[[OutdatedPage]] === Debian Sarge === Orxonox does not run on the official version of Debian Sarge because libqt4 is missing. Maybe using a backport of QT4 from http://backports.org/ could solve this problem (this has not yet been tested). === Debian Etch === Installing Orxonox on Debian Etch 4.0 works fine. Installing on Debian Testing (Lenny) and Debian SID (aka Unstable Debian) should work too (this has not yet been tested). === Installing the Libraries === {{{ wraith root # apt-get 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 ... }}} Users of the proprietary Nvidia driver need additional the nvidia opengl files: {{{ wraith root # apt-get install nvidia-glx-dev }}} === Installing Developer Tools === {{{ wraith root # apt-get install subversion automake1.9 g++ }}} === Getting the Source Code === Check out the source via anonymous subversion login. This will download the whole project to the directory orxonox-dir. {{{ wraith user $ svn co http://svn.orxonox.net/orxonox/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 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: {{{ wraith user $ svn co https://svn.orxonox.net/orxonox/trunk orxonox-dir/trunk wraith user $ svn co https://svn.orxonox.net/data/trunk orxonox-dir/data/trunk }}} You will be asked for your username and password, that you got from us. === Compiling === Just change into the trunk directory, then execute configure and make.... {{{ wraith user $ cd ./orxonox/trunk/ wraith user $ ./autogen.sh wraith user $ ./configure ... wraith user $ make }}} === Playing === {{{ wraith user $ cd ./orxonox/trunk/src wraith user $ ./orxonox }}} Select the data file orxonox/data/trunk/data.oxd in the menu and play! === Profiling === If you want to profile Orxonox (measure its performance) you will probably want to view the statistics in a special program like kprof. {{{ wraith root # apt-get install kprof }}} A word of warning: Orxonox runs much much slower with profiling enabled. {{{ wraith user # cd ./orxonox/trunk/ wraith user # ./configure --enable-profile ... wraith user # make ... wraith user # cd src wraith user # ./orxonox }}} Orxonox now runs very slowly and writes its profiling statistics to a file called gmon.out. Remember that _only_ the Orxonox functionalities you use while profiling will be profiled (since the profile log is written while the program is been executed). [[br]] After you exit Orxonox, you can parse the output file and then open it in kprof: {{{ wraith user # gprof -b ./orxonox > text.out wraith user # kprof -f text.out }}} For more documentation see the [wiki:dev/DevelopmentResources development resources].
