quake2

[robinpv]

Hi,

I am facing below problem in running quake2.
I have built the rootfs for beagle board with quake2 package.
Please tell if any other steps need to be taken.
Should the Linux kernel need dsp support for quake to run ?

Regards,
Robin

I am also facing the same problem. I downloaded quake2 package from
opkg install command. I tried installing quake3 but it seems to fail
due to a dependency package not being available in the repo. What are
the correct repos for opkg? I am also noticing that package feed
browser on angstrom website doesn't match the list of packages in
opkg. Is it because of wrong default repos?

This is what we do, bootargs looks as shown below

setenv bootargs omapfb.mode=dvi:800x480MR-16@60 omapdss.def_disp=dvi
omapfb.vram=0:8M,1:4M console=ttyS2,115200n8 root=/dev/mmcblk0p2
rootwait rootfstype=ext3

Hope you have proper Filesystem Image built for quake.

(1) After booting, login as root
(2) /etc/init.d/gpe-dm stop
(3) cd /usr/lib/quake3
(4) ./run.sh

Let me know if this helps.

Regards,
Khasim

Hi,

1. I have modified the beagleboard-demo-image.bb file to include quake
game, as below.

IMAGE_INSTALL = "\
${XSERVER} \
${ANGSTROM_EXTRA_INSTALL} \
task-beagleboard-demo \
task-base-extended \
ioquake3 \
quake1 \
quake2 \
sdlquake \

2. Then, bitbake beagleboard-demo-image
3. Running quake3 gives
root@beagleboard:/usr/lib# ioquake3.arm
ioq3 1.35 linux-arm Jan 15 2009
----- FS_Startup -----
Current search path:
/home/root/.q3a/baseq3
./baseq3

----------------------
0 files in pk3 files


pak0.pk3 is missing. Please copy it
from your legitimate Q3 CDROM.


Point Release files are missing. Please
re-install the 1.32 point release.


Also check that your Q3 executable is in
the correct place and that every file
in the baseq3 directory is present and readable.
You need to install Quake III Arena in order to play

4. Running quake2 gives

Quake 2 -- Version 3.21+r0.16
Debug
using /home/root/.quake2/baseq2/ for
writing
couldn't exec
default.cfg
couldn't exec
config.cfg
Console
initialized.

------- sound initialization

------------------------------------
------- Loading ref_soft.so
-------
LoadLibrary("ref_soft.so") failed: No such file or
directory
Refresh

recursive
shutdown
Error: Couldn't fall back to software refresh!

5. Running sdlquake gives
root@beagleboard:/#/etc/init.d/gpe-dm stop
root@beagleboard:/usr/lib# sdlquake
FindFile: can't find gfx/pop.lmp
Playing shareware version.
FindFile: can't find gfx.wad
Error: W_LoadWadFile: couldn't load gfx.wad

Is the steps that i have followed for adding the quake game correct ?

I created the rootfs from the below link, selecting quake game
http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/narcissus/
But even with that i am getting same error

Regards
Robin
