On the subject of Running Linux games under emulation: > Both Myth II and Heroes of Might and Magic III fail with bad > system call errors. Let me give the details just for Heroes - they are similar for Myth II. There's anecdotal evidence that it fails on a lot of machines. I personally tested it on a 3.2-RELEASE and a 4.0-CURRENT machine. The game I am trying to run is installed from ftp://ftp.linuxberg.com/pub/Loki/heroes3/heroes3-demo-x86.sh I had to carry out a brandelf -t Linux on the resulting executable. > Please also supply: > o) What version of freebsd you are running # uname -r 4.0-19990715-CURRENT or 3.2-RELEASE > o) When the last time you installed the linux emulation package was. It's a recent installation of linux_base (< 3 weeks) or linux_base-5.2 from several months ago. > o) any diagnostics printed at console or in the terminal you > started the programs from # ./heroes3_demo zsh: invalid system call (core dumped) ./heroes3_demo > o) the end of a ktrace # linux_ktrace 19431 heroes3_demo RET linux_personality 0 19431 heroes3_demo CALL geteuid 19431 heroes3_demo RET geteuid 12010/0x2eea 19431 heroes3_demo CALL getuid 19431 heroes3_demo RET getuid 12010/0x2eea 19431 heroes3_demo CALL getegid 19431 heroes3_demo RET getegid 20/0x14 19431 heroes3_demo CALL getgid 19431 heroes3_demo RET getgid 20/0x14 19431 heroes3_demo CALL ogetrlimit(0x3,0xbfbfd020) 19431 heroes3_demo RET ogetrlimit 0 19431 heroes3_demo CALL osetrlimit(0x3,0xbfbfd020) 19431 heroes3_demo RET osetrlimit 0 19431 heroes3_demo CALL getpid 19431 heroes3_demo RET getpid 19431/0x4be7 19431 heroes3_demo CALL linux_newuname(0xbfbfd028) 19431 heroes3_demo RET linux_newuname 0 19431 heroes3_demo CALL #174 19431 heroes3_demo PSIG SIGSYS SIG_DFL 19431 heroes3_demo NAMI "heroes3_demo.core" That CALL #174 looks interesting.
