Hi
I have just finished porting Runes of Avalon for Linux. Can you test this for me and let me know if there are any problems.
http://www.anawiki.com/download/runes_of_avalon.php?os=linuxIt is tar.bz2 file, but I am working on Install Jammer setup file.

Worked fine here, runs really smooth on ubuntu, 2ghz celeron 512mb geforceFx PCI.
great graphics, sound and presentation to the game btw!!
Well done!
One small thing i noticed (kind of an oversight rather than a bug) was my mouse is wireless and ran out of battery. I could not quit the program, because i needed a mouse to do so. Tried esc taskswitch and alt-f4 but none worked in full screen (except dropping out of gnome!).. So it could do with an escape key option.
You also aught to incluse a readme-install to tell people that they need to set the installer's permissions to executable after downloading (otherwise it may confuse some linux noobs, it had me confused for about a minute or 2 too as it was asking which program should open it. (However, I quickly slapped myself!! :)
edit
found one more thing.. the order now button doesnt work (i assume it is supposed to bring up firefox :/

I ran it and played around without any problems. All I needed to do was change file permissions (sudo chmod 777 <installation file>) and then open it with the gDeb package installer. Heh, its so easy that a 16 yearold can do it :-) ... everything is shiny, it runs smoothly and yes it has sound.
Software
- Ubuntu Dapper Drake (6.06) Fairly messy installation, haven't tinkered with anything too serious though...
Hardware
- Dell Dimension 3000. Integrated CPU and sound with onboard graphics.
- Intel Celeron processor, <3.0GHz
- 512MB DDR RAM

Wireless mice are st00pid :P
BTW, try using CTRL + ALT + F1 to close it. That will put you out of the GUI and you'll have to enter your username and password again. Once you've logged in, try the "ps -e" command. See which PID the game is running as and then type "kill <insert games PID>" to close it ;)

Aye, Stoopid but handy 4 laptops.
(xcept when out of batteries:)
