Cannot get it to work on Linux

After getting the source through SVN (svn co svn://code.srb2.org/SRB21094 ./srb2), changing to the right directory (cd ./srb2/trunk/src), and telling it to compile (make LINUX=1), I get the following output:

After adding srb2.srb to the release folder, running the binary (../bin/Linux/Release/lsdlsrb2) results in the following:

Error: W_InitMultipleFiles: no files found

Am I doing something wrong? I'm running fully up-to-date Arch Linux on a ThinkPad T61p laptop. Googling the "File Li not found." error (with quotes) didn't turn up any results and the only results from Googling "Error: W_InitMultipleFiles: no files found" are in a foreign language. Google's translation of the later error searchs result seems to indicate that it's not for an unrelated issue. MarkGyver 06:43, 30 October 2008 (UTC)

You said that only srb2.srb was copied, what about other files listed at http://trac.srb2.org/browser/SRB2109/src/d_main.c?rev=589#L873 LoganA 19:42, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

I actually copied all the files from the windows version, as extracted from the .exe on the site using Wine. MarkGyver 21:46, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

Well, I would ask you to try "make clean" and "make LINUX=1 ECHO=1", and and ask for Alam in the chatroom irc://irc.esper.net/srb2fun for help/ LoganA 02:25, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

"make clean" worked great! Thanks! Now the only issues seemto be that at least one video mode not a multiple of 320 x 200 don't work and that it suddenly crashed while I was typing this (not trying full screen yet), but IIRC, windowed mode has always been problematic on all platforms, so I can't really complain.
