Linux Beta Demo and Feedback (1.0.1 Final Out) - Urkle - 03-22-2007 Penumbra Overtue Episode 1 Demo v1.0.1 is now available for linux. Download it from penumbra-overture.com All Support issues should now be posted to The linux Tech Support Thread Beta 3 has been Release Note This will hopefully be the last beta release of the demo. I am pleased to announce the initial linux beta demo release of Penumbra: Overture Episode 1. Currently the Linux demo is only being released via Bit torrent. If you wish to help in distributing, just keep seeding it when you have finished downloading it. Once I get feedback and fix any new found bugs from this beta we will release the final demo and push it out to mirrors. Please do not mirror this demo at this time. Report any issues to this forum thread as I will be checking this thread regularly for feedback. To install just download PenumbraDemo-Beta3.sh or if you already have an older dmeo installed, PenumbraDemoUpgrade-Beta3.sh Then run sh ./PenumbraDemo-Beta3.sh from a terminal. Note This does NOT need to be run as root, and would be preferrable not to do so. By default the installer will install into a directory of PenumbraEp1Demo in your home directory. Once installed run the "penumbrademo" script in the install directory. cd ~/PenumbraEp1Demo ./penumbrademo Tracker URL. Demo Download (Bit Torrent) Regards, Edward Rudd Changes in Beta 3

Known Issues There are currently no known issues RE: Linux Beta Demo and Feedback - Dark - 03-22-2007 cool maybe gonna try when i reinstall linux :p RE: Linux Beta Demo and Feedback - hikaricore - 03-22-2007 Downloading right now This demo has already been mentioned in on the Ubuntu forums earlier (folks were running the windows version in wine) and will soon be mentioned on UGA when AI gets a chance to update. I've only seen a couple screen shots so far but I'm still really hyped to see a linux port of new game. RE: Linux Beta Demo and Feedback - Diablo150 - 03-22-2007 Thank you for the Linux client. But I've some troubles. I'm in x86_64 system (Debian) and when I want to run the demo (on 32 bits mode), I've this error message: ./penumbrademo.bin: /emul/ia32-linux/lib/tls/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.4' not found (required by ./lib/libopenal.so.0) ./penumbrademo.bin: /emul/ia32-linux/lib/tls/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.4' not found (required by ./lib/libalut.so.0) So, I'm replace missing libraries by the 32 bits libraries on my system. And I've this message: ./penumbrademo: line 2: 8165 Exception en point flottant LD_LIBRARY_PATH=./lib ./penumbrademo.bin Am I must use a specific version ? (Sorry for my English, I'm French) http://www.jeuvinux.net/breve.php3?id_breve=223 RE: Linux Beta Demo and Feedback - hikaricore - 03-22-2007 Diablo150 Wrote:Thank you for the Linux client. Same here in on a 32bit system: Code: [hikaricore@devistate:~/PenumbraEp1Demo (6.3 Mb)]$ ./penumbrademo I'm going to try and run it as a new user then root to see if it'll start. *update* Tried running as a new user as well as root, reinstalling for each with no luck. System spec: 2.7ghz pentium 512mb ram Nvidia GeForce 6200 /w 256mb ram Ubuntu Edgy 6.10 (kernel 2.6.17-11) RE: Linux Beta Demo and Feedback - Urkle - 03-22-2007 The build system is a Fedora Core 6 system, so the libs require Glibc 2.4 right now.. I'm going to see if I can rebuild it so it will require a lesser glibc for better compatability. however that Floating point exception does sound rather strange. Can you guys turn on core dumping and get a backtrace? ulimit -c unlimited ./penumbra (upon crash a core file will be produces with the process id #. example: core.141332) gdb ./penumbra.bin core.141332 thread apply all bt full then give me the output of all that mess.. OR if the core files aren't too big, you can PM me a place to download the core files directly RE: Linux Beta Demo and Feedback - hikaricore - 03-22-2007 I'm not able to get a core file for some reason. :/ Let me search around for a bit, I have a feeling that ubuntu might be configured to put core files in a central location which is yet unknown to me. /tmp/core doesn't exist so i'm running: Code: locate -u / So I can do a system wide search. >.< *update* nada still can't get a core dump and there weren't any core files in the pid range that the game used during my tests. RE: Linux Beta Demo and Feedback - Urkle - 03-23-2007 I'm downloading a copy of Ubuntu 6.10 32-bit and will test it and see if I can track down the issue. RE: Linux Beta Demo and Feedback - ViRgiLiO - 03-23-2007 I guess if Linux will be supported as Windows version. If so, I will buy right now a copy of the game.[/align] RE: Linux Beta Demo and Feedback - timonator - 03-23-2007 what is this? Code: Verifying archive integrity... All good. Code: for LCPP in $LIBSTDCPPS the installer (fortunately!) told me the command it wasn't able to run (i was, tho) and so i was able to install the game now, quickly started it and it seems to run fine. i'll wait until my system update is through (darn you, gentoo. heh) and then really play it |
