Orxonox

To alway get the newest Orxonox Ubuntu packages add the following source to '/etc/apt/sources.list' : The Ubuntu packages are also available under
http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~psachs/

Actual version: 0.3.6.2 (alpha)

To start orxonox with an ati graphic carde use: or use the menu entree under Applications/Games

Changes:
- There's a menu entree for Orxonox. It starts orxonox with the "env..." to avoid a freez at startup for ati graphic card users.
- The standart data path is now set right. So you don't have to change it by hand.
- The packages was built with the source code Revision 10034.

comments:
The packages are test versions. I built it with Ubuntu edgy and an i386 architecture. If someone finds errors please reply. If someone has an older version of Ubuntu or a different architecture and the packages work fine, please write it to me so I can write that in a readme.

Very nice! Can't wait to test it... but the download speed is really slow... so I will probably write my feedback tomorrow.

Hei edrundor,

Thx very much for your help! I have written you an email with account informations for the Wiki. To ensure that your work is never lost and others are able to use your package, you could add the link to the installation guide for Ubuntu

Thx again!

I just figured out that there are still some problems with my package:

1. because both package depends on each other you can't install them with doubleklick. You have to install it with dpkg -i (see instructions on my page).

2. While installing it throws some error message because of configuration stuff. I try to fix that for the next version. But actually it doesn't matter because it works anyway.

I think that is so cool I can't express it in any language I speak.

*gg*

It works!!!
my errors:

Good news for all Ubuntu users:

this evening I found some time to set up a repository for my packages. So you can install them directly over Synaptic or aptitude whatever you prefer.

To get the files add following source to '/etc/apt/sources.list' : At the ETH you should get a good download speed (I got around 900 Kb/s). At home it's maybe a little slow.

With the repository I didn't get any error messages like I descriped befor. So have fun with the new oportunity.

If you have any problems feel free to send me a mail or write it here.

From now on I will edit the first post if there are any changes. So I did some changes, how you (soon) can see

Repository added. I will automatically test all versions that you upload. Good work

thanks for making that package, unfortunately i cant test it since i dont have an ubuntu, but i'm sure that many people who were afraid of checking it out over svn will now have the chance to play orxonox

Late report: the menu entry works fine and the icon looks good! Well done!

have you added the installation script to the source of Orxonox?
normally these things are located in scripts/ubuntu/...

I don't know which installation script you're thinking about. Ubuntu packages doesn't have any installation scripts. The packages just contains the directories and files where the things are installed to and a rule how to remove them. Anyway the sources aren't available on my repositorie jet. I will do that as soon as I find some time. I can add there the files I needed to build the packages if you wish that.

yeah, that was what i was thinking about
