While I am able to send to the list I might as well make use of it :) I've been trying out some games for my kids to play, and I believe I've heard of FreeOrion (or similar) before. Trouble is it won't work for the life of me... When I first ran it I got this message: Failed to initialize GEM. Falling back to classic. Assertion failed: (0 != this->mask_), function posix_charset_matcher, file /usr/local/include/boost/xpressive/detail/core/matcher/posix_charset_matcher.hpp, line 40. Abort (core dumped) So I tried updating and went through all the issues of changing openal in the process (something which I had been delaying), and finally found the message had changed to this: /libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libopenal.so.0" not found, required by "libalut.so.1" So, in the interests of science I decided to simply link libopenal.so to libopenal.so.0, and I got back to the old message again. Searching on google hasn't revealed anything either. I'm running FreeBSD-RC2 AMD64 (I know... I have to update to RELEASE. I'll be doing that as soon as I get a replacement HDD in this unit here - this one's on its last legs).
