RE: Linux Beta Demo and Feedback

On Fedora 7 Test 2 (and I imagine the same goes for FC6 and 5 as well as F7 release), I just had to add mesa-libGLU.i386 for compatibility. Also, I had to make sure the 32-bit compatibility libs for nvidia were installed.

A request, though: is it possible to check on a change of screen resolution whether the new mod timings would work with the monitor? As soon as I switched mine to 1280x800 (I have a widescreen LCD monitor capable of going 1680x1050) and restarted the game, the timing went out of range. Unfortunately, I couldn't quit the game blind so I had to go to kill X (killing just the game from a virtual console didn't seem to reset the video settings). Now, I've no way to restore it to default config (800x600) other than reinstalling the game cause I can't seem to figure out which config file to edit.

Hmm.. I'm going to look into implementing a -safemode command line parameter to help with that..

Otherwise.. config file is stored in your home directory
~/.frictionalgames/Penumbra Overture/Episode 1/settings.cfg
