I was branding the binary. Last night I was poking around in Lokigames site and found that the setup program is an open source project. It looks like it's a gui that copies some files off the cd and creates an uninstall script. Like you said, I tried to manually do what the setup program did. I just copied all the files from bin directory of the cdrom to my harddrive and ran it from there. I also had to set up a few links. Now it works fine*. * 12.5 fps, no sound. I'm using pcm0 and as I heard on this list, that doesn't work. I'll have to switch to snd0. 12.5 fps hurts. I am able to get 25 fps under windows. I am running a low end machine: 266 PII, 64 ram, tnt1. I'm running FreeBSD 3.3.3 and Xfree86 3.3.3.1. I followed the tutorial at http://www.freebsdzine.org/199907/features/tnt.html to set up GL. I also installed the the linux_glx port. Is there anything I did wrong to get such low fps, or is this just how it is till Xfree86 4.0? Thanks for you suggestions :) Once I get this all sorted out I plan to write a little how to about this.
