Hmmm, have you tried searching (via places menu since you're using 10.10) for World of Warcraft? If you can manage to get the search to find it, you should be able to see where it is located. Once...

Hmmmm I have my wow copied on a usb drive, so I haven't run it from the default wine location in quite some time, I assume I must have misremembered the path. So since you can see the .wine folder,...

This probably belongs in the wine subforum, but I'll try to help you out some :)

Wine creates a windows file hierarchy in the .wine subfolder in your home directory. Since it is hidden by default...

Managed to find one https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/663630

mhay, you should subscribe to this bug report so you are kept up to date on the status of the bug.

I'm definitly excited about the prospect of being able to buy games! :popcorn:

Have you tried running it from a terminal and see what (if any) error messages there are when it crashes?

Yeah, I don't really understand segfault errors at all, but I've read they usually are the result of bugs, so it might be a good idea to make bug report about this. I was actually planning on trying...

Unfortunately I'm all out of ideas, hopefully someone will reply with more knowledge. As a last question did you have any luck with installing the game using other methods (rather than installing...

Do you happen to be running the 64-bit version of ubuntu?

You can try to install the game following the UGA guide, although if you are running 32-bit you can skip the first part about installing...

Signal 11 is apparently related to segmentation faults, you can read up a bit about it on wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SIGSEGV.

How did you install Tremulous?

I haven't seen a...

My gut feeling is that this is probably a video card problem. Could you find out which video card your friend has, and how much memory? Also, go ahead and find out how much ram and processor power...

I had this problem with a usb keyboard, so if you happen to be using one too, I was able to "fix" the problem by plugging the keyboard into a different usb jack on my computer, ever since I changed...

As I recall, the issue was that certain user(s) were posting those commands in the 'absolute beginner talk' subforum to try and trick beginners. If I had seen that when I first started using ubuntu,...

There is no easy way to back up installed programs when trying out a new distro. I would try several live cds from different distros to see if any of them detects the mouse correctly, since...

It appears to me this is the most important section out of all the output. The part that really concerns me is this line:The touchpad is showing the equivalent line as
It almost seems that the...

I'm guessing since you omitted the dmesg output that it contained no useful information, which is troublesome. A quick search for sunplus innovation technology yields nothing useful either. Try...

I don't use a wireless mouse, but I'm guessing the one you are using has a transmitter plugging into a usb slot? One thing you might try is to plug the transmitter in, then run the command

This sounds like a fun idea, I'm downloading alien arena 2009 right now so I can get some practice in and not embarrass myself, never tried that game before :).

Even though I posted in this thread previously, I cannot seem to find the "other method" I was talking about back then, although I seem to remember it basically doing the same thing as another...

Most linux programs save their settings under a hidden folder in your home directory. To see the folder, you will have to show hidden files (I think its in the view menu but I'm not at my linux box...

I am also a World of Warcraft junkie (but mostly because my rl friends play it too) I have not checked out regnum, although I kind of want to now after reading so many people talking about it.

After some searching around, this seems to be a problem relating to the dvds themselves. This seems to work for some people though:
If doing that shows additional files on the cd that were not...

No, you are doing it correctly.


lines starting with "fixme:" are not actual error messages, they are notes to the developers that certain functions are not complete. I would guess from the...

Ah, the path would be
cd ~/Desktop/FOLDERNAMEwhere FOLDERNAME is the name of the folder you made on the desktop.

~ is just a shortcut for /home/USER by the way.

So I'm guessing the step that you are stuck on is this one:
The terminal should print out an error message of some kind, could you please post exactly what it says?
