S_Init: Setting up sound.
Sound init failed. Using nosound.
How to get it to happen?
- Fresh install of Lubuntu 22.04. Easiest is by VirtualBox, but of course my real use case involves a real computer
- Make sure to give the virtual machine enough video memory to be able to start GZDoom. In my case I picked 32 MB.
- Once everything is updated and the VirtualBox guest additions are done (if using VirtualBox), download and install GZDoom for Ubuntu from the main website (https://zdoom.org/downloads)
- Trying "sudo dpkg -i ~/Downloads/gzdoom_4.10.0_amd64.deb" at first may actually give out errors (apology for the language):
Code: Select all
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of gzdoom: gzdoom depinde de libsdl2-2.0-0; dar: Pachetul libsdl2-2.0-0 nu este instalat. dpkg: error processing package gzdoom (--install): probleme de dependențe - se lasă neconfigurat
- So I had to install libsdl2-2.0-0. I did, also after running "apt --fix-broken install" (is this due to the shitty Lubuntu distro setup?)
- Then I finally installed GZDoom
- Now I can run GZDoom, but it has no sound. This isn't a problem with other ports (I tried my Eternity built from source though).
