Linux Port
 

Will there be a Linux Port available?

I have compiled 0.2.0 successfully, but there are some quirks with the Login Server, but maybe its just missing the EQ Data Files :) Where do i have to put them on my box?

How did you get it to compile?

Attempted on RedHat 7.2, below is the process:

It dies after both of these makes. Am I missing something? Unzip the emu, and then do the above?

Happens for everyone at the moment :(

Raptor made it compile by hacking the files himself, fiddling with them until it would work, but when I was retracing his steps I couldn't make it work.

<-- Slackware 8.0, I believe Raptor is using Suse 7.2

Ugh :( Perhaps he could send you the files he editted to make it work?

Tried on FreeBSD 4.4 and got different errors:

Stop in /usr/home/steve/emu/world.

Maybe we should wait for the next version, I heard Quagmire saying in the IRC, that he compiled 0.2.1 (cvs) successfully ;)

In the meantime, I'll kick around that &

If you could share that source would be great.. I'm anxious to get it working on Linux, but unfortunately I don't have much coding knowledge and can't do it on my own :(
