libemusharemem.so error hmmmm.

Did you get any errors when you were compiling the source? Warnings are ok, but errors will cause problems.

If you really want to run on Linux, I highly suggest following the debian linux wiki, as it is very detailed and got me up and working perfectly in a short amount of time. You will also still need some info from the Yet Another Linux Installation Guide, like the start up scripts and such, but other than that you should be able to get setup without a single problem in a fair amount of time.

There are a couple other things that need to be adjusted for certain hardware situations. One is only applicable if the server you will be using has more than 1GB of ram. I plan to write more details on the Debian Linux installation sometime soon. But you can already find most of the info I have found out by reading the threads I started in the Linux section. There are a few.

what i did to get rid of the libEMuShareMem.so error was to copy (or link) the file into the /lib directory

I don't believe I had any errors that I didn't fix. I' think I've followed too many guides, that may be my problem
Thank you guys for the help, I'll figure something out. Hah.
If anyone doesn't mind helping I'll give you the address to my server and let you shell in and take a look.

for anyone else who is having this problem with libEmuSharemem.so on debian/debian-like, put it in the /usr/lib/ folder.
as for the .conf files / eqtime.cfg you can get those on cvs here.. http://eqemulator.cvs.sourceforge.ne...s/?hideattic=0

hmm. Strangely it's crashing when I make a character. It's saving the name but not the data.

Maybe you need to start your server as root to make sure that your issues aren't being caused by a permission problem.
