#eulora Logs for 31 Aug 2017



August 31st, 2017 by Diana Coman
mircea_popescu: hm [00:01]
mircea_popescu: what if you don't move them, what happens ? [00:01]
rinzler: I just get an error saying that both are not found. I suspect if I could change the location in the code it might work, but I have no idea where that could be located [00:02]
mircea_popescu: it'd be ion the makefile. [00:02]
mircea_popescu: anyway, a number of diff people read these logs, may be able to suggest something to try later today. [00:03]
mod6: rinzler: what do the following give: [00:03]
mod6: echo [00:03]
mod6: echo [00:04]
rinzler: oh thats odd. is blank, while CRYSTAL directs to /dev/. I'm sure I set LD, though [00:05]
mircea_popescu: heh [00:05]
mircea_popescu: its per window [00:05]
mod6: try setting these as in the guide and then see [00:05]
rinzler: still nothing [00:08]
mircea_popescu: same death ? [00:09]
rinzler: yup, no change in the message [00:09]
mircea_popescu: hm [00:09]
mod6: Did step #5 complete successfully? [00:10]
mod6: (all the steps in that section) [00:10]
rinzler: Hm, let me go ahead and do it again [00:11]
mod6: Alright. [00:12]
rinzler: yeah step five completed successfully [00:14]
mod6: ok. go into the dev directory that you created to build all of these things. [00:15]
mod6: then do: pwd [00:15]
mod6: and paste us the result [00:15]
rinzler: I'm only getting home/usr/dev [00:17]
mod6: that's exactly what it says? [00:17]
mod6: "home/usr/dev" ? [00:17]
rinzler: usr in place of my user name [00:17]
mod6: oh. so actually like, "/home/rinzler/dev" then 'eh ? [00:18]
rinzler: yeah [00:18]
mod6: ok cool [00:18]
mod6: now paste us the result of : echo [00:18]
mod6: and [00:18]
mod6: echo [00:18]
rinzler: test [00:20]
rinzler: weird [00:20]
rinzler: "home/rinzler/dev/cs-forupload" for CRYSTAL [00:21]
rinzler: and "home/rinzler/dev/cal3d/src/cal3d/.lib/" [00:21]
rinzler: for LD [00:21]
rinzler: .libs* [00:21]
mod6: ok, it is very important that there actually be a preceeding '/' infront of this: "home/rinzler/dev/cs-forupload" [00:22]
mod6: is this the case? [00:22]
rinzler: yes, sorry [00:22]
mod6: ok np [00:22]
mod6: (same goes for: "home/rinzler/dev/cal3d/src/cal3d/.lib/") [00:22]
rinzler: yes [00:22]
mod6: so how did it go with step #6, did this complete successfully for you? [00:23]
rinzler: From what I remember, yes. [00:24]
mod6: can you pinpoint the exact step that you executed on the command line that yielded the error that you pasted before? [00:25]
mod6: (im just trying to figure out where things went south for ya) [00:25]
rinzler: step 7. "./configure --with-cal3d=/home/ossa/dev/cal3d" [00:26]
mod6: ah. ok [00:26]
rinzler: mircea suggested trying to change the location check for cs-config, as it looks for it in the usr/bin [00:27]
mod6: I've gone through these exact build steps myself, at least 3 times. maybe 4. don't think i ever had to do that. [00:29]
mod6: I have limited exp tho. [00:29]
rinzler: initially both cs-config-2.1 and cs-config could not be found until I moved it to the /usr/bin [00:30]
mod6: do you have ~34 files in /home/rinzler/dev/cs-forupload/bin ? [00:30]
rinzler: what would be the command to check for what? [00:31]
mod6: ( i guess 33 ) : [00:32]
mod6: anyway [00:32]
rinzler: 321 [00:33]
mod6: < rinzler> initially both cs-config-2.1 and cs-config could not be found until I moved it to the /usr/bin << makes me think that something in the cs build didn't come out right [00:34]
mod6: my bad too, you want to do: [00:34]
rinzler: 153 [00:35]
mod6: weird. [00:35]
mod6: can you paste us the output of: to p.bvulpes.com ? [00:36]
rinzler: instead of root, the access is currently on "rinzler" or my actual name. [00:37]
mod6: whatever the actual dir name is, I just wanna see what you have 153 of in there. [00:38]
rinzler: okay give me a min [00:39]
mod6: np take your time. [00:39]
rinzler: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/AIkxa/?raw=true [00:40]
mod6: ok that looks ok. i don't know. the only thing I could do is simply just try to walk you through step-by-step one at a time. [00:42]
mod6: maybe someone else knows. [00:43]
rinzler: I might try the whole thing all over again. Maybe something is wrong with the cs build [00:43]
rinzler: could permissions potentially be a problem? [00:44]
mod6: yeah, that's my suggestion basically. start over completely. nuke your dev dir, start fresh. [00:44]
mod6: permissions can possibly get in the way, if you want to be sure, build it as root. [00:44]
mod6: however, fwiw, im looking at my build now, and I didn't, i built mine as a non-root user just fine. [00:45]
rinzler: hmm, well i'll see how it goes this time around. Thanks btw [00:46]
mod6: no prob. good luck. ping us and let us know how it goes. worst case, we can walk you through step-by-step, or I can even create a script out of the recipe to let you just execute that [00:46]
danielpbarron: in the gentoo instructions, we change cs-forupload to just cs, and dev is development. if you decide to start over with a whole new operating system (gentoo), i can direct you, rinzler [02:28]
danielpbarron: i mean, the hardest part is getting the right gentoo enviroment; eulora is the easy part [02:30]
danielpbarron: ubuntu is just fucked in general. at least with gentoo i can be sure you have the right stuff running [02:30]
rinzler: just got done with the walktest (took about 40 mins) I'll try gentoo if it still doesnt work [02:31]
danielpbarron: lol i haven't got walktest to work in a long while, but eulora still runs fine [02:32]
danielpbarron: but if walktest is working, i don't see why eulora wouldn't [02:32]
rinzler: well...same old issue. Ubuntu just wont work. Looks like I'm trying Gentoo. [02:42]
rinzler: "getting the right gentoo environment" meaning picking the right download? [02:43]
danielpbarron: heh [02:48]
danielpbarron: start here: http://danielpbarron.com/2017/gentoo-eulora-quest/ [02:49]
danielpbarron: should work if you follow it, but let me know, maybe they broke another thing [02:49]
danielpbarron: i'm sure i can fix it [02:49]
danielpbarron: rinzler, ^ [02:50]
danielpbarron: and you can probably do that from your ubuntu environment, the only difference would be your lilo command [02:50]
danielpbarron: but it should work from some general linux usb iso thing [02:51]
danielpbarron: and probably better that way so that your main hard drive shows up as /dev/sda [02:52]
rinzler: so you wouldnt suggest just going the vm route? [02:53]
danielpbarron: helllll no [02:54]
danielpbarron: just make a designated eulora machine [02:55]
danielpbarron: my recipe works on some <100 dollar ebay laptop [02:55]
danielpbarron: make sure it is a 64bit proc and has decent ram and an nvidia video card and you're good [02:55]
mircea_popescu: dedicated machine is good if possible yea [02:56]
mircea_popescu: i use it. [02:56]
danielpbarron: a ~20 nvidia card will get you a little under 20 fps which is usable in eulora atm [02:56]
danielpbarron: ~20 USD* [02:56]
danielpbarron: i've tested it on the dell latitude e6500 [02:58]
danielpbarron: not ideal, and if you can suggest a better model i'm all ears [02:59]
rinzler: okay so my machine already has two partitions, ubuntu and windows. [02:59]
danielpbarron: bleh [02:59]
danielpbarron: from what i've read, lilo is great for dual boots [02:59]
danielpbarron: but i don't know how to do that. but i suppose all of my instructions up to the lilo part would work [03:00]
danielpbarron: obviously substituting the right /dev/s [03:00]
rinzler: so the beginning, zeroing out my hard drive, that's not going to do anything to my current partitions right? [03:02]
mircea_popescu: he just meant delete the working dir and starting over [03:03]
rinzler: oh okay [03:03]
danielpbarron: rinzler, ah.. don't do that lol [03:03]
rinzler: lol [03:03]
danielpbarron: yeha if you're gonna dual boot, you will have to be carefull with all the /dev/sd*s [03:04]
danielpbarron: make sure it's the right drive and partitiion [03:04]
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron is used to the relative luxury of dedicated machines [03:04]
danielpbarron: srsly, so so much easier to get a dedicated machine [03:04]
mircea_popescu: i believe. [03:05]
danielpbarron: you can't pay less than 100 usd?? [03:05]
mircea_popescu: well not to try out a new game. [03:05]
danielpbarron: i mean it takes probably that much to get a decent thing going in eulora a this point [03:05]
danielpbarron: anyway i have to go atm, but i will respond to any questions when i get back [03:05]
rinzler: ok [03:06]
rinzler: i would nuke windows if it didnt have all my games [03:12]
rinzler: basically looking up how to add gentoo as a triple boot, so I suppose i'll be skipping some of the instructions [03:30]
lobbes: http://logs.minigame.bz/2017-08-31.log.html#t06:59:28 << I mean, if you're just trying to get a feel for the game there's always jurov's windows packages. They've worked for me on both windows 7 and 8.1 without a hitch. If interested in that route, check out: http://www.eulorum.org/Windows [19:52]
lobbesbot: Logged on 2017-08-31 06:59:28: <rinzler> okay so my machine already has two partitions, ubuntu and windows. [19:52]
lobbes: But it is true that for serious playing you should get an old box, slap gentoo on it and follow danielpbarron's instructions (this is what I also plan to do) [19:52]
mircea_popescu: a that's a point [19:54]
