yay! with -nomusic it worked like magic.
now if only music could be fixed...
The problem isn't really the music. For some reason, your system is just having trouble with file pipes. Music works 100% for me and others.
btw, speaking of Jim's patch - i couldn't apply it, patch complained about a malformed line or such..
Hmm.. I tried it and got the same error, too. Just stick with my patch, then. It works fine.
i agree. imho using linux sux mostly because to get a simple thing working, sometimes one has to do some dark mojo, and not to mention the time wasted researching and figuring out. unless one has already done that before..
(back to zdoom) i think someone (if not randy) should make a page that explains how to get it done, links to the latest source, patches, prerequisites, HOWTO compile and use that stuff, gotchas, troubleshooting - all in one piece..
The problem is, Randy hasn't reinstalled Linux on his machine since he did whatever (upgraded it or changed it or something). You can't really blame him for not fully supporting something he can't test and try himself.
