Hello
I also had problem with compiling on Ubuntu 9.10
Using

Code: Select all

./make all
instead of

Code: Select all

./make all-am
solved the my compilation problem.

I encountered one problem when run the Vegastrike. The sound is often interrupted
and it finally exits or freezes with following message on the console.

Code: Select all

problem in t_src_classAL lib: ALc.c:1368: exit(): closing 1 Device
AL lib: ALc.c:1345: alcCloseDevice(): destroying 1 Context
AL lib: alSource.c:2362: alcDestroyContext(): deleting 24 Source(s)
(When it It freezes, it often ends with screen showing in the bottom loading Logos/dgnPri.texture)

regards,
-mojmir

I had no problems compiling it or even running it. I followed the instructions from the Ubuntu page on the wiki, worked fine. I did have some issues with PulseAudio, but I removed it and that seemed to help. It was causing frequent hangs/freezes, so I run VS in a window instead of full screen. Worked good on GNOME after I installed the compiz-switch. I switched my desktop over to Xfce4 and use the windows manager with it. Things run a lot smoother now. I do have the occasional hang or lose sound sometimes, but that is minor.

About the compiling thing: I added from synaptic

libsdl1.2-dev
libboost-python1.40.0
libboost-python1.40-dev

and it compiled well. Apparently.

Well, everytime I try to play I can see the main screen, but if I click on "Main Campaign" the game is slow as hell in the hangar screen and if I try to launch the vessel I can't see anything of the game (only a white background with some stats).

Here is my hardware

I updated my Intel GMA Drivers from here

but it's all been a waste of time.

Oh yeah, I'm under Ubuntu KK amd64.

Did you get the latest svn update?

r12742 or greater should be your revision number.

I believe that revision has the white bug fixed.

See my other thread http://vegastrike.sourceforge.net/forum ... =2&t=15279 and chuck's reply about the compiler options you need to compile with cube_map. Otherwise backgrounds will be missing.
