ok i just got me ubuntu and its great and im unfamiliar with the vo installer thigny its a .sh file and i don't know how to use it

thank you in advance

Well the easiest way to explain it is to open a console (cli) and type:

Lord~spidey@hiscomputer~ $ sh /path/to/vendetta-linux-installer.sh

(note: the command is everything after the $)

So if you just downloaded it to your home directory the command would be "sh vendetta-linux-installer.sh". The rest of the install should be pretty straighforward. Once it is installed you can use the same console and type:

Lord~spidey@hiscomputer ~ $ bin/vendetta

there are other "fancy" tricks with chmod and such but that may require a little explaining. You can also make a desktop icon to launch the app but that would take a little explaining as well. Let us know if you have any other questions.

it does'nt work

At what step does it stop working?

lordspidey@lordspidey-desktop:~$ sh /home/lordspidey/Desktop/vendetta-linux-installer.sh
Verifying archive integrity... All good.
Uncompressing Vendetta Online for Linux..............................................................................................................
--- Vendetta Online by Guild Software ---

This is the Linux distribution of Vendetta Online. It requires that you
have hardware 3D acceleration set up using OpenGL, preferably with GLX on
your X server. You will also need about 200 megabytes free in your home
directory.

Every time Vendetta is run, it actually runs an update program which
downloads and stores new game content files in your home directory under
~/.vendetta/.

If you would prefer to store the game data in a different place, please
abort this script, make a directory where you'd like to store the game,
create a symbolic link with ln -s <directory> ~/.vendetta, and make sure
your regular user account has permission to write files there.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

*** Installing Vendetta Online for user "lordspidey" ***

This script will install Vendetta Online inside lordspidey's home directory.
It will also install an executable called 'vendetta', which runs the game,
in your path. We recommend adding /home/lordspidey/bin to your path and placing this
file there, but you can put it wherever you'd like.

Are you sure you want to do this [Y/n] read: 36: arg count

You need to install gtk 1.2.

sudo apt-get install libgtk1.2

now I've got driver problem

lordspidey@lordspidey-desktop:~$ bin/vendetta
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".

Then you need linux-restricted-drivers and nvidia-glx. Possibly some more stuff; I forget. I usually have to google for "ubuntu nvidia glx" or something to figure it out.

And you need Load "glx"

In your xorg.conf

ok im an absolute noob with linux and where is xorg.conf located

Okay, the location is: /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Somewhere in the beginning of the file there is a probably a line: # Load "glx"

Where you need to delete the Hash (#)
