I would like to play this game on my new x86_64 box. Since this is a 32bit game I would assume I would need mesa i386 packages. Any this else I should be aware of?
-Thanks
I got the game running except for sound, I don't hear anything. I believe wolfenstein uses oss and /dev/dsp is present. Is there a i386 compat package for oss?
-Thanks
I get up to this point. I think some other program has a lock on this device. Since esd is not installed I'm thinking pulseaudio? Should killing pulseaudio release /dev/dsp?
Startup messages from Wolf:
------- sound initialization ------- /dev/dsp: Invalid argument Could not open /dev/dsp
Usually these games don't interact well with pulseaudio. For Quake Wars to make it work I had to use this, $ /path/to/game/binary +set s_alsa_pcm plughw:0 +set s_numberOfSpeakers2
Maybe you can try something similar. The game forums should be able to help you better in this.
Good luck.
