i have been useing linux for a few weeks now and i need some help<br>with Vavoom ..<br>so i have installed it .. i think .. i have unziped v115_2_src.zip<br>then i ran sh ./fixunix.sh in root<br>then ... i dont know what i need to do .. i tryed following the vavoom.txt<br>but the other commands didnt work they gave my errors<br>sry for the all newbie questions but i am a newbie at linux<br>i have allso download the shareware wads of doom, heretic and hexen<br>i have Linux Mandrake 10<br>hope someone will help me  :-/

I need to know what error messages did you get.

when entering running this cmd<br> su -c "make INSTALL=install install"<br>it gives me this output<br><br> [root@localhost temp]# su -c "make INSTALL=install install"<br>install -g root -o root -m 0777 -d /usr/local/games/Vavoom /usr/local/games/Vavoom/basev /usr/local/games/Vavoom/basev/doom /usr/local/games/Vavoom/basev/doom1 /usr/local/games/Vavoom/basev/doom2 /usr/local/games/Vavoom/basev/tnt /usr/local/games/Vavoom/basev/plutonia /usr/local/games/Vavoom/basev/heretic /usr/local/games/Vavoom/basev/hexen /usr/local/games/Vavoom/basev/strife<br>install -g root -o root -m 0755 basev/default.cfg basev/startup.vs basev/games.txt /usr/local/games/Vavoom/basev<br>install -g root -o root -m 0755 basev/doom/wad0.wad /usr/local/games/Vavoom/basev/doom<br>install: kan ikke udf

First you must compile evrything. For this you must use command "make".  File basev/doom/wad0.wad is created during build process.

Vavoom requires Allegro library. Get it from [url:2am90lwc]http://alleg.sourceforge.net, compile and install it. If you have it installed and it still doesn't work, it may be because it by default installs to /usr/local so you must add directory /usr/local/include to environment variables C_INCLUDE_PATH and CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH, /usr/local/lib to LIBRARY_PATH, /usr/local/bin to PATH, /usr/local/info to INFOPATH and /usr/local/man to MANPATH. Lok for definition of them in ~/.bash_profile, ~/.bashrc, /etc/profile, /etc/.bash_profile files. Also add /usr/local/lib to /etc/ld.so.conf file and run ldconfig.

im not quite sure what im supposed to do<br>what fils in what dir do i need to change<br>allegro is in /usr/local/allegro<br>i compiled it there<br>and i tryed to add /usr/local/lib to /etc/ld.so.conf<br>but i dont know how to save a doc in console

In console you can edit documents with vi or emacs. You will have to read their docs to see how to use them. If you are running X-Windows, there should be some text editors available with easy to use interface.<br><br>Anyways, if editing config files is too much trouble for you, the simplest thing to do is to install Allegro in /usr instead of /usr/local. To do this rebuild Allegro by configuring it to install into /usr, i.e.:<br>./configure --prefix=/usr<br>make<br>su -c "make install"<br>

ok ill try that thx

damn it well i installed allegro as you said and i think it looked right<br>then while running: make in console<br><br>[mxed@localhost temp]$ make<br>gcc -c -W -Wall -march=pentiumpro -ffast-math -O3 -fomit-frame-pointer -o obj/gl_x.o source/gl_x.cpp<br>In file included from source/gl_x.cpp:33:<br>/usr/include/xalleg.h:37:22: X11/Xlib.h: No such file or directory<br>/usr/include/xalleg.h:38:23: X11/Xutil.h: No such file or directory<br>/usr/include/xalleg.h:39:28: X11/cursorfont.h: No such file or directory<br>/usr/include/xalleg.h:40:24: X11/keysym.h: No such file or directory<br>In file included from source/gl_x.cpp:33:<br>/usr/include/xalleg.h:60: error: syntax error before `*' token<br>/usr/include/xalleg.h:63: error: 'Window' is used as a type, but is not defined as a type.<br>/usr/include/xalleg.h:64: error: 'GC' is used as a type, but is not defined as a type.<br>/usr/include/xalleg.h:65: error: syntax error before `*' token<br>/usr/include/xalleg.h:66: error: 'Colormap' is used as a type, but is not defined as a type.<br>/usr/include/xalleg.h:67: error: syntax error before `*' token<br>/usr/include/xalleg.h:68: error: 'Cursor' is used as a type, but is not defined as a type.<br>In file included from source/gl_x.cpp:35:<br>source/gl_local.h:34:19: GL/gl.h: No such file or directory<br>In file included from source/gl_x.cpp:35:<br>source/gl_local.h:66: error: `GLenum' was not declared in this scope<br>source/gl_local.h:66: error: `GLfloat' was not declared in this scope<br>source/gl_local.h:66: error: `GLfloat' was not declared in this scope<br>source/gl_local.h:66: error: typedef `MultiTexCoord2f_t' is initialized (use __typeof__ instead)<br>source/gl_local.h:67: error: `GLenum' was not declared in this scope<br>source/gl_local.h:67: error: typedef `SelectTexture_t' is initialized (use __typeof__ instead)<br>source/gl_local.h:77: error: `GLenum' was not declared in this scope<br>source/gl_local.h:77: error: `GLfloat' was not declared in this scope<br>source/gl_local.h:77: error: typedef `PointParameterf_t' is initialized (use __typeof__ instead)<br>source/gl_local.h:78: error: `GLenum' was not declared in this scope<br>source/gl_local.h:78: error: syntax error before `*' token<br>source/gl_local.h:170: error: 'GLint' is used as a type, but is not defined as a type.<br>

It means that you don't have OpenGL installed so you must disable it. To do this edit Makefile and uncomment corresponding line or build Vavoom with command:<br>make NOGL=1<br>
