[HELP ME] How to install Regnum Online on arch linux.... - Page 3

Znurre · 06-26-2009, 04:58 AM

Ok, so I have an idea.
Open a terminal and write this

Code:

cp /home/$USER/Desktop/RegnumOnlineInstall_32 /tmp/
cd /tmp
chmod +x ./RegnumOnlineInstall_32
./RegnumOnlineInstall_32

You should not even need to replace $USER with your username since it's an environment variable...

When you run the installer, it will, just like in Windows, ask you for an installation location.
Choose to install it to /tmp/regnum.

You care to explain why this comment is "mean"? I was merely commenting that my guess was correct.

You will not be able to properly uninstall RO since you have a noexec home directory... actually - you shouldnt have regnum installed so uninstalling wont be needed

I would do this to keep RO working ok

Code:

cd ~/
rm -rfd ./regnum
ln -s /tmp/regnum regnum

its ok to skip that step as its merely a convenience

Did you choose to install it to /tmp/regnum and you still can't launch the game?
In that case, open up a terminal and type this:

Code:

cd /tmp/regnum
./rolauncher

Post any output here.

Im sorry, to go any further would require admin access to this computer.
