Jag blir inte klok på detta
Försökte mig på igen att installera. Då jag följde råden i en "howto text" (se längre ner) så fick jag detta från terminalen:
"ulfen69@ulfen69-desktop:~$ /tmp/X-Plane-DVD-Install
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Whoah -- no matter how hard I tried, I failed to get a GLX visual. Something's seriously wonky on your machine.
ulfen69@ulfen69-desktop:~$ "
Vad göra nu? Det här var ju inte för en med måttlig vana av Linux
Jag har en AMD athlon XP 3200+
GeForce 5200. Test i Cedega säger mig att jag har rätt drivrutiner.

Kan texten nedan vara till nån hjälp?

X-System 8.21 / Installer 1.03-lin1-dvd
Linux release
X-System for Macintosh and Windows by Austin Meyer <
austin@x-plane.com>
Linux port by Joshua Wise <

Release date:
2005-12-03
HELLO! ************************************************************************
Hello X-Users!
Please read this file all the way through! It has some helpful hints!
Thanks!

INSTALLATION: WEB *************************************************************
The X-System now has an installer. Run the installer and point it at where
it should install, and it'll do the appropriate things. You may need to set
the installer as executable if it is not already set that way.
For optimization for your system, feel free to change the architecture in
the preferences box from Generic x86 to Pentium 3 or Athlon XP. These
architectures correspond to i686, pentium-3, and athlon-xp in previouos
builds.
For example:
$ gunzip X-Plane-820-Net-Install.gz
$ chmod +x X-Plane-820-Net-Install
$ ./X-Plane-820-Net-Install
There are presently two errata for the installer.
1) You may need to set the installed binaries as executable after
installation is complete. This can be done in much the same way that the net
install binary was set as executable previously.
2) Sometimes the installer segmentation faults on exit. This is a known
issue, and we are looking into it. No data has been corrupted.
INSTALLATION: DVD *************************************************************
The X-System now has an installer. Run the installer and point it at where
it should install, and it'll do the appropriate things. You may need to set
the installer as executable if it is not already set that way.
For optimization for your system, feel free to change the architecture in
the preferences box from Generic x86 to Pentium 3 or Athlon XP. These
architectures correspond to i686, pentium-3, and athlon-xp in previouos
builds.
For example:
$ ./X-Plane-DVD-Install
It is possible that your DVD may not have the appropriate executable bits
set. If this is the case, please copy the installer to a temporary location,
and set it as executable manually, as such:
$ cp X-Plane-DVD-Install /tmp
$ chmod +x /tmp/X-Plane-DVD-Install
$ /tmp/X-Plane-DVD-Install
There are presently two errata for the installer.
1) You may need to set the installed binaries as executable after
installation is complete. This can be done in much the same way that the net

2) Sometimes the installer segmentation faults on exit. This is a known
issue, and we are looking into it. No data has been corrupted.
RUNNING X-SYSTEM **************************************************************
The X-System apps are very easy to get running. cd into the directory in which
X-System is stored, and then run the binary corresponding to your architecture.
For example, if you are on an Athlon XP machine:
$ cd x-system/
$ ./X-Plane-821-athlon-xp
X-System should now run outside of its own directory. If you have
problems, please report the errors to <
linux@x-plane.com>, and try again
from inside the X-System directory.

ERRATA ************************************************************************
820 errata:
* QuickTime movies do not work, and likely will not until Apple ports it
to Linux - or until I write code to do ffmpeg stuff instead. (therefore,
the QuickTime Settings... option will provide unpredictable results.)
* At present, there is no working speech output support. Festival TTS
support is on the to-do list for a later version.
* Sometimes when the X11 cursor is supposed to be hidden, it instead shows
up as a white line.
* Sometimes plugins blow up entirely, or parts of the sim fall apart. If
you see this on your system, please contact X-Plane Linux support.
This should be fixed in X-Plane 8.16 and higher -- if you see this,
do not hesitate to contact X-Plane Linux support.
* Joystick POV hats are not correctly handled yet.
* Some users report that the left and right arrow keys are reversed.
POWERPC-SPECIFIC NOTES ********************************************************
PowerPC support is exceptionally beta. This was developed with the generous
donation of an Open Desktop Workstation from Genesi, who makes it. This
release only includes the subapps for the moment, while we work out some
performance issues. If it doesn't run on your PowerPC Linux machine, and
your machine is a G4 or higher, please contact X-Plane Linux support, and
we'll try to work it out with you.
X-Plane 8.2x does not yet have PowerPC support.
TROUBLESHOOTING ***************************************************************
If an X-System app complains that "It seems that you have moved X-Plane out of
the X-System folder!", what it is really trying to say is that it cannot
find the "Resources" directory (or some critical files therein). Make sure you
are running X-System from its directory, and if all else fails, reinstall it.
If an X-System app suddenly dies with the message "Killed", it is possible that
your system has run out of memory while running X-System. Enable swap and try
again.
If an X-System app suddenly dies (or refuses to start) with the message
"Illegal Instruction", it is possible that you are not running the appropriate
binary for your architecture, or that your architecture's binary requires
functionality that your CPU does not support. Try running a binary compiled
for an older processor (i.e., if you are trying i686, try i586 instead.) The
libstdc++ linked in may depend on more than that listed, so if you are
running the i586 binary, and you are still unable to run X-System, that may
be the cause. Contact technical support as listed below if you get this message,
and include the contents of /proc/cpuinfo.
If an X-System app refuses to launch, saying that it cannot find
libopenal.so.0, your system does not have OpenAL installed. Get an OpenAL
binary for your architecture. (or compile it from source. Really, X-Plane
doesn't care.)
If X-Plane sounds really weird, your OpenAL might be outdated. Upgrade it.
If X-Plane will not leave demo mode, please make sure that you have the
DVD mounted at one of the following locations:
* /mnt/cdrom
* /cdrom
* /media/cdrom
* /mnt/dvd
* /dvd
* /media/dvd
* /mnt/x-plane
* /mnt/xplane
TECHNICAL SUPPORT *************************************************************
The author of the Linux port has agreed to take technical support inquiries,
provided that they are properly formed. However, unfortunately the Linux
port author's time is limited, and he cannot make any guarantees as to
whether you will get a response.
PLEASE read the article at:
http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html
before emailing with a technical support question! QUESTIONS/BUG REPORTS THAT

DO NOT PASS GO, DO NOT COLLECT $200!
Please do NOT privmsg me on IRC. I idle there to hang out; if I am available
for support on IRC, I'll respond to your request in channel. Otherwise, I'll
probably ignore it, and you'll have to email me like everybody else does.
C'est la vie.
