Artificial Intelligence

Which version of Ubuntu do you have (I just moved to 8.04 beta). Note the icon theme I mixed together isn't fully complete...and I'm going to remake it again as some of the icons changed name again in gnome *sigh*

If you have a name plus number on the printer it's possible to see/follow if the printer gets/is supported in any newer kernel.

Take two asprins :D If you don't like the color of Ubuntu why don't you change it? I'll glady send you my theme I used. :)

Bought, installed and running B) Just have to say DAMN!!!!1 It's awesome! Running it 22" flat widescreen and 8800GTX 768MB card, I'm impressed! Liked another world swallow you up. NOTE: savage 2 have high requirements so if you don't have a machine to pull it, this game might not be for you. Minimum: Processor - 2.2Ghz P4 or faster AMD 2000+ or faster RAM - 1 Gb of ram Video Card - 128Mb fully directx 9.0 compliant Geforce Network Connection Required We strongly advise players to use components closer to the recommended system requirements. While the game will function with these minimum requirements it will have significantly poorer performance than the recommended requirements. Recommended: Processor - 2.0ghz Core 2 duo / AMD 3500+ or faster RAM - 1.5 Gb or higher Video Card - 256Mb Geforce 7800+ or Radeon x1900+ Network Connection Required (Broadband)

Savage 2: A Tortured Soul Released!!!!

The linux client for Savage 2: A Tortured Soul is out! There's both 32bit and 64bit support for linux. There's 5 hours of full play for free. Each match is a war for dominance where two teams of 5 to 32 players attempt to destroy each other. Assume your position as a fighter, armed with swords, guns, and magic; or take the field as a support character that builds, heals, and resurrects fallen comrades. Feel like bringing out the big stick? Become a siege unit like the Behemoth or the battering ram to destroy enemy buildings. Always thought you were a natural born leader? Take control as the leader of the action, the commander, who builds, researches, expands, and tactically strategizes your team's efforts.

Could it be that the lib is called libGL.so.0, but are looking for libGL.so.1?

The Anawiki Games have released a followup to Runes of Avalon, with the surprising name Runes of Avalon 2. http://anawiki.com/game/runes-of-avalon-2.php Next game which also will be supported for linux from Anawiki is Simon the Farmer, a game for kids.

Added Shadowgrounds Shadowgrounds Survivor

I know, just havn't time to add them :) Will do, just been quiet busy lately.

Thanks.

Is there a ~date on when KDE 4.1 is going to be released? I'm going to give KDE a go when it's 4.1.x

It's properly meant that Linux is better than Windows. That's how I understand it.

Meh, I don't have anything new to contribute with this month :mellow: unless.... The almighty vic20

If you want to play and not pay, there's many excellent open source and free games out there. Don't use pirate stuff, you harm the already fragile linux game industry. Go and pay for it if you want future release of games for linux!!! You won't recieve any help from the linux community if you pirate.

Added: The Age of Decadence

Added: The Legend of Crystal Valley World under Siege Astromenace 2 Wakfu

Added Afterfall - If you're into fallout this is the game. Afterfall promises to be very realistic and beautiful. You could do a lot of things there , drive vehicles, travel with parties use drugs , mutate, implant cybernetic organs, trade in slaves, move things, realistic NPC's who don't just rush to die and much much much much more.... This game will have many similarities to fallout , the turn based battles will be similar, the ability to chose in which part of the body you want to shoot at and many other things. This game is for the more mature audience ands is not suitable for kids.

Added: Penumbra: Black Plague (check out Penumbra: Overture as Black Plague is Penumbra 2) Penny Arcade Adventures: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness

Which genre?

I just deleted v.1.2 and made a full unstall with v.1.4. It works great. Alot of cool features and stuff.

GetLibs is a tool which solve 32-bit dependencies on a 64-bit machine. This make it alot easier to run 32-bit apps/games which isn't Open Source but are made as dynamic binaries. An exampel: cd ~/Desktop/MyGame getlibs <MyGame.binary> GetLibs will check the games dependencies (ldd list), usually .so files, figures out which lib packages contains these files. Then via Ubuntu 32-bit official sources it installs the 32-bit packages in Ubuntu 64-bits lib32. Bingo the game works. Other option via getlibs: Installing the write Libs which contains these files: getlibs -l libogg.so.0 libSDL-1.2.so.0 Installing 32-bit packages into 64-bit getlibs -p libqt4-core libqt4-gui Installing a 32-bit .deb package on 64-bit that you manually downloaded without forcing it or breaking something getlibs -i ~/i386_library_1.deb This will automatically grab/download a 32-bit package getlibs -w ubuntu.com/i386_library_1.deb Other options -build: converts a 32-bit package to a 64-bit package and installs it. This will only install libraries from a 32-bit package into the correct place! This will not install any binaries from that package! This is very beta. --savebuild: use with --build. Saves new 64-bit package to /home/$USER --mirror or -m : Use the specified mirror to download from if one is not specified for package --verbose : Extra output --ldconfig : Runs ldconfig on directories where new libraries are installed -64 : Will let apt-get install 64-bit packages for a 64-bit system -32 : Left only for compatibility with getlibs v1 --distro : can set as either Ubuntu or Debian. Ubuntu installs to /usr/lib32 and/or /lib32. Debian installs to /emul/ia32-linux/ --release : can set as hardy gutsy feisty edgy or dapper. Determines what web interface release is used in search. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=474790 I found this tool very useful when writing Game guides for 64-bit. I have been talking to Cappy (The maker of getlibs) that a complete new rebuild of getlibs will see the light, but he wasn't sure when.

Read all about it at Phoronix.com. Includes Gnome's own flash player (open source flash).

List renewed, take a look ^_^
