Is the devteam going to come out with a linux version?

[robberguy189]

I have a netbook, and when I play with wine I lag. Is a linux version of aos going to be released? If so when?

[USABxBOOYO]

Ben has not said anything about this.

[robberguy189]

I'm guessing that means no.

The only way currently to do it is to install via Wine and make a script to run it. You still wont be able to run it from the browser, though.

Of course, i havent tried installing spadille thru wine...

EdwardR was working on a Mac port via Wine, might be worth requesting a Linux version from him.

The opengl client could be linux and Mac compatible.

@robberguy:

What exact kind of lag are you dealing with, and what distro are you using? Are you continuing to move in the direction of the last movement key you pressed after you release it? If so, try adding "killall ibus-daemon" to your AoS startup script before the "wine client.exe -$1" line, and "ibus-daemon -d" after the client.exe line. This stops and restarts a keyboard-management program that seems to interfere with AoS. (You can see if it's running in the first place with "ps -A | grep ibus-daemon", or by using any process-listing program, such as Gnome's system monitor, to look for a process called "ibus-daemon").

It should run better when mat^2 releases his OpenGL client.

[matpow2]

There will be a native Linux version.

[robberguy189]

ok, thanks.

But is there an ETA?

And my lag is not like what Rimbecano described.
