Re: Linux Wolfenstein Enemy Territory - no sound
Hi, I was going nuts with this Wolfenstein Enemy Territory sound issue. I have installed the game, but the sound was not working at all. I have tried almost all available solutions from the Internet. None worked. However I have managed to make one solution work properly for me and voila! I HAVE SOUND MUSIC NOW! )) Read on how I made it: 1. I have downloaded this script: http://nullkey.ath.cx/~stuff/et-sd [...] -sound.gz. (Alternative mirror: http://members.lycos.co.uk/lordban [...] l-sound.gz ) 2. The script was not working from scratch. I have had to edit it manually. First locate where your Wolfenstein installation directory is (via locating et.x86 file. The dir/folder where the file is, is your installation dir. In my case it was /usr/local/games/enemy-territory ) 3. Now open downloaded script wolfsp-sdl-sound file with text editor (on my Mandriva I just used KWrite, but for other distro just use default one) 4. At the beginning of the file you will find disabled grey text/comment. There will be such a text (search for it): # You can set this in GAME_PATH environment variable and just underneath the text there will be the variable called GAME_PATH=. 5. Remove the hash (#) from before the GAME_PATH variable. The text may become colorful as it is no longer disabled comment. 6. Now type in your full path to Wolfenstein installation dir between inverted comas. In my case it looked like this: GAME_PATH=/usr/local/games/enemy-territory. It is like this by defauld, so you may just use it, if you haven't change installation dir. 7. Now go down the file, and locate another variables which are GAME_BIN and GAME_DIR. 8. Change value of GAME_BIN to GAME_BIN='et.x86' 9. Change value of GAME_DIR to your Wolfenstein installation dir only (not a path!). In my case it was: GAME_DIR='enemy-territory'. It's default folder (directory/catalog whatever you call it...) so if you haven't change it during installation, use that one. 10. That's it! 11. Now drag and drop your edited wolfsp-sdl-sound file into the console window and execute it by pressing ENTER. Voila! The Wolfenstein is running with SOUND now! 12. [applause] The main problem with Linux is this damned console/script thing. I mean how they are going to beat Windows, as main Windows advantage is GRAPHICALLY operated environment, not TEXT operated one! This must be changed and all console commands/scripts should have GRAPHICAL (icon to click) equivalent. Enjoy! Banter - Brand new advanced Amiga compatible!

Linux Wolfenstein Enemy Territory - no sound
Hello. I recently installed from ports (games/linux-enemyterritory). At first it complained about missing X11 lib, and I concluded that installing linux-xorg-libs should sort it out. I wass correct (perhaps it should be added as dependency?). Running et it gives: --- sound initialization --- /dev/dsp: Invalid argument Could not mmap /dev/dsp Apparently, it's common problem on Linux too. Simplest solution reported to be working is: echo et.x86 0 0 direct/proc/asound/card0/pcm1p/oss So I think something like sysctl -w something.something=et.x86 0 0 direct should work for me. Searching for device, I have found: sysctl -a | grep 'pcm' dev.emu10kx.0._pcm_front_l: 100 dev.emu10kx.0._pcm_front_r: 100 dev.pcm.0.%desc: EMU10Kx DSP front PCM interface dev.pcm.0.%driver: pcm dev.pcm.0.%parent: emu10kx0 dev.pcm.0.eapd: 1 dev.pcm.0.play.vchans: 1 dev.pcm.0.play.vchanrate: 48000 dev.pcm.0.play.vchanformat: s16le dev.pcm.0.rec.vchans: 1 dev.pcm.0.rec.vchanrate: 48000 dev.pcm.0.rec.vchanformat: s16le dev.pcm.0.buffersize: 65536 dev.pcm.1.%desc: EMU10Kx DSP rear PCM interface dev.pcm.1.%driver: pcm dev.pcm.1.%parent: emu10kx0 dev.pcm.1.play.vchans: 1 dev.pcm.1.play.vchanrate: 48000 dev.pcm.1.play.vchanformat: s16le dev.pcm.1.buffersize: 65536 and sysctl -a | grep 'oss' compat.linux.oss_version: 198144 However, I don't have idea what to do next.

Many thanks, works splendid :) Ironically, I'm leaving at dawn for two weeks AFK. Hugo Silva wrote: Jakub Lach wrote: Hello. I recently installed from ports (games/linux-enemyterritory).
