Title: AH on Linux HOWTO
Post by: Conway on March 11, 2002, 11:59:20 PM

Hello all!

I've gotten AH to work on Linux, and wrote up a page about my experiences, and instructions on getting AH to work.
See it here (http://www.inimage.com/AH/AH_on_Linux.html)

Thanx +)


ermm is the $5 a month thing really neccessary?  I am an linux idjit...

I am going to be putting together a linux box probably in the next few weeks as a study tool, and i figure trying to get any of my games etc to work on it will be a good learning experience.

No, the $5/month thing is NOT necessary, in fact, it would work better (you'd get a more recent release) without it.
However, you will need to do some comiling / installing of winex on your own then. This is not hard -- usually just following the README's will work.

Also, note that the patch I provide requires you to get the source and recompile it. Without this AH's joystick support will be messed up. So you're forced to do the compile anyway instead of the $5/month thing :)
