hello all. I'm trying to get Vendetta to run under FreeBSD (5.3-Release, using X.org 6.7, nvidia 6113 drivers, and linux_base-7.1_7 - with the redhat 7.1 GTK RPM installed - gtk+-1.2.9-4.i386.rpm and libc-2.2.4.so).

I am getting the following error (from errors.conf)

[Thu Nov 11 01:34:04 2004] Can't load driver /usr/home/phragx/.vendetta/drivers/gkalsa.so: libasound.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

[Thu Nov 11 01:34:04 2004] SetVideoMode failed, line 34
Fatal Error: Couldn't open window.

Now, I'm not familiar with this - but it looks like it is resorting to the OSS driver, but below that I have no clue.

ANY help or ideas are appreciated. I know FreeBSD isn't a targeted platform (but given the linux compat. layer it shouldn't be too different) - but I'd love to get this working.

This is probably the problem. AFAIK libGLU is part of Mesa and/or xorg. No idea where you could get that from though. I know next to nothing about freebsd.

EDIT: a google search revealed this:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/graphics/libGLU/
So I guess yo can install it through that ports thingy.

cool. I will try that.

I found another post on these forums (regarding freebsd - I dont know how I didn't find it before) and he had to load the linux version of mesa.

I tried loading a few more RPM's into the linux_base - but I think I got incompatible versions because X crashed when I tried to start the game. It *did* get past the libGLU error though - and went on to select the screen resolution:

Any ideas if this is the Mesa GL driver, or the Nvidia one?

I'm installing libGLU from ports now. Hopefully it will work.

btw: here is the thread I didn't find until after I posted :(

I got it to work, I installed the linux-mesa port and reinstalled my nvidia driver. I get lots of crashes though. Do you (the developers) want to hear about them?

(I'm hoping to not have to load Mesa)

[edit] it seems that it does want the linux version of 'GLU'

ELF file OS ABI invalid < I think this means I need the linux version of libGLU :(

well, I got it to run now - but it hangs on the loader screen. I had to load the redhat Mesa rpm's into /compat/linux

After killing vendetta, here is what the errors.log says

Here you can see it dumps some information after I had to kill it.

btw, everything else should be ok for this system. Quake3 runs razor-fast :)

Weird, it SIGABRT'd in your libGL (or some other library). No bug reporter popped up? Can you try running the game, letting it crash, and then running ~/.vendetta/update.rlb -bugreport ? If I have a bugreport I can decode the symbols.

doh! I just put linux on this system instead (too many linux games, and I didn't like the freebsd redhat linux_base)

Is it possible it aborted when I killed it (it appeared to have hung) and that is why it says it died there?

It runs fine on linux though. (obviously)
