[Free Gaming] Easy Automatic Installation, without efforts, of CVScedega for Newbies

[patrick295767]

Hi,

======== Update of Sept. 2007 ======version 2.2 =================
A new version has been released of easy script cvscedega. To install it, just type this in your console:

sudo bash
cd /root
apt-get -f -y install flex cvs bison
wget -N http://patrick295767.pa.funpic.org/easy_cvscedega_patrick_version2.2.sh
sh http://patrick295767.pa.funpic.org/easy_cvscedega_patrick_version2.2.sh
exit

Beware this script is absolutely not Debian in terms of security and so on... Script not supported, but could install cvscedega on your machine .
I just read a bit the thread, and could install cvscedega on my pc. Then, I quickly updated this script.
Now, let's game a bit !

Nota: It will install you cvscedega in /usr/bin/
Enjoy Gaming with Linux




working games with cvs/cedega: http://cedegawiki.sweetleafstudios.c...tegory:Working (with right config)
======== Update of Jan 2007 ======version 2.1 =================
now:

The version 2.1 of the automatic script is ready; you can run the following commands from console:
[CODE ### version 2.1
sudo su
su
cd /tmp
wget http://patrick295767.pa.funpic.org/easy_cvscedega_patrick_version2.1.sh
sh easy_cvscedega_patrick_version2.1.sh
[/CODE]

Good Luck !!
CVScedega is not so easy to install anymore, flex-old should be USED !

The script is now updated and working for any serious distro (I use debian) & any type of GCC ! I am not sure it will work with Ubuntu. There is some troubles reported.

Enjoy gaming & Cvscedega !

Sorry that cvscedega profiles are getting less less easy to be installed
Howto with pics: http://patrick295767.pa.funpic.org/cvs.htm (sh should be version2.1 as above)

On one machine, I get this error

======== Long time ago in 2006 =========version 1.0 ==============
After reading lot of problems to install cvscedega, I finally made a script which can maybe help some of new linux users. (It's also preparing installation of vmware/qt3)

Cvs cedega is normally easy to be installed, but even though some installation troubles can be observed.

I hope this script effortless will help some of you !

To Install cvscedega, without efforts, just type:
(this script is based on the very great WineCVS.sh script )

sudo bash
cd /root
apt-get -f -y install flex cvs bison
wget -N http://patrick295767.sitesled.com/miniram/easy_cvscedega_patrick.sh
sh easy_cvscedega_patrick.sh
exit

When the script is running : get and run the PROFILE Number 1

If our gaming master, artificial intelligence, that I thank a lot for his support in this forum, has any updates or improvements, plz do not hesitate to let me know. Thank you !! I am lazy for making gcc3.4 or gcc4.0 check ...

Greetings to Linux Users & Gamers,

Patrick

[Runner]

I tried the script and get this error
-------------------------

Checking out CVS ... May take a while




--------- Error log - file /home/runner/.WineCVS/sources/cvscedega/ErrorLog : ---------
/home/runner/.WineCVS/Functions/RunWineCVS: line 736: cvs: command not found


Error in CVS checkout

Try fixing the error based on the output above, and
run the script again, without paramaters (Eg: WineCVS.sh)

Installation Done
easy_cvscedega_patrick.sh: line 81: ======================: command not found
Type as User: cvscedega
------------------------------------------------------------------

I get the same error any time I try just running just the WineCVS.sh

[patrick295767]

I corrected the error 81
and started the script: cvscedega is installed.

I checked :
apt-get -f -y install cvs
is into the script too

...

[tokez]

just ran the script on my dapper 6 install and all went well.

however, i had to

apt-get install bison flex

and rerun the script to make it finish.

[Adamant1988]

is this script safe? (sorry, I'm newbish).

code from the script. Looks harmless enough. What I'm a bit worry about with the script is it it changes /usr/bin/gcc which are symblink to gcc4 to gcc3.

rm /usr/bin/gcc
ln -s /usr/bin/gcc-3.4 /usr/bin/gcc

[Adamant1988]

Well, the script would only allow me to use profile 0 -_-... so I just went with that... did I make a mistake?

you chose profile 1 for the main part -- then that profile became profile 0

if you did that, then it is correct

[Artificial Intelligence]

Patrick you should also mention that there's a world to diffrent from the pay version and the CVS version, like CD copy protection support etc.

[bekok]

Patrick, if i go to: http://winecvs.linux-gamers.net/WineCVS
I get a message: Access forbidden! Do i need to get my profile from somewhere else?

nvm, it worked today
