New Game Release For All Zaurii And Linux Pcs

[Mickeyl]

Fixed that. Note that nowadays there are always two packages for a sdl game:
<foo> contains the generic stuff
<foo>-opie contains the opie specific stuff, i.e. .desktop file and pixmaps

I don't know much at all about non-Sharp ROMs and I would like to know the answer to this question. Isn't the difference mainly the directory structure as far as installation goes? This information would assist me with future projects.

No, the main difference is the version of the gcc used to compile the binarys and the use of soft float... your binarys will not work on OZ, or the pdaXrom properly.

If you are interested in this... I will attach a link here for you to set up OE, or you could use the oe-cross-sdk that is created with OE for this.

Some of the devs here make ipks for both... It also requires a different ipkg-build script.

I have OE set up on my laptop... but it doesn’t do much good with my damn dial-up connection! Sorry, I get a bit angry because I live about 800 feet from dsl... that they promised to fix for me over a year ago.

Thanks for fixing... and explaining the change.

okay, I installed the ipk using the package manager of pdaxrom, but for the life of me can't find where it is, or get it to run.  I installed it to "/"

maybe i am a retard, can i not use it with pdaxrom?

**edit**

I tried /home/user this time, and found it in /home/user/opt/QtPalmtop/bin

I'll get it in a bit

Or not.  When trying to run from the terminal, it tells me I am missing libqpe.so.1, and I have SDL 1.2.9.  Do I need a different version of SDL?  

I don't have a desktop icon, either

**edit**

I said to hell with the ipk, but still need that damned libqpe.so.1   so i guess that's where i am at, now.

libqpe.so.1 is a qt/e 1.5 library. pdaXrom uses X11 and doesn't have it.
since this app requires libqpe, then it will only run on qtopia based distros, ie sharp rom and opie and their derivatives... cacko, hentges, etc...

ah, gotcha.  well, at least I am not crazy.  Thanks.  Something learned, something gained

I did read afterwards on his site that I'd have to compile it myself for non-Sharp ROMs, but I've never had much luck using the native compiler.  I'll have to go ask over on the pdaxrom board about that, see what I am doing wrong there.

thanks again
