ixoye777 Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 I am new to Linux so forgive this simple question. I D/L Wolf ET. It came in a zip file which I extracted. How do I now instal the file it gives me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoulSe Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 Easiest would probably be from a terminal. cd into the right directory and then: $ sh et-linux-2.6.0.x86.run Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ixoye777 Posted July 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 (edited) I gave that a go and get the following error: I tried it as root as well. Any ideas? EDIT: NM, figured it out, I just copy/pasted what you wrote and ther was an extra period in it. Thanks for the help.

SoulSe Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 I can't remember how ET installs, but it might be better to run the installer script as user, otherwise you might not be able to run the game as such. Solved? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neddie Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 In a console, tab auto-complete is your friend! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ixoye777 Posted July 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 Yes it is all solved. At first it would not let me instal it as user, gave me an error saying it did not have write permissions to the dir it wanted to instal to. I switched to root and then it installed fine.

SoulSe Posted July 25, 2007 Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 It probably needs a root install then. Enjoy the game :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ixoye777 Posted September 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2007 I did do some searching on the Wolf:ET pages but found no answer to this question. With your help I was able to install Wolfenstien: Enemy territory just fine but I can not figure out how to install the update. Here are the update files is gives me: I looked in my Wolf:Et directory but there were no applicable files to replace. I read the info.text that came with them but there was no help in there either. So, is there someting I do with these files in the Konsole? Any help would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
