Official ZDoom 2.1.7 downloaded straight from zdoom.org.

Also wait, I'm going to wipe ubuntu and install Xubuntu....so I'll give it another shot and see what the outcomes are.

EDIT: Got it working, thanks!

Hello everybody.

I just Downloaded the Source for Zdoom 2.1.7 (official one, not from svn), compiled perfectly and then I installed Timidity for the Sound.

(Oh, I should say that I started using Linux in May, so if this is n00b-ish, I'm Sorry)

The Whole point is that the music (In any IWAD) is heard, but hasn't got as much quality as in the Windows version

I do not know if I was very clear of this problem.... If anyone could help me, It would be Awesome.

Thanks in advance! =D

I'm wondering if a Ubuntu and/or Portage (Gentoo) repos should be set up.

Ok, I've been trying to compile the latest Zdoom SVN on Ubuntu 7.10. I followed all the instructions in the wiki, and I installed subversion. Here is my error:

Code: Select all

src/svnrevision.h is up to date at revision 566.
Package gtk+-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gtk+-2.0.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable

you may be looking for the package libgtk2.0-dev, at least that's what it's called in the debian repositories

You need libjpeg-dev

edit - If you are using ubuntu, you can find this kind of info here - http://packages.ubuntu.com/#search_contents
Debian users can find it here - http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages#search_contents
