doom install
mmm... new to linux, blah blah blah. Using Suse 9.2. In the two months I've had using linux, I don't think I've ever gotten anything to work any better than it did the first day. Videos, games, printers, usb, none of it works. I understand that this will take time, and my growth has probably been stunted by the fact I can only use the linux about 30 minutes a day due to job/school. However, idealogically I can not return to windows. Now that summer is approaching I hope to have time to understand linux.
Trouble installing doom. I downloaded it from the following link: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/d...2_linux.tar.gz I unzipped it... Code:
Script started on Wed 27 Apr 2005 11:16:21 PM CDTCode:
jordan@linux:~/Desktop/legacy_142_linux> makeBy the way, what does "make" do? What does "configure" do? Here's a list of files in the folder. Code:

i think u gotta cd to the directory you extracted all that stuff (legacy_142_linux or whatever), then start again with make
|
Yea, haha, the script didn't show it, but I did. Good catch though.;)

make won't work, because there is no Makefile. Have you looked at the README file, which should tell you how to install.

Yes, I know it used to say "/Desktop", but trust me, the output is the same (I just did that script real quick to get its output). As for the readme, here it is:

The command make LINUX=1 gives: Code:

OK, what you've downloaded isn't the source. You've got a binary package, which, from the look of that README, you type llxdoom to run.
The instructions about make LINUX=1 only apply to the source package. |
So this is Doom I? If you really only want to play it (instead of installing for proving you can run it natively), and you have a fairly new machine, you may want to take a look at dosbox (which comes with your SuSE 9.2). For this, you'll need the DOS version of Doom (but no DOS, as dosbox comes with it's own). It runs Doom just fine, and a lot of other older DOS games.

You could try prboom or this is even better http://www.doomsdayhq.com/index.php
