Installation

[Taccs]

Hey, im usuing the newest copy of Ubuntu Feisty. I'm a complete beginner to linux and for some reason I seem to be the only person who can't even install the game, now it's probably a really silly reason but here is what I try to do, and what happens:

Download rolauncher.tar.gz from website, unpack and chmod +x the rolauncher file.

After that I ./rolauncher and everything goes fine, I accept the licensing agreement and then takes me to a page that says enter account name and password etc so I do that and hit entrar button and i get an error in the terminal saying Segmentation Error (core dumped) nothing else.

Also i'm behind a router but i can sudo apt packages fine :S im so lost

Try downloading the files again.

(And I didn't have to chmod the files)

It's not an internet thing, so we can discard any connection problem...

It is, in fact, one of the files the game uses... The problem here is to know which of them. Can you post the error_backtrace and error files on the live folder of the game (if there are any of them), please?

[Taccs]

that's the thing there are none, here is all it has in the live folder:

Don't you get to a screen where it has the following options? Salir, Opciones, Jugar?

[Taccs]

No, the first post states i don't even install the game, i just download the tar unpack it run ro launcher it tells me to accept a license agreement so i do that then enter password and username so i do that hit entrar and thats it crash segmentation error and nothing is installed

Doesn't that mean that there is no support for opengl??
What Graphic Card are you using and which drivers do you have installed?

I get the same (Segmentation fault) after the login dialog too, on my laptop with Fedora 7.

[dejan@mrak regnum]$ ./rolauncher

Since ATI did not yet released GNU/Linux drivers for kernel 2.6.21 i am forced to use Mesa3D - all other games that I play (Eternal Lands, Glest, Warzone2100, Globulation2, ...) work fine.

[wakim42]

Mesa3D dont support openGL so you have to use fglrx (ati proprietary driver) and yes the last one work for 2.6.21 (at least it works for me)
