What's really funny is that I was running SSH onto my linux box... from the next room.
I could use some help though. The box is 667mhz and has all the appropriate drivers and the like installed. Both Wine and Cedega stutter when playing Starcraft, which I would think would run fine, as people with computers as slow as 700mhz report it running just fine.

Originally by: Sevarus James In the cedega GUI, get to the properties for EVE, and select 'Advanced Settings Overrides - Edit Settings'.
On the right hand side of the edit settings dialog there is a drop down for windowed mode for the game. Either manually put the resolution you want (if not listed by the dropdown), or select one of the settings that cedega 'sees'. (MAKE sure this matches what you selected for EVE's fullscreen resolution, or the cedega windowed mode will not match the 'edges' for EVE's settings.)
I cant seem to find that 'Advanced Settings Overrides - Edit Settings' anywhere. When I right click on my EVE entry in Cedega, I only get 'Edit Properties', 'Edit Profile' and 'Delete'. Edit properties brings me to the Icon Properties window and Edit profile takes me to the profile window with the 4 tabs General, Audio, Graphics and Joysticks.
Could you provide a screen shot of it?

If you are using the 5.2 or greater GUI, the the right click of EVE is fine. select properties and it will bring up a dialogue...from there select Advanced Settings Overrides > Edit Settings.
If you are using the older GUI (Which I'm guessing you are.) , the edit properties will get you to the same basic stuff. (The windowing modes, and DXGRAB stuff is on the first tab of the 'edit properties' if using the older GUI.) The NEW gui includes the games database settings stuff and the additional dialogues. (Just updating the 'engine' doesn't update the gui. To do that, there are steps on the transgaming site to update the GUI. ----- ------------

I wish I could help, but I don't play starcraft. The transgaming forums have some mention in that section of a few people having stuttering issues, but not all. Starcraft link ----- ------------

Edited by: Sevarus James on 06/07/2006 06:29:35 Wip, if you're seeing the skybox and the lines...then you're using the ATI drivers, and I don't have an answer for that. I use the nvidia drivers and thus not only no lines, but similar fps to the windows side.
If anyone here has a solution to the ATI issues, feel free to jump in. I'd be happy to know what the solution to that is as well, if for nothing else than to add to this thread's "fixes", and be able to post that to the transgaming side as a bug if 'no' fixes exist.
edit--btw, which version of cedega are you using? ----- ------------

No he means Wine. Latest CVS with some custom patches applied works. Tho not as good as Cedega.

Has anyone successfully started the new test client? version: 4539.
The installer works flawlessly from cedega, but the game will not start. No errors. System monitor indicates that wine doesn't even get going, and trying to run the .exe from the command line errors out with a gddb.py error. (Tells me this may be a cedega 'thing' specifically as that is cedega's new games database module).
While the current version of EVE is running 'mostly' without a hitch, this new test version IS the chinese 'dragon' unicode branch, and it WILL get implemented. If we can't even start the thing, we're going to be in trouble sooner than later.
If there are more of us that cannot even start the client, I'll open a ticket on transgaming's site. ----- ------------

Normally I think I'd be sweating bullets..however, after Kieron's teasing after E3 regarding linux/cedega/porting(?) in the post show blogs, as well as Wullfram(sp?) comments on the transgaming side in several linux site interviews in the past, I'm not as worried. I'll probably submit a bug report to transgaming (if one hasn't been made already), but my guessing is that we're not going to be in 'trouble'.
and yeah, yeah, yeah, I know all about the beginning part of the word "assume". ----- ------------

Would anybody be interested in porting EveMon over to linux? I find it the best character monitor out there, and am sad that I cannot use it on my desktop. Unfortunately it is written in C# with .NET Framework 2.0 so that makes it a bit difficult to run in Cedega or Wine (i.e. not at all). If someone is a wizz with Mono they might be able to run with it. I was just thinking that this would be a good project. It is the best Character Monitor software out there and open source.

Running, Linux 2.6.15-23-amd64-generic Ubuntu 6.06, Cedega 5.2.2
Haven't tried EVE in Windows in a long time, so I can't vouch for my experience in comparison, but I'm very happy with the game. With that in mind, can't really find anything wrong with it as far as audio or video-bugs.
My guess is that if I tweak the settings somewhat like suggested earlier in this thread my FPS could go up a bit. Average out in about 35-40 on a AMD64 +3200, 1Gb RAM and a Nvidia 7800GT. It doesn't look bad, but I'm sure I have a feeling I could do better.
My only complaint is the 408 years-problem. I see it everywhere, login screen, aggression, cluster shutdown notice. Is there anything I can do about that?

OS: Ubuntu 6.06 with Gnome-Desktop@1600x1200 GFXcard: Nvidia GeForce 7800 GS
Eve is running in every resoultion (1600x1200, 1280x1024, 1152x864 and 1024x768) when Cedega-Desktop is set to "No". Now, when i set the Cedega-Desktop to 1280x1024 and Eve to 1280x1024 and fullscreen, Eve is setting itself to 1600x1200 and fullscreen. 1600x1200 is the resolution of the Gnome-Desktop.
When i set Cedega-Desktop to 1280x1024 and Eve to 1280x1024 and windowed it is running fine, but with much lower fps ofc because of windowed mode.
Does anyone has a solution for how i can run Eve with Cedega-Desktop set to 1280x1024 and Eve set to 1280x1024 and fullscreen? Or some hints in which direction i have to look to find a solution?

Had this problem with 1280x800 cedega window. Here is my solution:
Open EVE fullscreen (with desktop in cedega properties set to "NO") and change eve's rez to 1280x1024. Once this changes 'fullscreen', then exit the game. Back on the desktop in the cedega properties, change to the 1280x 1024 rez and save. Restart eve. It should be desktop with proper rez. ---should be-- being key words. This works perfectly for me with 1280x800 (my preferred desktop rez--see my sig below). My native resolution is 1900x1200 so that could change things up.
Tip: Even if the resolution isn't in the desktop dropdown for resolution, you CAN manually type the rez you want in the box and it normally will take it.
tip#2: On most systems starting an eve fullscreen session in a cedega 'desktop' mode will offset the mouse. quick fix: with game in focus, 'alt-enter' to make it "window". (You'll see a windows 'bar' over the top of the game in the desktop. When you see that, 'alt-enter' again to "fullscreen" eve in the desktop window. The mouse should be centered.

Nope. That's a known bug/issue. Its been reported to transgaming, but as this one is not a 'showstopper', haven't seen it fixed yet.
Although its ugly, the timer still works properly, it just doesn't display properly.
Hopefully when this 'supposed' CCP+Transgaming stuff sees the light of day, these last issues will go away. (That is if Kieron wasn't just teasin' us "nixers". ----- ------------

Also, regarding the test client issues, I've opened a support request with Transgaming at the following link:

Is there anywhere a list of successfull setups, showing used hardware, distri, drivers, cedega and eve configuration (including prefs.ini).
If there is none, do you think it would be good to have one?

It would be a good idea. We'd need a sticky and a new thread though, or we'd have to keep bumping, and that would get kinda' what we've got here instead. Good info here, but a pain to look through. ----- ------------

I've had a similar thing going on here atm, Ubuntu 6.06 and Cedega 5.2.1, can get into game for a whole few minutes max then plinking into nothingness, no error etc.
Unfortunately I'm running ATI too, liney space on intro and a stuttering (very much like back in "the day" when Castor was released and people with slightly backward soundcards had to Ctrl>Alt>Shift>F12 and back again - yeah I know - not much good in a Linux distro - flips TTY's). And all this despite reading this thread in it's entirety.
Anyone have any more news on the "bin out" thing yet? Hate having to resort to Windoze again

Hello, just installed eve using cedega 5.2.3 and it works just fine. Only problem is I'm getting horrible fps in space. 20-30 no matter where I am( when not in a station).
I've tried the things that have been mentioned here but I see no increase or change.
This is my setup:
AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3400+ GeForce 7800 GS Audigy 4 Logitech mouse 1gig ram Ubuntu 6.06 64bit version
Any help would be great, gets pretty annoying to boot into windows all the time just to play Eve.

Edited by: Sevarus James on 19/07/2006 08:50:35 What resolution are you playing? desktop mode or fullscreen?
I get (in space) on average 25-45fps, however, I'm running a 7600gt at 1900 x 1200 fullscreen.
In stations getting 55-90fps (average) at that resolution.
One trick: turn powernowd OFF before launching cedega. (transgaming recommends this as well.) From a terminal: sudo /etc/init.d/powernowd stop
This will keep the powersaving modes from slowing the cpu.
Also, you can play with the scheduler settings, but if you are on a single core, leaving the scheduler as is should be fine. ----- ------------
