Title: Help!
Post by: Namless on 24 August 2009, 15:11:55

I want to install the game in my Ubuntu 9.04 but I can't do it. I download the loki files but it doesn't works. Can you explain me how to install it in Spanish? I understand English but I prefer the Spanish.

Thank you

Hey I use Kubuntu so we are very similar.

Go in Teminal, and type:

sudo apt-get install glest

that should do the trick.

And then to the language file, start game but then click options and change the language file to English.

Ok click here (https://forum.megaglest.org/index.php?topic=4254.msg24188#msg24188) to download it.
Now that you the binaries and data unzip the them, you will have 2 folders go in one of them (It doesn't mater which one.) and copy all the files from it into the other then double click on glest. (You might need to right click on glest and go properties, permissions, and check out allow executing file as program

But when I do this, it appears a new file: "glest.log" an into this file there is this:

"./glest.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libopenal.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"

So when your computer tried to run glest.bin it couldn't find the shared library called: libopenal.so.0, cause it doesn't exist.

Sounds to me like you don't have OpenAL installed but I'm just guessing because I've never encountered that error before.

read this :
https://forum.megaglest.org/index.php?topic=4254.0

you have to create a link to libopenal.so.1 which is called libopenal.so.0

Code: [Select]

ln -s /usr/lib/libopenal.so.1 <PathToGlestInstallation>/lib/libopenal.so.0
This is a known problem for newer linuxes and I don't know how to make it work on old and new linuxes.( anyone has an idea how to fix it? )
