the same problem so I can confirm it's hardware or DRI/MESA related.

>>13618699

>>13586334

>>13620121

i have an x200.

>>13620154

Well if you could grab the game from the link here: >>13586334 and try running it that would be peachy.

>>13620169

It crashes at the same moment you described.

>>13620194

Alright, thanks.

>>13619805

Just check out the wineDB, according to that you have a 50/50 chance of it sucking or being pretty good depending on wherever you have the steam version or one good CD build

>>13619449

ah yeah thanks

>>13618490

is your OS 64bit?

>>13618490

scratch the 64 bit question, I'm assuming you installed the 64 bit version if you are running it

>>13618430

>You will require graphics/music data from the original game (DOS, Windows, GOG and Steam versions are supported). Installation instructions.

do you have that and did you follow the instructions

How are the Nvidia drivers on Linux?

>>13620540

they're ok

>>13620384

>>13620408

Yeah, it's 64 bit.

>>13620428

Before I throw the resource files into the mix I have to actually install the engine, which is what I'm having trouble with. But yeah, I've got the resources.

>>13599886

Butthurt BSDrone that Stallman's license is more popular than his cucked one.

>>13620540

shit from what I hear, but functional shit

>>13620540

works on my machine.png

so I've just found out nearly all Total War games ended up being ported to linux

anyone around can attest if they play well? if so, with which drivers too?

plus bonus anon points if we can find some pirated native releases

>>13635002

Huh? I've been playing Civ5 the last couple of days, because Steam didn't have linux version of Shogun 2…

>>13621842

honestly man I'm not sure what to tell you, I would have to install it and run through the process to check every little thing you need to do and I'm too busy for that this weekend

>>13635002

>plus bonus anon points if we can find some pirated native releases

try the share thread

>>13620540

this >>13633981

>>13636134

well did you check it now? at least they have that steam os icon

Fucking hell fuck. Mount and blade is testing my nerves. If I alt tab, the game might freeze and between scene changes it might freeze the whole system.

>>13644227

What DE are you using?

>>13645429

Xfce

Why does Darkest Hour freeze and why does it take forever to load the game? Did I miss something from the App database? Wine seems more trabble than worth.

>>13653525

And what's a good system dick free distro thats as easy as Ubantu? Don't really care to tinker with the ins and outs of linux, I just want a web browsing distro.

>>13653866

Devuan is good from what I hear.

>>13654957

I remember I wanted to install cinnamon but it would fail every single time and when I just installed the default DE, I couldn't do anything, I was the administrator and I had no privileges I couldn't install shit. Tried to give permission rights but it was a total fail, this was a long time ago, maybe it's fixed now.

>>13655097

The torrent's 16 gb, why can't I just download the iso?

>>13653866

I hear Devuan is pretty easy going, artix as well as void also offer premade images that might fit what you want though make no mistake the latter two focus on DIY a lot. I suggest you just grab all the images you find interesting and fire them up in virtualbox.

>>13653866

>And what's a good system dick free distro thats as easy as Ubantu

>>13654957

I got the Devuan distro Good Life Linux running nice a couple weeks ago, got it running hotline miami and Stardew Valley after installing the 32 Bit libraries.

You have to hit the default check box on the Ethernet adapter to make it on every time you boot and it comes bare bones so you have to install Firefox or Iceweasel with the following command

sudo apt-get update -y && sudo apt-get install iceweasel
