I hope to think there more Linux than Mac users out there, so hopefully this will help those Linux users out there.

It took a bit to get working but here are the settings to get AW7 to work under Linux:

---------------

These instructions assume that all files are located in their default
locations. You will have to adjust if you drifted from the default.

Get this file:

http://webpages.char.../Postal2AW7.ini

and replace the existing file in:
/usr/local/games/postal2/ApocalypseWeekend/System

Put this file:
http://webpages.char...ombr/postal2aw7
in /usr/local/bin
and ensure it is executable by user, group, or other ownership
(i.e. chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/postal2aw7).

Remove the file (if it exists):
$HOME/.lgp/postal2/System/Postal2AW7.ini
where $HOME is the home directory of the user that wants to run AW7.

and run the game with postal2aw7 command located in /usr/local/bin.

All problems with the linux instructions can be sent to: kgroombr@charter.net



If possible, I would like to see these files and instructions included in the next version of AW7.

I never could get AW7 to work until somebody posted a fix for the Mac. I used information from that, and a little tweaking to get it to run on Linux.

I really have to give 95% of the credit to the person that did this for the Mac since it was that information that made AW7 possible for Linux.

Dude, linux is always free

the only distribtion (shit did i wrote that right? XD) you can actually buy is Suse, but you can still download it totaly legal, because gnu/linux stuff is always open source.
not like this windows crap or mac.

and hell yea linux is a hell of a stable OS.
