how to execute racer!?
 

for some days ago i downloaded racer frm racer.nl, the last stable version 0.5.0. i tried every single file last night - there is no executable one!! how do i start the game?

What kind of file did it come in??? (eg .bin, .rpm)

.tgz

why didnt u just install the rpm of racer that is built for suse that is found on ftp.suse.com?????

because i didn't know it exists. i'll download it now, thank you for the hint!

cannot find the file there.

ftp://ftp.oregonstate.edu/pub/suse/s...0-227.i586.rpm

ftp://ftp.oregonstate.edu/pub/suse/s...0-227.i586.rpm

These are on Oregon State's server, it runs a bit faster than SUSE's as it isn't quite as overloaded. Any missing dependancies you should be able to get from there. Another thing you could do is go into YaST, remove your Personal CD as an installation source, and add this ftp server as an installation source.

ftp://ftp.oregonstate.edu/pub/suse/suse/i386/9.1/

And then click on Racer in YaST and it will automatically download and install it. Now you will have access to everything SUSE Pro has minus a couple proprietary packages. That should save you a lot of installation problems later. Anyways, ttyl

great, thank you!! :)

error occurs everytime. :(

hey, how do you get racer to run when you've already got the rpm? it gives me warning, WARNING: A color depth of 24 bit for your display is recommended for playing Racer. Use SaX2 for configuration. Does my video card need to support that or can I just change it 24 bit?

i downloaded some binaries for the other version but they won't work either...

you acn change to 24 bit using sax2
