Ok thanks Edward,
now supertux runs but whithout sound.
Is there any way to fix the sound?
I tried reinstalling te game, but still same problem.
Anyone?..
After some searching I found this on the Supertux Wiki:
After running the configure script without any options and compiling the source in the supertux-0.1.3.tar file, SuperTux crashes with the error ‘Couldn’t load musicfile’, and reports the filename with a complete absolute path (which is correct – SALCON.mod). Bug produced with a Slackware 9.1 system. -> Your SDL_mixer library is probably compiled without mikmod support or you grabbed 1 of the versions where mikmod support was broken.
And I found two bug-reports about the same problem. Here and here.
So you can try to update SDL_Mixer or downgrade it. Could you
please tell me which version of Supertux and SDL_Mixer you have.
I have SuperTux 0.1.3 version. And I wouldn’t know how to check which version of SDL_Mixer I have.
I’m a newbie in linux.
So can you please tell me how to check this?
thanks in advance
I would recommend to upgrade SDL_mixer.
Go to Software Search, enter SDL_mixer and your openSUSE version.
Look for 1.2.8 or higher. Click on the One-Click Install button.
Follow the installation instruction. If all goes well SDL_Mixer will be installed.
I’m sorry that didn’t work out for you.
But there’s something we haven’t tried yet.
We haven’t looked if the file is actually there. Open a terminal and type:
file /usr/share/supertux/music/SALCON.MOD
If it returns
/usr/share/supertux/music/SALCON.MOD: Fasttracker II module sound data
The file exists and it’s still a SDL_Mixer problem.
Try to update supertux to version 0.3.x.
You can install this through the Software Search.
This release uses openAL instead of SDL_Mixer.
But if it returns:
/usr/share/supertux/music/SALCON.MODasd: cannot open `/usr/share/supertux/music/SALCON.MOD' (No such file or directory)
The file isn’t there. And you need to find the file somewhere and place it in /usr/share/supertux/music/.
Ok thanks for your reply Edward.
The file SALCON.MOD is in place.
So I installed supertux 0.3.13 but now I get an other error trying to open it?
Here is the outcome in console:

I came across the same package and discovered that it is broken.
There wasn’t an other 0.3.x package for openSUSE 11.2. So I looked
for packages for openSUSE 11.1. (And with success:))
To get it working install Supertux 0.3.2-10.1 from here.
If all goes well, you can run Supertux with the command:
supertux2
Note: This is a development release. It (might) contain bugs.
There are some sound files missing. Don’t worry you can download them from here, here, here and here.
Once downloaded you need to place them all in /usr/share/supertux2/sounds/.
If you’re missing more sound files go to Supertux’s SVN Repository.
And download the missing file(s).
If you want to get rid of the Supertux development logo.
Just go to /usr/share/supertux2/images/engine/menu/ and rename logo.png to logo_dev.png.
Sorry to bother you again, but now installed supertux 0.3.2-10.1 for Suse 11.1 but now I get the following message trying to run it?

But everything is in slowmotion.
Even my cursor moves in slowmotion!
Is this a video card problem?
I have an onboard GeForce 7025/ nForce 630a videocard?
It could be a video card problem. Supertux 0.3.x uses openGL, so it needs direct rendering to run smooth. To check if direct rendering is enabled run:
glxinfo | grep "direct rendering"
If it returns “direct rendering: No” the chance is big that you don’t have the correct driver installed.
To install the driver follow this howto. Get the nVidia driver from here.
If this doesn’t work you can follow a difficult tutorial here.
Remember that if you install a driver, you need to reboot the system!
I have again a problem with supertux
The kids I think changed the resolution or something in the Supertux options menu. And when I start supertux now my monitor goes black. This is the outcome :

korbes@linux-g5zf:~
Is there a config file for supertux which I can modify? Without runnin the game?
And which resolution shoul I choose? cause I think my monitor cant manage 1432x845?
Most of these games create a directory in the home folder that holds configurations and other game data. They are generally hidden directories (ie they start with a period) You can browse to your home and set View-Show Hidden checked. Now all hidden should be shown. Look for folder like .supertux. Delete it. This should bring things back to default.
You’re right gogalthorp, but he uses Supertux 0.3.2-10.1.
That means he need to remove the folder .supetux2.
Remember that this will also delete your progress.
To prevent this, just remove the file config in /home/<USER>/.supertux2/
I had a problem with my machine so I reinstalled Suse 11.2 all over again.
And after installing supertux svn as you said I get now this message:
korbes@linux-ouow:~> supertux2

Why did it work the first time and it won’t work now?
