Odin · « **Reply #3 on:** November 16, 2006, 02:08:20 am »

Accessories -> Terminal

You'll need to move to the directory where you installed it. Tell me where you installed it to, and I'll put it into a command.

Ok once you're in the terminal, type(and hit enter afterword) the following:

Code: [Select]

cd /home/kevin/Desktop/
chmod +x tremulous-1.1.0-installer.x86.run
sudo ./tremulous-1.1.0-installer.x86.run

It will ask for your password. Type it in and hit enter. The installer should extract and run. Install it to the default locations.

Master_Frag · « **Reply #6 on:** November 16, 2006, 02:14:10 am »

the console says th following...sudo: ./tremulous-1.1.0-installer.x86.run: command not found .....chmod: cannot access `tremulous-1.1.0-installer.x86.run': No such file or directory

Odin · « **Reply #12 on:** November 16, 2006, 02:29:26 am »

Ok. In the terminal, type in "tremulous" and hit enter. Tell me what it says in the last line after it closes. You may not have your video card drivers installed.

What video card do you have? If you have an nvidia card, do the following in the terminal:

Code: [Select]

sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
Then, a text editor should pop up. Scroll down and uncomment(by taking out the # in the front) the line that has "multiverse" at the end. JUST THAT LINE, nothing else. Then save it and close it.
This do this:

Code: [Select]

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
It should install the nvidia drivers. When that's done, reboot and try playing tremulous again. If the same thing happens, do this:

Code: [Select]

sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
A text editor should pop up. DO NOT CHANGE ANYTHING UNLESS I TELL YOU TO DO SO! Look for something like this:

Quote

Section "Device"
Identifier "NVIDIA Geforce 7800GT"
Driver "nvidia"
BusID "PCI:5:0:0"
VideoRam 262144
EndSection

Thats my video card section in my xorg.conf. Yours will have the Driver set to "nv". Change it to "nvidia", like mine, and save/close. Reboot and try tremulous again.

IF YOU MESS UP YOUR XORG.CONF, YOU MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO BOOT INTO A GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE. TO FIX IT, LOGIN AND TYPE "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg", OR EDIT IT BY HAND TO RESTORE THE GUI.

Well you need to in order to install the correct driver that allows 3D acceleration.

Here's the official way to do it:
Official Help Page

I guess you've already installed the driver, right?

Master_Frag · « **Reply #18 on:** November 16, 2006, 03:13:56 am »

I think i just made it worse...
After installing drivers it now says this in console:
