Hi all. I am having problems with d4x. I installed the rpm and executed the program.
I starts up but then dies after it has played the intro sound.
The terminal output is:
(nt:4110): Gtk-WARNING **: Error loading menu image: Image header corrupt

(nt:4110): Gtk-WARNING **: Error loading menu image: Image header corrupt

(nt:4110): Gtk-WARNING **: Error loading menu image: Image header corrupt

(nt:4110): Gtk-WARNING **: Error loading menu image: Image header corrupt
Floating point exception

How can it be fixed?

Compile it from source code

I tried that but I get the following output with make.

I tried it both as root an as a normal user.

./configure
make

use 'su' to log in with root before make install....sometimes needed before make.

make install

I tried it as root, same thing.

Sorry I didn't see that...

You are using Mandrake right? Have you tried all of these precompiled binaries?

http://rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/DByName.html

The original rpm I installed was from the cd. I will download and install one from rpmfind, see if it works.

Okay I tried 2.4.1(doesn't work), I will now try 2.4.0

2.4.0 doesn't work either :-(

i always hated mandrake and redhat for these problems....try upgrading gcc, g++, glibc, and make.

okay thanks i'll try that
