TUXKART INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS.
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
INSTALLATION:
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
First, make sure that you have the following packages installed:
|
|
|
|
* OpenGL (or Mesa 3.0 or later)
|
|
* PLIB version 1.8.4 or later .
|
|
|
|
Unpack the files from the tarball like this:
|
|
|
|
tar xzf tuxkart-*.tar.gz
|
|
cd tuxkart-*
|
|
|
|
|
|
(where '*' is the version of TuxKart you downloaded - eg 0.4.0) ...and then:
|
|
|
|
./configure
|
|
make
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can run the game from the directory you downloaded it into - or (as
|
|
'root') you can install it into /usr/local/share/games/tuxkart by typing;
|
|
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
|
|
But it didn't work!
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Well, the most common (by FAR) reason for problems is that your OpenGL/Mesa
|
|
is incorrectly installed - so before you complain to any of the PLIB or
|
|
TuxKart mailing lists, first try running one of the example programs
|
|
that comes with your OpenGL implementation - or one of the Mesa or GLUT
|
|
sample programs.
|
|
|
|
If you those examples run OK - then go to the PLIB home page and download
|
|
the PLIB examples.
|
|
|
|
If THOSE run correctly - but TuxKart doesn't then please get in touch with
|
|
the TuxKart mailing list and we'll do our best to get you up and racing.
