Copying setup.txt to ~/.egoboo-2.x/ seems to fix the problem. Now I get the same issue as penguinflyer:
Code: Select all
tehpr0be@karmic:~$ egoboo-2.x
Initializing filesystem services...
Game directories are:
Binaries: /usr/games/
Data: /usr/share/games/egoboo-2.x/
User Data: /home/tehpr0be/.egoboo-2.x/
Config Files: /usr/etc/egoboo-2.x/
SDL WARN: Unable to set SDL video mode: Couldn't find matching GLX visual
SDL WARN: Unable to set SDL video mode: Couldn't find matching GLX visual
tehpr0be@karmic:~$
Any idea ?

Last time we had that error it was because SDL tried to start in 32-bit while Linux can only do 24.
// GLX doesn't differentiate between 24 and 32 bpp, asking for 32 bpp
// will cause SDL_SetVideoMode to fail with:
// "Unable to set video mode: Couldn't find matching GLX visual"

actually the last time I remember was we were setting the red/green/blue/alpha color bits thingy to 5 instead of 8.
(which, oddly enough, 5 is 16-bit+alpha, and 8 is 32-bit)

Soo... colour bit thingy... Is that a SDL setting?

It's a GL setting, but I forgot what they're called (anyway they should be #if defined out)

These are the values penguinflyer was talking about.
Code: Select all
GL_DEBUG( glGetIntegerv )( GL_RED_BITS, &pcaps->red_bits );
GL_DEBUG( glGetIntegerv )( GL_GREEN_BITS, &pcaps->green_bits );
GL_DEBUG( glGetIntegerv )( GL_BLUE_BITS, &pcaps->blue_bits );
GL_DEBUG( glGetIntegerv )( GL_ALPHA_BITS, &pcaps->alpha_bits );
But these seem to be set by your video configuration rather than be set in Egoboo?

Where is this? (I can go debug around it if needed)

This is in ogl_extensions.c
I just did a text search through all the files for any appearance of "red_bits" which seem only to appear in ogl_extensions.c and ogl_extensions.h
It seems that the file only gets the red_bits data but doesn't set anything though.

I found itttttttttttttt
(gdb) print v.gl_att
$4 = {color = {8, 8, 8, 0}, buffer_size = 24, doublebuffer = 1,
depth_size = 32, stencil_size = 0, accum = {0, 0, 0, 0}, stereo = 0,
multi_buffers = 1, multi_samples = 4, accelerated_visual = 1,
swap_control = 0}
depth_size cannot be 32 on this machine, I've attempted to change the z-buf setting in the /etc/egoboo-2.x (it says it loads from there) to 24 but it does
n't work. Fix that in the global setup.txt and we should be good
hmm
Apparently /etc/egoboo-2.x is . if your .egoboo-2.x doesn't have setup.txt.
Also if your .egoboo-2.x doesn't have controls.txt, it doesn't load.

Great job penguinflyer!
So the problem was with the color bits after all. So in the global setup I just make sure this is set?
Code: Select all
[COLOR_DEPTH] : "24"
[Z_DEPTH] : "24"
Maybe I also should disable the ingame setup menu to increase those values beyond 24 on linux?

Thanks again Penguin, here are the steps to get 2.8 working on ubuntu:
Code: Select all
sudo cp /usr/etc/egoboo-2.x/setup.txt ~/.egoboo-2.x/
sudo cp /usr/etc/egoboo-2.x/controls.txt ~/.egoboo-2.x/
Then edit ~/.egoboo-2.x/setup.txt like penguin pointed out:
Also it seems I might have spoken too fast :s . Now I get that problem
http://egoboo.sourceforge.net/forum/vie ... php?t=1051 (game freezing when loading module or quitting :/)
Is it working for you penguin ?

Yay! I got it working now! But now I have that same problem with modules.
