Artificial Intelligence

Though Open Source games rarely have a cover, so I made one (a request from a user), Tremulous. Here's my idea if Tremulous have a CD/DVD cover:

http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Gam...s?content=87273 Knock yourself out B)

What's this?

Dual 22" widescreen ??? If so...lucky Bastard I only got one 22" flat wide screen, it's enough when sniping in ETQW.

Instead of metacity I think KDE is kwin. So it's #!/bin/bash kwin --replace & cd <directory> ./eschalon_book_1 compiz --replace &

It's Kiba-Dock :) I use it because it's more powerful than AWN, should work in KDE (but I havn't tried). At the moment it's only available through SVN. Compiz is required for Kiba-dock.

Would be wayyyy easier to install fusion-icon and set it up in sessions. Then you can enable/Disable compiz with a click. Or make a script for the game; example for gnome; It disable compiz by replacing it with metacity, launching the game afterwards. When you exit the game compiz starts up again. #!/bin/bash metacity --replace & cd <directory> ./eschalon_book_1 compiz --replace & chmod+x the script file and either you can click it to launch or make a nice shortcut in the menu to the script.

Honestly I don't know. But I read somewhere it says yes, but to be sure it would be better to ask them.

Ian is a normadic linux user :D :P OT: I think it's perhaps the ghost from the past that's somehow hunting Mandriva in the light that people don't know it's changed (a kinda FUD?). That could be boiled down to non-existing PR. If I take a look at Ubuntuforums subforums which have places for other distros http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=147 (our gatway for people who want to try another distro(s)) the most hot distros are Arch and Debian (and other Debian based) Distros, where Mandriva there's only a few threads/posts about (kudos to Adam to take time helping out there), which lead to 1) People don't know about Mandriva/what it is 2) Bad reputation from the past. I think the Mandriva users need to user some power on saying; "YO! This is the new shit!!!!" :)

Many (as in most) people like an unbloated default OS which comes with minimal stuff installed (the definition of minimal may be different for each individual - even in the linux world). So Ubuntu comes with their version of it but still have the most common tools/apps its people use. You may not agree with the choice, but it's easy to install/uninstall what you want. ...and the assumption you can do/mastering a whole different OS from the beginning without a little bit of learning? I don't buy that, nor do I think you do if you give it some thought. You'll have exactly the same problem if you put a person behind Windows who never used Windows before. The person have to learn how to do things in Windows. Offtopic: I have crossover. Click the .deb and it's installed and running - I don't see the problem here.

Yeah, lack of maps are a problem, wonder when they make some? I can the current maps in my sleep now.

+1 what arctic said. There's also a healthy competition among distros, though many have diffrent (main) goals/philosophy/idealism so people can pick which one that fit them best which IMHO is nice. Sure sometimes the feelings run a bit high among the "normal" users - but afterall we're human like the rest of the world

Penny Arcade Adventures: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness released! (list modified) and ofcause Penumbra: Black Plague, which I forgot earlier.

Version 1.5 is out!

Meh, I'm being stupid. There's a script that comes with the game. Run it, instead of running the binary. :D :D

NOTE: There's a minor error in the first release regarding libs dependencies. libfmodex.so => not found libfmodevent.so => not found Which comes with the game - but it look for these in the system instead of in the game directory. A quick fix for this is; 32-bit: Copy the two lib files from the game (in linux_libs directory) to /usr/lib 64-bit: Do the same but to /usr/lib32 ldd the binary file to see if you miss something, but it should only be these two files on most distros.

I have to agree that Kubuntu is not so nice/polished as Ubuntu, but I'm a Gnome user :D Nevertheless, if you want to use KDE on Ubuntu, it's way more better to do a server install (minimal installment) and install KDE core, xorg, KDM and customize/add what you like. Then you'll properly get a KDE that you like.

Ofcause it's democratic. But your so called elitism don't suit you by trolling each distro you don't like. It's very arrogant.

You talking out of your ass again, scarecrow. Go troll somewhere else.

Envy is a bad thing :D Nothing wrong with an enthusiastic supporters. What worries me is the lack of enthusiastic supporters of other distros. We're talking about image/face to the outer world here, making known you're there. The Ubuntu community of artists, programmers, bloggers, musicians, writers etc. etc. are part of the success, they are giving the distro a face. I'm an Ubuntu enthusiast, what do I like about computing? Gaming. What did I do? Making an Ubuntu Gaming Site and wrote a tons of installation guides aimed at Ubuntu and made a game list, which have now atm. 3000 hits everyday and estimating triple of hits when this year running out. Create something for your distro that give it a face is my advise.

...and The consoles are OpenGL too, if they want to take that direction (like everybody else it seems).

They have always supported linux - so It's 99% chance it comes as well on Linux.
