Re: The official "ZDoom on Linux" thread.

That did it! It is working quite well now. I also checked the skulltag.ini and saw that it had set vid_renderer=0. So, setting it the same
in zdoom.ini fixed the slowness/CPU issue.

Thanks!

Re: The official "ZDoom on Linux" thread.

Forgot to mention, that I have used skulltag on this same laptop for sometime and

Re: The official "ZDoom on Linux" thread.

Re: The official "ZDoom on Linux" thread.

OK, so GZDoom compiled fine. Thanks for getting me past that. Now, I am able to start and play. However, it is too slow to play. I ran top in another terminal and see that gzdoom is taking anywhere from 96%-98% CPU. Thus, I am suspecting there is something in either the video settings or something ...

Re: The official "ZDoom on Linux" thread.

Thanks for the feedback. I tried the easiest first. I renamed Xcursor.h which was found under /usr/include/X11/Xcursor However, the make now fails on finding the Xcursor.h.
