Regnum Online Linux installer

[yizuman]

How do I use this installer? Need instructions please.

Thanks

I believe this should do it.

cd to the directory where you downloaded the bin file. Make it executable. and type ./nameofbinhere

That will start the installer. The rest is self explanitory. Good luck.

couldn't get it working.

i'm using ubuntu 8.04 64bit beta.

downloaded the 64bit installer. whenever i try to run it it does absolutely nothing, not even complain, it just returns immediately.

i installed the game with the 64bit launcher (rolauncher64.tar.bz2, from another post) and it worked fine.

i have no idea what the problem could be, i'm no linux expert.

Did you check if the file could be ran? I mean, the execution rights.

yes, that i did. i tried several ways to run it. it tried playing with the mallock check too.
./RegnumOnlineInstall_64 did nothing. sh RegnumOnlineInstall_64 either but it said something about a syntax error and a "(" don't remember exactly as i gave up using the linux client. windows version is much more stable with my computer, don't know why. just wanted to try for the 64bit as there is no such client for windows but i ended crashing all day long.

I've got that problem to... When i run "./RegnumOnlineInstall_64" nothing happens(no errors at all)... running "sh RegnumOnlineInstall_64" gives me: RegnumOnlineInstall_64: 1: Syntax error: "(" unexpected


My system is a 64bit singelcore AMD 2.0Ghz, 1gig Ram, Geforce 7600GS PCI-E(nvidia 169.12 drivers i think), Ubuntu 8.04 Beta 64bit...

MALLOC_CHECK_=0 ./RegnumOnlineInstall_64

This started the installer for me(Ubuntu 8.04 Beta 64bit). Game works, but with a bit of messed up grafics(prob. the nvidia drivers to blame)..

Edit:
Same Computer, but with Ubuntu 7.10 64bit, "./RegnumOnlineInstall_64", "sh RegnumOnlineInstall_64" and
"MALLOC_CHECK_=0 ./RegnumOnlineInstall_64" did not start the installer. No error messages other than the "syntax error"-ish mentioned in the other post.. Have to use old "rolauncher64.tar.bz2" file to install game, and it works ok..

The 32bit-Version works fine on Archlinux.

When will it be added to the Downloads-Page?

I'm running Ubuntu 8.04 32 bit. I downloaded the 32 bit install. changed my cwd to the desktop where i installed it. Used ch mod +x RegnumOnlineInstaller_32 . When i try and run ./RegnumInstaller_32 i get this error.

bash: ./RegnumOnlineInstall_32: Text file busy

I am pretty new to Linux. did i do something wrong?

Well I'm pretty old to linux, and I've never seen that message before

chmod should be one word (not ch mod)

EDIT: Just tried the installer for the first time, if you install it as root it should default to /usr/local/games not /usr/local, and it should install a wrapper script to /usr/local/bin that starts the launcher.
