ubuntu and cedega dont play nice.

[abf]

i got cedega running on ubuntu (32bit) and well, i managed to install GTA:SA just fine, but it won't run. No errors, no nothing. so figured i'll start it in terminal and see the output

munky@lappy:~$ cedega
For language 'en' several language ids were found:
en_US - 0409; en_GB - 0809; en_AU - 0C09; en_CA - 1009; en_NZ - 1409; en_IE - 1809; en_ZA - 1C09; en_JM - 2009; en_ - 2409; en_BZ - 2809; en_TT - 2C09;
Instead of using first in the list, suggest to define
your LANG environment variable like this: LANG=en_US


that language "error" doesn't come up until after i press the "play" button, so i know its directly related to the game not launching, whereas the actual cedega interface works quite well.... ideas on how to resolve a possible conflict?


running Steam does not have that conflict, but rather something else:

edit: fixed this, needed to enable truetype. still gonna leave it as part of the thread for its informational value

i know it seems a little bit stupid, and forgive me for posting in the forum from my devil-machine, but have you thought about trying to change the setting from "en" to "en_US"?

i ran

"LANG=en_US cedega" and it coughed up some crazy python error and wouldn't even start the cedega client....so yeah, been there done that piemaster, thanks for trying though.

I had no issues running cedega in breezy. I got Pirates!, Civ4 and Tropico2 working very well. I'd suggest continue messing with the settings and check their forums. It took a little while for me to get those games working perfectly.

Also, I have an Nvidia card. I've had great success with this card. My ATI 9700 was terrible. nothing worked.

well, so far the onyl game i got to run successfuly is Roller Coaster Tycoon (shut up! i like pointless time wasting games like that). i think i figured out my CS:S/HL2 problem and currently installing those from DVD (like hell i am waiting 4 hours for em to download).

Sadly GTA:SA still crashes.... and i really wanna finish that game, i am like 3 missions away from completion. (haven't played since last summer)

You its sad that ATI just has pitiful Linux support. maybe now that AMD has bought them they will offer better driver support.
