Strange.. It works in 1.52. Seems it's a bug in 1.53

Edit: I have bug reported it to Cryptic Sea.

Sorry for the doublepost.

I have made an (ugly) workaround which I have added/updated Gish in AUR until the bug gets fixed.

http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=36682

So it should work now.

Paypal has put down my account for unknown reasons, amazon.com only wants me let pay with credit card which I don't have (amazon.de allows debit from the bank account) and I don't really feel like creating also a google checkout account.
So no money from me...

denisfalqueto · 2010-05-06 05:18:40

For those with the same problem than me: I've made soft links to the corresponding libraries in /opt/lib32/usr/lib and installed ALL lib32 packages I know that it is extreme, but I was just trying what could make it work. Now i'll have to try what libraries are really needed and what aren't.

Edit: The symlinking is not needed. I just need to know what library I was missing...

Has anyone got Penumbra working on Arch64?

When I try to run it I get the following error:

./penumbra.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libXft.so.2: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64

It works fine for me. I did nothing special to get it to work. Maybe you need lib32-libxft (just a guess).

Yes it was as simple as that thanks.

I just started the game but it froze, music kept playing ok though.

I'm using the dev' packages & kernel .34 for the ATi GPU OSS support, so I expect it froze for that reason.

Anyway, time will tell...

From my very brief look at the game, it already is oozing atmosphere.

sand_man · 2010-05-06 07:54:02

Yeah penumbra is scary
Kinda like Resident Evil crossed with Myst

lustikus · 2010-05-06 09:57:57

I also have some problems with the humble pack

World of Goo and Gish work.

I can start Lugaru and change the options and anything, but when I want to start playing (enter a level or start the tutorial) it suddenly quits with this error:

     ~/Downloads/lugaru/data $ ./lugaru
X Error of failed request:  BadLength (poly request too large or internal Xlib length error)
  Major opcode of failed request:  135 (GLX)
  Minor opcode of failed request:  1 (X_GLXRender)
  Serial number of failed request:  90304
  Current serial number in output stream:  90305

I disabled "blood", but no effect.

the Penumbra shell script installer fails with this error:

    ~/Downloads/penumbra $ ./penumbra_overture_1.1.sh
Verifying archive integrity... All good.
Uncompressing Installer for Penumbra: Overture.Extraction failed.
Signal caught, cleaning up

Aquaria starts and I hear the music but the screen is black.

handy · 2010-05-06 10:23:29

I have no sound in Lugaru, which doesn't bother me at this stage as I don't think it is really my type of game, so I haven't really looked into solving that one.

stqn · 2010-05-06 14:01:20

I have my own problems with these games too... But I haven't bought the bundle because I wanted to try the demos first.

World of Goo demo is great and works very well (albeit a bit slowly in native res here... I'll have to find out how to create some useful resolutions like 1024x640, if that's possible. I tried hacking this into the game's config file but I think I ended up with a native res screen with black borders.)

Penumbra and Lugaru (and Prey for that matter) both require unclutter to be killed beforehand, otherwise you get stuck in fullscreen with a mouse pointer that returns to its original position every second or so... Because they *also* prevent alt-tabbing out of there, and don't care about alt-f4, and you can't navigate the menu with the keyboard. Very annoying :-].

After killing unclutter I tried Penumbra but it's waaaaay too slow by default on my Radeon 9700, so I set all graphic options to the minimum and then it was fast enough, but when getting close to objects they get all black :-\. I'll try different settings I guess. And then there is the issue with the mouse speed, which is way too slow ingame even when it's way too fast in the menu.

Finally... Aquaria and Gish apparently don't have any demo? I really love the concept of this bundle, but I'm not gonna buy it if only one game out of five is working.

It looks for /dev/sound/dsp. Looks like whenever another applications uses alsa Lugaru can't access this sound device and complains that it's busy. In my case I noticed it when I had firefox running, and by closing it before loading Lugaru sound started work.

As I was reading your post I'm thinking I have nothing using sound, but then I read about Firefox, & I did have Firefox open, so I'll give that a try when I can close Firefox.

Thanks for that info'.

[Edit:] I just checked Lugaru without Firefox running & I had sound. Well done KimTjik.

Man, this pack was worth it just for World of Goo. Such an awesome game! Can't believe i didn't buy it sooner

Runiq · 2010-05-06 22:47:32

How long till I can't get the bundle anymore? I sort of misplaced my PayPal password

Diaz · 2010-05-06 23:41:45

Bougth it, now downloading. Will try and see if run xD

Diaz · 2010-05-07 00:41:12

Gish is a very weird game...
Aquaria gives me:

diaz ~  $  aquaria                                                                                                                                             
/usr/bin/aquaria: line 4: 12315 Segmentation fault      ./aquaria $*

the others i haven't tested, world of goo i had bougth it previously and it worked good already.

My system arch64, radeon driver.

EDIT:
aquaria runs after intall lib32 group
penumbra just kills my kde4 desktop

Ah, found Gish demo here: http://www.chroniclogic.com/gish_download.htm (the Humble bundle page links to some weird "site" for Gish... not that one.)

And managed to make it work:

cd ~/gishdemo
ln -s /usr/lib/libopenal.so libopenal.so.0
LD_LIBRARY_PATH+=. ./gish

The demo works fine. I'm up to two playable games in this bundle! w00t.

Does anyone know if there is a way to pay with amazon.com but using the pay system of amazon.de which allows debit from bank account?

Perhaps you could ask via email about that & also if it is possible to do an EFT into an account that the provide you with details for.

I have been in communication with Frictional Games via email & they have a great attitude & are very helpful.

KimTjik · 2010-05-07 07:42:57

Check the site now and you'll see that they've added average donation for each operating system.

Linux users once more prove to be generous!

There's a blog post about it as well: http://blog.wolfire.com/2010/05/Linux-u … dows-users

If you do that, Cdh, please tell me what they answered, would you?

You still need to get hold of the aquaria installer (aquaria-lnx-humble-bundle.mojo.run) yourself, so the aur package is just to make it easier to install. I don't see anything wrong with that.

There's nothing illegal. You just put your bought Aquaria with pkgbuild etc. and it will set up the game for you.

The game is not included, you could have inspected the files/scripts there
