it would seem the problem is audio related as turning audio explicitly off in the ut2004.ini file allows the game to run (huray) albiet with no sound. although it only runs first time (ie it segfaults then page faults the kernel if you quit and run again) anyway so now to fight with openal and possibly sdl i have ut2004's provided libSDL moved and then replaced with a link to the debian supplied libSDL in /usr/lib. initially it included libsdl-oss. my computer was completely crashing and rebooting i removed libsdl-oss and wacked on libsdl-alsa (as im using alsa sound). now the pc is just freezing with a black screen. in both cases ive liked the ut2004 openal.so to the debian supplied libopenal.so in /usr/lib i imagine i need to configure it more and also i wouldnt be suprised if there is something wrong with the sound card drivers as its an onboard realtek and the drivers for it have improved considerably over the last few kernel releases. ie no support in 2.6.8, generic recognition and support in 2.6.11 and 12 and now in 14 it seems to realise its an nforce'd realtek chip. (CK804) any help would be nice and muchly appreciated Dean Robert Isaac wrote:

Install the patches after the bonus packs. torrents for the bonus packs can be found here: http://liflg.org/download the patches from here: http://www.unrealtournament.com/ut2004/downloads.phpOn 10/28/05, Dean Hamstead <dean@bong.com.au> wrote:the nvidia driver use 'nvidia' as their driver get 7676 from http://people.debian.org/~rdonald youll have to build them entirely from source debs (no dramas). also go get teh patches from the nvidia forums and apply them to the nv folder before you build the nvidia-kernel-modules youll need too apply then with patch -p1 patch.txt (to drop a level or directories) and then re tar them into nvidia-kernel-source.tar.gz (as module-assistant will untar it again) you can build q3a from source (worth it imo) and it will generate x86_64 binaries however im still looking for someone to produce an 'ldd ut2004-bin' for me please so i cant see what versions are used. someone who gets ut to run please!!

I've always had to run these sort of things from x-windows. Running from a terminal would be best I suspect, if the game supports it I will run it from there and see what happens.Are you trying to run ut2004 in 32 bit mode or 64 bit?Originally I just ran it from the desktop icon that was created (if I remember correctly). I never knew there was a 64bit version. I don't have a chroot here but I do have ia32 libs installed so I do get some 32 bit apps to run. If there is a 64 bit version I would run that, but if not I'd have to run the 32 bit if I can get compatibility.----- Original Message ----- From: "Alan Ianson" <alianson@shaw.ca> To: <debian-amd64@lists.debian.org> Sent: Friday, October 28, 2005 1:34 PM Subject: Re: unreal tournament 2004 for x86_64 on debianOn Fri October 28 2005 11:05 am, Mike Dobbs wrote:What errors are you getting?After I installed the latest update it stopped working.

Do these nvidia modules work with the "nv" driver I am using now, or do I need to get/build a new "nvidia" driver for the xorg config?I had to link the openal library to use the 64bit system library.I will have to do that too I think, how would I do that?----- Original Message ----- From: "Alan Ianson" <alianson@shaw.ca> To: <debian-amd64@lists.debian.org> Sent: Friday, October 28, 2005 1:01 PM Subject: Re: unreal tournament 2004 for x86_64 on debianOn Fri October 28 2005 09:49 am, Mike Dobbs wrote:What problems are you having? ut2004 runs fine in my amd64 debian sid and ubuntu amd64. Running 64bit.This amd64 box is new to me, so I have to get used to the way it wants to play. I have run quake3 with linux (32bit) before, it ran wonderfully but I had no sound. Q3 just isn't the same without BANG BANG! I have never tried it since. I have had UT2004 running with debian amd64. It ran fine, sound and video. But when I upgraded to the latest linux version (ut2004) it stopped working, I don't know why. I had the nvidia drivers installed from the nvidia site since I couldn't get them installed the debian way. I'm going to try again with testing and see if I can do it the debian way so future upgrades won't be a problem. There is nobody in my neck of the woods I can ask about setting this stuff up under linux, so I mostly stumble around in the dark and try to scan these groups for info on getting them up and running. If It could be done I would like to have UT (the classic version, had it running nicely under 32bit linux), UT2K3/4 and Quake 3 running here on my debian amd-64 box.----- Original Message ----- From: "studio-64" <fsmith@walescomputers.co.uk> To: "Alan Ianson" <alianson@shaw.ca>; <debian-amd64@lists.debian.org> Sent: Friday, October 28, 2005 11:39 AM Subject: Re: unreal tournament 2004 for x86_64 on debianPlease let us all know when you get it working, as I miss these as well on my 64studio (yeah I know I should be making music, not playin' games!!)

I don't have the nvidia drivers installed at the moment. I can't get them installed for some reason on stable. I'm running testing at the moment so I am going to give installing them the debian way again when I get a chance. Last time I installed the driversfrom the nvidia site and did have it working, as long as I didn'tupgrade (ut2004) to the latest upgrade. I must say it worked a real charm. I really enjoy UT and quake 3 and have missed them since switching to linux. I'm going to have to have a good sit down with debian and see if I can get these things going here.
