How Do I Install This?


Recommended Posts

hi, I'm using Mandrake 10.1 right now and i want to play my windows games on it so i found this Cedega thing. How do i install it? The filename is called cedega_4.4.1-1.i386.tgz. I found the file online but I have no idea what site it was, otherwise I'd show you guys. I have been on windows for a long time so i also forgot how you become the administrator type thing in the terminal. If i can get this and my games to work, I will love you guys forever (i'm not gay) and I will never use windows for my own personal use again.

To become root type su then enter root password. To install cedega change to the directory where the file is then as root run

tar xzf cedega_4.4.1-1.i386.tgz  -C /

Thought Mandrake changed it name.....

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

yep, right after 10.1

10.2 = "Mandriva Linux Limited Edition 2005"

And to SDogg554,

Have you been to http://easyurpmi.zarb.org/ to set up extra sources...If I'm not mistaken, when I ran Mandrake, cedega was listed in rpmdrake...could've been because of adding those sources.

naraku9333's info will get what you want done but the extra sources are good to have.

Cedega is not free. *.tgz is a Slackware installation file. You want the *.rpm version. I think you can get the CVS code free, but it'll be a bit harder to set up. There's no GUI. You can pay $5 for 3 months if you want the full version.

It's a bit old, but this guide should work.

Try fixing the error based on the output above, and
run the script again, without paramaters (Eg: WineCVS.sh)
