''Last checked (dependencies reviewed) (r1571): 9. June. 2008 by [wiki:BenjaminKnecht Beni] on Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy Heron)''

Unfortunately there is not yet a Debian package available for Orxonox. We're eager to release one, though.

== Dependencies and third party libs ==

For developers we recommend to install the latest version of [http://ogre3d.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=412&Itemid=132 Ogre]. However, you might run into problems compiling Ogre.

Packages: cmake, libogre-dev, libois-dev, libenet-dev, libboost-filesystem-dev, libboost-thread-dev, libfreeimage-dev, libzzip-dev, liblua5.1-0-dev, tcl8.4-dev

To install use the following command or just use your favorite packet manager.
{{{
  $ sudo aptitude install build-essential cmake libogre-dev libois-dev libnet1-dev libboost-thread-dev libfreeimage-dev libzzip-dev libenet-dev libalut-dev libvorbis-dev liblua5.1-0-dev tcl8.4-dev
}}}

== Get our source ==
Check out the source via anonymous subversion login. This will download the whole project to the directory orxonox-dir.
{{{
$ svn co http://svn.orxonox.net/orxonox/trunk orxonox-trunk
}}}
You won't be able to commit your own code (check in) with the anonymous subversion repository. You have to ask us for a username/password combination. If you already have an account, check it out like this:
{{{
$ svn co https://svn.orxonox.net/orxonox/trunk orxonox-trunk
}}}
You will be asked for your username and password, that you got from us.

We have a seperate data repository. Download it via SVN as well. For instance use this command:
{{{
$ svn co http://svn.orxonox.net/data/Media Media
}}}

== Compile ==

{{{
$ cd orxonox-trunk
$ cmake .
...
$ make
...
$ ./run
}}}

If you get errors running cmake you most certainly forgot to install a package. Run ./cmakeclearcache after you installed the missing packages and run cmake again.

If ./run doesn't work check out ''bin/orxonox.ini'' and compare the given data-path with the one you downloaded the data repository to. If the paths don't match, change it in the orxonox.ini and try ./run again.

== Possible Bugs ==
=== Graphics ===
Using the "radeon" driver with your ATI graphics card (on Gutsy) will result in ugly shadow bugs in Ogre. Use flgrx instead.

=== Ogre ===
If you haven't installed Ogre with the package manager, you'll have to change the path in ''orxonox-dir/bin/plugin.cfg'' from ''/usr/lib/OGRE'' to ''/usr/local/lib/OGRE''.

=== Ubuntu Versions ===
Installing Orxonox was tested on Ubuntu Dapper Drake (6.06), Edgy Eft (6.10) and Feisty Fawn (7.04).

=== Installing the Libraries ===

{{{
wraith user $ sudo aptitude install libsdl1.2-dev libsdl-image1.2-dev libsdl-ttf2.0-dev libsdl-mixer1.2-dev libsdl-net1.2-dev libqt4-dev libglut3-dev libglew-dev libopenal-dev libvorbis-dev libavformat-dev libcurl3-dev liblualib50-dev
...
}}}

=== Installing developer tools ===

{{{
wraith user $ sudo aptitude install subversion automake1.9 g++
}}}

=== Getting the Source & Data ===

Check out the source and Data via svn anonymous, this will download the hole project to the directory orxonox-dir
{{{
wraith user $ svn co http://svn.orxonox.net/orxonox.OLD/trunk orxonox-dir/trunk
wraith user $ svn co http://svn.orxonox.net/data/trunk orxonox-dir/data/trunk
}}}
You won't be able to commit (check in) anything with the anonymous repository. You have to ask us for user/pass combination. If you have already an account check it out like this:
{{{
wraith user $ svn co https://svn.orxonox.net/orxonox.OLD/trunk orxonox-dir/trunk
wraith user $ svn co https://svn.orxonox.net/data/trunk orxonox-dir/data/trunk 
}}}
You will be asked for user name and password, that you have from us. 


=== Compiling ===
Just change into the trunk directory, execute configure and make....
{{{
wraith user $ cd ./orxonox-dir/trunk/
wraith user $ ./autogen.sh
wraith user $ ./configure
...
wraith user $ make
}}}

=== Playing ===
{{{
wraith user $ cd ./orxonox-dir/trunk/src
wraith user $ ./orxonox
}}}
Select the data file orxonox/data/trunk/data.oxd in the menu and play!


=== Ubuntu package (OUTDATED) ===
Instead of compiling Orxonox you can also get the Ubuntu packages here [http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~psachs]

or you can add the following source to /etc/apt/sources.list:
{{{
deb http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~psachs edgy games
}}}

=== Known Bugs ===
If you have an ATI card you probably have to start Orxonox with the following command (If you compiled it yourself its ./orxonox instead of orxonox):
{{{
env R300_SPAN_DISABLE_LOCKING="true" orxonox 
}}}

If you get an error message (while compiling) that 'msr.h' is missing you have to copy it from the following path. (If you have a different kernel version the path may differ)
{{{
sudo cp /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.17-10/include/asm-i386/msr.h /usr/include/asm-i386/msr.h 
}}}

If you get an error message '/usr/bin/ld cannot find -llualib' use the following command to solve the problem:
{{{
cd /usr/lib/
sudo ln -s  liblualib50.a liblualib.a
}}}
