Linux feedback
Posted: 26 Feb 2011, 17:27
Finally got around to installing this one Ubuntu 10.10.
I've only had a few minutes to play with this, so expect more in-depth feedback shortly.
Downloaded the .jar, made it exec and ran it.
Install dialog and installation went as expected, except for one thing.
The JPortal shotcuts were not placed in the Games category (on the main menu), but was put in under Others.
No biggie.
Running the game has proven a bit more painfull.
The first attempts resulted in error messages in the terminal, and some Java processes hanging.
I killed the processes and resettet X Wins, and could start the game.
Unfortunately it ran very slowly, and froze in my first game after I declined a mulligan. Again I had to kill the process.
As I said above, I only had little time to play with this. I'll try and provide better feedback, once Iøve had a chance to tinker some more under the hood.
This was on a Thinkpad T43, 1.8Ghz, 1GB ram running Ubuntu 10.10
