Hello :)
How as you can see, I try to make some games work in Linux. But I try to make them work more easier for the end user.
Here : http://www.glbasic.com/forum/index.php?topic=6796.0 (http://www.glbasic.com/forum/index.php?topic=6796.0)
I try to show a way to find libs we need with more ease (for ex with Fedora dist), but I wonder several things about that :
There are two FAQ about it
the first here : http://www.glbasic.com/forum/index.php?topic=2525.0
and the second here : http://www.glbasic.com/forum/index.php?topic=3853.0
I try yesterday on a fresh install of ubuntu 11.04 and it seems that we just need to install SDL mixer and stdc++ and that's all.
But in other dist like fedora, we need more to make games work.
Are these two FAQ up to date ? or something change since ?
These libs are always required (libmikmod.so.2 libvorbisfile.so.3 libsmpeg-0.4.so.0 libvorbis.so.0) ?
I think that could be a little tricky for someone who want to test on linux a game. May be there is a way to put the lib in the same directory and make an Export in a bash file before run the game ?
I need some informations about linux export.
Thank you in advance, and one more time : sorry for my poor english :)
Most of the libraries are installed with SDL. The Linux FAQ isn't totally up-to-date as it's getting very hard to find a place to install the required C library - and unfortunately its not possible to use the latest ones...
I had a try with the latest ubuntu 11.04 and I update the topic of the FAQ ;) here we go.
But for Fedora it's more complicated. Have to test.
