Hey guys, what's up with the Linux port? The beta was already quite playable, I figured it would have been finished by now. Most of the bugs we reported were about case differences in the file names, not something that requires an extensive amount of work. Please give us a hint when we can expect to return to Aquaria!  |

Soon, very soon... and in a kind of surprising way.  |

Hello! Unfortunately, the Aquaria Linux version I bought via the Humble Bundle does not run on my Ubuntu 9.10 i386 32bit with the official nVidia drivers. My resolution is 1440x900; when I run the game, the screen goes black with an "out of range" message. The only thing I can do is shut down Gnome.
Any pointers? Any logs you'd like my computer to create?

Sounds like the game tries to set a resolution which your monitor doesn't support. What does cat ~/.Aquaria/preferences/usersettings.xml | grep ScreenMode say? |

This behaviour is caused by the NVidia closed source driver and TwinView mode. This causes the graphic adapter to report wrong monitor refresh rates. Try to run xrandr and you see what I mean. It will most likely report rates as low as 50 Hz for your display. Even if its german have a look at my posting over at ubuntuusers.de: http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/nvidia-propritaerer-treiber-19-lcd-falsche-re/You may also refer to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20/+bug/92599The solution is to add the following line to the screen section within xorg.conf: Option "DynamicTwinView" "0" This way the driver will report the correct refresh rates. It's really strange that NVidia hasn't adressed this problem since it maycauses problem with every native Linux game. Cheers, D$ |

One item for the Linux users I found: I'm using Linux Mint (ubuntu) 9.04 and the sound was coming out with small 'pop' about every 5 seconds after I installed. In the main Aquaria root, I found that renaming the *.so files to, for example, *.so-OLD solved the issue and the game's been running smooth as silk. Thanks for this Alec!! Though I have to say I didn't buy the two copies I said I would....I bought three (one as a gift). Beemer |

Soon, very soon... and in a kind of surprising way. Wow! If it weren't for coming back to check this thread, I'd have been completely oblivious to the Humble Indie Bundle. I'm elated to finally be able to purchase a copy - even though it's not buying direct. Actually, I think that Humble Indie Bundle thing is awesome. Thanks! |

Hey Aquaria crew. First I'd like to say that I appreciate you guys for porting your game to linux (we get precious few, though that might change in the future due to Steam), and furthermore for open-sourcing it.
However, I just got this game through the bundle (demoed it on Windows quite a while ago), and there is a problem.
When installing, it'll get to about 100%, but then I get this:
"NOTICE: Failed to install desktop menu item"
And then entire install reverts on me. This is... frustrating, since everything else works just fine. If I had to guess, I'd say the problem is I'm running Openbox and the installer expects Gnome or maybe KDE.
So... are there any arguments I can pass to make it ignore the whole "desktop menu" thing and just install? Or to force the install regardless of errors?

Try the cheap method: When you get the error, copy the folder that Aquaria installed to somewhere else, and then allow the installer to revert. Then, move the folder back and manually add you desktop menu item.

Awesome, that worked, thanks.
...unfortunately there was another bug:
Inconsistency detected by ld.so: dl-open.c: 643: _dl_open: Assertion `_dl_debug_initialize (0, args.nsid)->r_state == RT_CONSISTENT' failed!
I'm not quite sure what this is all about, though initially I assumed it might mean I had something running that had... locked down a resource or something. Turned out not to be the case. Guess I'll just look around for a bug page and file this.

Despite the fact, that I own a copy of Aquaria via "Humble Indie Bundle": How do you buy a copy of Aquaria for Linux specifically nowadays? I thought, Bit Blot would release the Linux version shortly after the humble indie bundle, but that was some time ago and the bundle sale lasted only for 10 days.
Any release date for an official Linux Aquaria release?

You can't. However, I assume that there is some sort of schedule for releasing the Linux version. (I think that Aquaria wouldn't have qualified for the Humble Indie Bundle if they didn't have a Linux beta at the time...) |
