Where is the .ini 3.2.2?

[Eragon0605]

I can't find the .ini file anymore! It used to be in /home/<username>/.config/glest, but I can't seem to find it. The .config folder is there, but not the glest folder inside it.

Have you played Glest, or installed it on that computer?

[Eragon0605]

Yes, Glest is installed. It won't run, but it never has when the resolution is 640x480. I don't think my video card supports it. I just reinstalled Ubuntu 9.10, and installed Glest through Synaptic, like usual. The only thing out of the ordinary is the missing Glest folder.

So basically you lost your glest.ini?

Well, I didn't really lose it, because I didn't have it in the first place, but, yes, I do not have a glest.ini file, or any other file that is supposed to be in the Glest folder. Well, I suppose I could try and download the version from the Glest site...

[Eragon0605]

Alright, well, I downloaded the official binaries and data, and the program won't start. The screen goes black, then my computer crashes. I recently upgraded my graphics card from a GeForce 9500 to a GTX 260, but I am pretty sure I ran Glest on my GTX. Does Glest have any problems with this particular video card? One thing I am not sure I ran Glest under the 190.53 nvidia drivers. I'll update to the very newest drivers, and see if that helps anything.

EDIT: Bah, I installed the new drivers (195.36.08), and the exact same thing happens when I start up the program.

Here's the package content:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/i386/glest/filelist

There's a glest.ini but i'm not sure if it is used directly. The first entry is probably a script which sets up stuff in your home directory. If you're familar with bash take a look and file a bugreport on launchpad. The package maintainer is not on this board.

Where did you download the official binaries and which one?

Wait a second? :D
Your ini file is in with the data and binaries you combined.
I thought you installed with synaptic. :P

if you installed glest with the package manager, the glest.ini is in your homedirectory  "~/.glest/glest.ini" .
You have to change the reolution in this glest.ini.

if you installed glest with the package manager, the glest.ini is in your homedirectory  "~/.glest/glest.ini" .

Actually Titi, that's incorrect on up-to-date systems. :-\

[Eragon0605]

I downloaded them from https://forum.megaglest.org/index.php?topic=4254.0
In the first sentence of the first paragraph, there are the links to donwload binaries and data. Those are the ones I have right now.

[-Archmage-]

Then the .ini should be right in there with the data and binaries. :)

[Eragon0605]

Ah, yes, but my computer crashes when starting glest even when the resolution is higher now. I know it is not my graphics card is improperly installed; I can run 0 A.D. no problem. This is getting off topic, perhaps I should try and start a new one...
