I've tried to do the relevant research. My first attempt to install results in this error: +++++ERROR+++++ sh ut-install-436-GOTY.run Verifying archive integrity...OK Uncompressing Unreal Tournament version 436-GOTY Linux install............................ chown: separation of user and group with a period is deprecated ELF binary type "0" not known. Abort trap ELF binary type "3" not known. Abort trap The setup program seems to have failed on x86/glibc-2.1 Please contact Loki Technical Support at support@lokigames.com The program returned an error code (1) ++++++END RROR+++++ Assume with me that the relevant clue is this line: The setup program seems to have failed on x86/glibc-2.1 I've looked around and believe that glibc is a Gnu C Library...as distinct from the BSD C Library. Further, it seems obvious that I will need to install something Linux-related to get this game running. I've looked around through the ports tree, and have found the following: make search name=glib turns up a bunch of stuff....the most interesting thing, it seems, is this.... Port: linux-glib2-2.2.1 Path: /usr/ports/devel/linux-glib2 Info: Version 2.X Linux/i386 binary port of GLib R-deps: linux_base-7.1_5 The Makefile doesn't seem to pull in the R-deps: linux_base-7.1_5, but I could be misreading the Makefile. Looking at it a different way, I see that there is an option to install one of these: /usr/ports/emulators/linux_base* 6 is marked forbidden, so that is right out...leaving either 8 or 7.1_5. However, neither has a mention of glibc-2.1.x, only 2.2.x I guess my question is: do I need to do linux_base-7.1_5, and linux-glib2-2.2.1, or can I get by with only one or the other? That, or am I asking the wrong question? That said, I'd like to try to get Unreal Tournament running on Anna. Anna does have a custom kernel without Linux bits in it, so I assume that this module will load as needed: linux.ko Or should I use this: linux_enable="YES" in /etc/rc.conf I see in the archives from November that Karel J. Bosschaart used: linux-flashplugin-5.0r51 The official Macromedia Flash Player for Linux linux-gtk-1.2_2 RPM of the Gtk lib linux-png-1.0.14_2 RPM of the PNG lib linux-realplayer-8.cs2_2 Linux RealPlayer 8.0 from RealNetworks linux_base-7.1_2 The base set of packages needed in Linux mode All of these seem a bit much; most likely only the latter one is necessary. I'd like to get away with only installing what I absolutely need, which I hope is just the /usr/ports/devel/linux-glib2 port.
