Linux installer

[TinMan]

It ran and installed fine, the installer just wasn't graphical, it probably would have been if I ran it win linux32, it installed fine though, so no biggie.

QuDos: Aren't there some kind of config files you have to make to create the installer?  How do you add the checkboxes and whatnot?  I haven't actually tried it, but I assumed there was some kind of scripting language or something for creating the installer.

[QuDos]

Yes, it's managed by setup.xml (default), note that in the installer there are some others xml files.

You can exec the run file from promtp with the option "--keep"  and explore the folders, setup.data and setup.sh are the important.

Take a look to the cvs loki_setup tree, specially Setup.xml

The rest, checkboxes, ... is done by setup

Why does the installer say build017 binaries?
Aren't we still on build016?

[jitspoe]

The Linux installer is like build 16 ½.

[Zorchenhimer]

16½? what is different between the win build and linux?

[jitspoe]

It's almost all Linux-specific stuff, like fixing problems with sound and mouse input.  I don't remember what features from build 17 made it in.  It doesn't have login support, though.

darn! Doesn't work anyway. I installed it as root, then tried to run the game and what happened? nil.

[TinMan]

Try to run it from a terminal, then post the output here in code tags, k?
