I just payed the money. Rather not have to fiddle with it too much to get my games working, I just want to play them.

It doesn't work for anyone, and the forum mods over at linux gamers don't have an answer other than "you didn't follow the tutorial right", which is not sufficient or correct. There is no answer yet.

[seethru]

If you want my opinion, do what I did and just pay the money. It's worth it, especially with cedega 5.0 coming soon.

[RAOF]

At least one problem is that gcc-4 will fail to compile cedega. You can try doing this:
sudo apt-get install gcc-3.4
CC=gcc-3.4
export CC
./WineCVS.sh

I can't verify that it works, 'cause of a problem with compiling 32bit code on Breezy64, but I think that that should allow you to install cedega.

[Tatah]

Doesn't work!!!

I need CVS Cedega!!!
Help Please!!!

[orgy]

i need help with CVS Cedega too, im having the same error every1 has.
And i dont wanna pay for Cedega 'cause i dont know if its going to work, i know theres a list of the compatible games but still i dont wanna play CSS and get low Frame per Second.

[Tatah]

Me too!!!
Wine can run CSS???

[seethru]

I play CS:S using Cedega, and it's smooth. Post your system specs and I'll be able to tell you if it's worth your trouble.

Hi...
To compile Cedega under breezy you can't use GCC 4.

Unfortunately the makefiles for Cedega don't use the "CC" environment variable (*bad people*), so that's why the solution above didn't work.

So I did this:

sudo unlink /usr/bin/gcc
sudo ln -sf /usr/bin/gcc-3.4 /usr/bin/gcc

(now do the compile of cedega)

sudo unlink /usr/bin/gcc
sudo ln-sf /usr/bin/gcc-4.0 /usr/bin/gcc

That should work.

L.

EDIT: OK it seems this does actually get cvscedega compiled fine, but it segfaults every time I try to run even the simplest .exe. Anyone know how to get this running on Breezy??

cedega isn't worth the 5$ a month.
I've been subscribing for 6 months and none of the games I own is working :
CMR rally, RBR rally,Racing legends, F1 challenge, Panzer general scorched3D, even UT sucks ( UT linux native version works nicely both with an ATI9600 and Nvidia 6600 )
cedaga is just a crappy plaster on a wooden leg.

in my experience, its more than worth the 5 bucks a month considering I can play the games listed below at a more than acceptable level (in most cases i can have my video settings just a notch under what i run on the windows box) : city of heroes, WOW, War3, neverwinter nights (although the linux client is available and runs better), EQ and EQ2, and finally guild wars.

YMMV.

[hndrcks]

EQ and EQ2

You have EQ2 running in Cedega?

Hi...
sudo unlink /usr/bin/gcc
sudo ln -sf /usr/bin/gcc-3.4 /usr/bin/gcc
(now do the compile of cedega)
sudo unlink /usr/bin/gcc
sudo ln-sf /usr/bin/gcc-4.0 /usr/bin/gcc
That should work.


yes: this let you pass gcc error, but
how did you manage libwine_unicode.so up to date error?!
even if I've installed libwine-dev I get this error :confused:

I have just installed, and got this message:

Installing launcher script ...
Packing sourcetree...
All done ... CVS installed

Installed as: cvscedega
Config path : <homedir>/.cvscedega


But when I try to run "cvscedega" there's no file found, if I do "whereis cvscedega" nothing appears, and if I try to go into "~/.cvscedega" that directory doesn't exist.

Where did it install anyway?

I agree with Slimb. I got a dozen games working with Cedega pay version. Did you check the rating list on these games on transgaming.com before paying for Cedega?
By the way Scorched3D have a linux Client.

Ive got the same problem. Does anybody have a solution

[handy]

You are on 32bit Breezy?

[MacV]

Try re-installing it.

[handy]

I installed a few days ago, following the this howto:

http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/CedegaCVSInstallation

I had one problem & that was an oversight on my behalf, once corrected It installed with no complaints.

I've found: $/home/handy/.cvscedega/

Contents follow:

handy@BirdFish:~$ cd /home/handy/.cvscedega
handy@BirdFish:~/.cvscedega$ ls
config drive_c reglog userdef.reg wineserver-BirdFish
config~ oldreg.md5 system.reg user.reg
handy@BirdFish:~/.cvscedega$

Does that look correct?

I tried 2 games that probably don't work on cedega anyway, so I don't know if it works?

The games that I tried were Carmageddon & GP4 ?

[EDIT:] To the best of my knowledge, the above 2 games have not been successfully run by anyone under Wine, CVS Cedega, commercial Cedega or dosboxer!

Any feed back is much appreciated,

Thankyou...

[christooss]

yes im on 32 bit breezy.

I found a bin dir in my home dir. It includes cvscedega. Wierd.

[jon_z]

Has anyone else tried using this (http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/CedegaCVSInstallation) link to install CVS Cedega? I have wine 0.9.3 setup properly to allow me to use Steam, so im not in the mood to risk breaking anything...

[dezgot]

I have the same missing cvscedega thing, even after reinstalling a few times. My solution is to reboot into windows... :cry:

And yes, everyone has used http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/CedegaCVSInstallation, it's just an archive of the howto on linuX-gamers.net.

[christooss]

there is a bin dir in your home dir. And there you go you have cvscedega in it.

Majbe it would help if ./configure would be run with usr/share prefix. Or something like that. Maybe others would say how this is properly done.

[derekd]

Need help installing Cedega 5.1, can someone help?

[handy]

People don't seem to have much success with the cvs cedega.

I have been using commercial cedega now for nearly 2 months.

Commercial cedega, is NOT the same software as the cvs cedega!!

I only use it to play Guild Wars, & Cedega 4.4.3, is the version of choice for GW. I am much happier playing GW, than wasting a lot of time messing around trying to get it to work under Wine (won't run) or cvs Cedega, where GW will almost run...:(

Follow this link if you are interested in GW & Cedega: (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=123715)

As I state in that thread, I am so glad that I coughed up, for the minimum sub' of $15 US. If I hadn't I'd still have to play GW on windoze...:rolleyes:
