I compiled the source, copied the programm and the .ini to the data files and started the game.
with beta1 this worked, but 3.0.0 gives me this :

void Shared::Platform::Window::setStyle(Shared::Platform::WindowStyle) not implemented.
Exception: Font not found.

oh, and I made sure there were no files of previos installation left.

any suggestions?

you need to use the right glest.ini file, the one in the source package, not the one in the data

as I said, I coppied it.
the ini from the data files gives me this error:
Exception: Couldn't set video mode 1024x768 (32bpp 0 stencil 32 depth-buffer). SDL Error is: Couldn't find matching GLX visual.

Oh by the way I'm using Ubuntu 7.10 64bit if that helps any.

Oh found it, pretty simple realy.
The game is searching for a font called utopia, which is rather uncommon I think.
Changed it in the .ini to one I have and the game starts.

How exactly do you change it to a different font? What do you put instead of:

...FogOfWarSmoothingFrameSkip=3
FontConsole=-*-*-*-*-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
FontDisplay=-*-*-*-*-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
FontMenu=-*-*-*-*-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Lang=english.lng...


Oh... It wasn't the font. *bashes head on wall*
