When trying fullscreen graphics games

(that use OpenGL and SDL)

the screen goes black, goes into X console and says something like,
'running some script' or something..

and the games dont run.

anybody?
thanks

...AND Pup 431 can not see my wireless card..!

hi,

anyone have this phone?

It's good, 2 cameras, and can run some good games.

it's a couple of yrs old - get it on ebay for $89, new.

when running Quake, can it load maps and how are the controls..?

hope someone knows..
thx a million
Wally

EDIT- ok, maybe this belongs in the 'nothing to do ...

i have the regular 915gms integrated graphics,

no fancy card.

good luck on tests


yeh, that's the fix, alright. (Quake 1 runs like a champ, same with Cube, but this game, no go...hm.)

hey

I would LOVE to get this game working for Pup 431..

will it work?

and I tried downloading it many times, keeps timing out..

help!
thx

EDIT-- i managed to download it. i get this error when running
from console:libstdc++.so.6 GLIBCXX_3.4.11 (is not there)

i dont have a fancy grafx card ...

hey thanks, Lobster!

I appreciate it.

I read yours. It is quite thought provoking and avant-garde, indeed.
I liked "get behind me, Buddha."

Yeah, SF is great.

My fave authors to be Thomas M. Disch, Bradbury, thats all i can think of for now.

Day of the Dog
by Walter W.
It was your average Tuesday. Well, not exactly average. What ended up happening altered the course of human history as we know it, so one could hardly call it average. It was seemingly an ordinary day, and no one could have predicted or expected what was to take place ...

is it sort of like a catch-22, as it were?

well, thank you for your help.

I will try your suggestions.

I'm running little BASH scripts that I wrote myself.

They don't really seem to multitask, they just do what i described,
run and ctrl-c or z has no effect.

A real app does work however.

i hope this answers Beems question.

I'd like to have say, my scripts running 2 or 3 at a time..

thx

Thanks a million, Nooby!

It worked.

Hey Nooby, what happenned to that little picture of you next to your name..? It was funny.

I switched X terminals using CTRL-ALT-F2, and got
this screen,

PuppyPC login:

What do I do now?

serious question, here

I read that to multi-task a program from Linux,
all you have to do is type the program name
and then a '&' after the name and enter it from
the command line.

Supposed to, run the program in the background.
But I try this from Puppy, and it does do something
different, it runs the program and it ...

thanks brothers,

but i kinda give up on this one.

dunno, if i have the werewithal, I'll try again.

cheers

ah,

i couldn't be more serious.

good point about the calculators, though.

** yeh, and 3D grafx should definitely be made
standard, or built-in, so one does not have
to install xorg/dri pets..

that's good idea

isn't it supposed to be

#!/bin/bash

so you can run the script without having to type './'

it won't work on mine.

Gracias a million, Gustavo!

it worked

i think a re-release of 431 with Audacity built-in would be good.

and throw Jackbeat in there, too.

and trim some fat away, like lesser used apps, like have only 1 calculator, or something oh and Gimp built-in would be good too.

Remember, it's all in a name.


Give a dog a bad name and you may as ...

i like Thai - Spicy noodles with chicken.

it is kind of like Chinese chicken chow fun, but with baby tomatoes and some different spices, basil i think and it is really good!

is there an easy way to change the standard '#' prompt i get
in Pup 4.3.1 console mode?

i want a nice 'Wally>', you know?

also, i try 'login' command and I get 'Puppypc login' in response.
i type anything then it asks for a password.

such a noob question...
