Problems compiling and running on Debian Linux

cath · Post by **cath** » Fri May 25, 2007 4:28 pm

I gave up making this run properly on Windows and have now resorted to my Linux box. However, when I run ./autogen.sh, I get a few messages I don't like.

at the beginning:
--------------------------------
+ Running aclocal: configure.ac:250: warning: macro `AM_PATH_GTK_2_0' not found in library
configure.ac:270: warning: macro `AM_PATH_GTK' not found in library
configure.ac:298: warning: macro `AM_PATH_ESD' not found in library--------------------------------

and at the end:
--------------------------------
SDL support ...................... : none
FBDev DGA support ................ : yes
XFree86 DGA support .............. : yes
XFree86 VidMode support .......... : yes
Using PowerPC emulator ........... : yes
Enable JIT compiler .............. : yes
Enable video on SEGV signals ..... : yes
ESD sound support ................ : no
GTK user interface ............... : no
mon debugger support ............. : no
Addressing mode .................. : real
Bad memory access recovery type .. : siginfo
--------------------------------

The text in bold is what I don't like very much. What can do I need to install for these to work?

I went ahead and compiled it anyway. I didn't get the graphical configuration tool (does that exist for Linux?) and when I load it up (after configuring it manually) I get the grey screen, no happy mac and 100% cpu usage. It has been sitting like that for 5 minutes now. Help?

Hi,

These errors might be avoided by
-Downloading, compiling and installing SDL (http://www.libsdl.org)
-installing the gnome development packages (gtk error)
-installing the esound development packages (esd error)

But I don't know if the current cvs code is error-free.

You can also download a pre-build executable in rpm form from the developers website.
