**I searched the forum, all I saw was eduke32 crashing and compiling posts.**

I've made the complete switch to Ubuntu from Windows 7 (Pretty good so far). I was able to compile and run eduke32 with no real problems, but I am having trouble getting the HRP to automatically run. I can get it to run if I use the -g parameter in the terminal. It won't work if I don't do that, and I had it in the autoload folder when I wasn't using the -g parameter. According to the wiki site (http://wiki.eduke32....Duke32_on_Linux) it should work automatically like that.

Here is my eduke32.log file when I run from the autoload folder:

Here's my eduke32.log when I use the -g parameter with the files in the root of the directory (doesn't work with the files in the autoload folder):

Any help?

Enable 'autoload' folder.

How? There's no GUI for settings when you startup eduke like in Windows.

It seems that you have forgotten to install libgtk2.0-dev before compiling.
You can also edit eduke32.cfg and set NoAutoLoad to 0.

I tried to install it, Ubuntu said that it was already installed.
Edit: Oh and thanks, I'll try that now.

...There's no eduke32.cfg, I'll get one off of one of my other Windows computers.

Edit: Not working either.
Edit 2: I reinstalled that libgtk2.0-dev thing and recompiled the source code, the GUI is working now.

Still having a problem, the eduke32.cfg won't write still, and the autoload folder still won't work even though it's checked to be used.

Here's my log file currently:
 eduke32.log (1.25K)
Number of downloads: 216

eduke32.cfg is written to ~/.eduke32, and that's where you need to put your autoload folder IIRC.

Ah, you're right, thanks Plagman, That was on the Wiki site of building eduke32, I thought it meant the directory of eduke32... my bad.
Thanks.

There's most definitely a frontend gui on Linux.
