Hello, new user here. Great demo, can't wait for the full version, makes me glad when developers step forward and release Linux clients.

The method for getting a specific resolution is here: http://frictionalgames.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=628
Note that in Linux there is no "My Documents/Penumbra Overture/Episode 1".
Instead, it's at "~/.frictionalgames/Penumbra Overture/Episode1".
Hope that helps!

Yeah! now it works! I can load the demo without floating exception. Thanks to Urkle for fixing this issue.
There's only a little mess with the sound. First time I started there was sound, but since my amarok was running I quitted and closed amarok just to start the Demo alone again.
Since then I receive positive shell output
Code:
esd grab audio okOther apps still run with sound, so it seems not to concern the sound engine itself but the demo.
I'll inform your about any progress :-)
Thanx and Greetings again,
Homer

:-D And you don't need much time for it ... I came to an end after up to 20 min. Well of course ... it's just a demo ;-)
RE: Linux Beta Demo and Feedback - Sharpshooter - 03-27-2007
It works !
I still got the "GLIBC_2.4" problem when I use the given libopenal*, libalut*, libstdc++* files. So I had to delete those files and now it works. I installed libopenal0 package from Debian to replace the bad files. No more "floating point exception".
By the way, it looks like a very great game ! I will buy it as soon it will be avalaible.
Will it be possible to have localized versions for Linux ?
RE: Linux Beta Demo and Feedback - Thib_G - 03-27-2007
Thanks a lot !
With the new demo, the only problem I have is related to sound, and I read you're already working on it.
I also noticed the full game will be translated into French. When it will be released and fully compatible with linux, I'll buy it
RE: Linux Beta Demo and Feedback - alienjon - 03-27-2007
Kudos on porting to Linux guys. I, for one, really appreciate the effort. I have especially looking for this kind of game for a while now and I'm glad to see that there is finally one coming out!
I would like to try the demo to get a feel for gameplay but I'm having two problems.
First and foremost, I cannot download the torrent files themselves, the connection always times out for some reason (that goes for both the original beta post and the second one too) A google search showed that someone in the ubuntu forums mentioned the problem and posted the torrent file as a zip file in their forums, so thats where I was able to get the file.
Having finally downloaded it onto my computer, I am now having the 'frontend' problem that others seem to be having (I'm on an Athlon 64 X2 4400+ processor, but it sounds like other 64 bitters are able to get around the issue) I tried the suggestion a while back of explicitly stating the target directory, but I still get the error right after that and cannot do the other steps. It sounds like getting the new beta release (the tarball) would allow me to compile it myself and would therefore fix this 'missing libraries) issue (and as a gentooer, compiling is my thing :-p) But the catch 22 there is that I can't download the file in the first place (see problem 1)
RE: Linux Beta Demo and Feedback - Thib_G - 03-27-2007
I've got one segfault, but I can't reproduce it.
By the way, I noticed several minors data-related issues ( I mean, it's about the physicals properties of the objects ). I'll made a short video showing it.
RE: Linux Beta Demo and Feedback - Thib_G - 03-27-2007
Having trouble to host the video files, I'll try to explain :
In the first level, the bucket is a plain block ( I mean, you cannot put things into it )
You cannot break the whiskey bottle when you are holding it, but when it falls onto the pillow, it break itself...
