no sound, no command...

Post by londubas »

Hello, I just downloaded the game via PlayDeb on my Ubuntu 12.10
I did

Code: Select all

wget -q -O - http://archive.getdeb.net/getdeb-archive.key | sudo apt-key add -
sudo sh -c 'echo "deb http://archive.getdeb.net/ubuntu quantal-getdeb games" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/getdeb.list'
then

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install vegastrike
Everything went well.

But when I tried it using the vegastrike commande I have this printed on my terminal

Code: Select all

This might explain why I have no sound, that the game is not in full screen and that I can't quit when I am in the game.
I have a French keyboard.
Sure using the dash does has the same result.

Thank you

It may be that one of the packages you have installed is not the right version.

We've had issues with the way deb packages work where sometimes they would require the wrong version.

Can you post the versions of all the dependencies mentioned here, adding libboost-python please?

I just fixed the problem of the screen resolution using "vssetup" and just understood how to quit it. Still no music. In the ~/.vegastrike every folder is empty.

Any one?

Thank you

See my post above.

A segfault means something's more broken than vssetup can fix.

Thank you for your answer.

So I just installed all
sudo apt-get install libpng12-0 libpng12-dev python-dev libexpat1-dev \
libjpeg62-dev freeglut3-dev libopenal-dev libgtk2.0-dev libogg-dev libvorbis-dev \
build-essential libgl1-mesa-dev automake autoconf libsdl1.2-dev

but I can't install libboost-python, ubuntu can't find it.
after that I removed vegastrike and installed it again. Still no sound

Thank

Here it says you should have some libboost-python available. Do an apt-cache search boost-python. I just need to see which one is installed by default on 12.10, so I can make the package link accordingly.

Which one of that is installed with libboost-python-dev? (ie: by default)

I saw this topic on the forum. Do you want me to try that? move the sounds from /usr/share/games/vegastrike/.vegastrike to ~/vegastrike ?

I am not sure to understand your question. But libboost-python-dev is not installed yet. Do you want me to install it?
if I want libboost-python-dev, I need to install gccxml libboost-python1.49-dev libboost1.49-dev

No, I just wanted to know its dependencies. So it's done with that.

I don't think you need to mess with the home folder, that was a packaging bug made for the Arch builds and I think I haven't made it (I package for debian based distros).

In any case, first order of business is fixing the segfault.

The package is still building, not sure how long it will take for playdeb to pick the changes up.

PS: about the french keyboard... I expect trouble. If you do, you might want to switch to an US layout while playing.

I just finished compiling and the sound is Ok, the command are fine, I am installing Optional High Quality Texture Files.
Thank you for your help anyway.

Maybe we should give the link to the wiki install page on the website, don't you think?

Thank again

I know then... it's the openal-dev that's off.

That's harder to fix :(
