Linux Testing

[Moon Wizard]

@Jiminimonka,
We identified a problematic Linux build was in the channel from earlier today; and we've replaced it with a new build that should work better for the networking. It may or may not fix the specific issue you encountered; but it did have some effect on networking. Make sure to run a new Check for Updates before you try again.

For the duplicate tokens, I think we were just able to identify the specific conditions for that yesterday on all the builds relating to re-sharing an image. Closing and re-opening on the player side should reset the view.

I update every time I run it, and installed via the new Linux builder about 10 minutes before the table started. For speed we are all connecting via IP at the moment, I will try connecting via the DM name Cloud etc. again once the session is over.

Glad to hear that you'll fix the mouse wheel woes, that's great! With that in mind I should also mention, and this really isn't a big deal but I thought i'd mention anyway, is that when you are grabbing frame edges within FGU the mouse cursor defaults to a white-black-no-shadow win98 looking thing versus the cursor resize/drag shape that is default to my desktop:

Please let me know if I need to give more details.

Totally not a biggie in the scheme of things, but just something i noted.

./FantasyGrounds.x86_64 -screen-fullscreen 1 -screen-width 1920 -screen-height 1080

Hey @Kuthulu, sorry to pester, but previously I has asked how to get this to fullscreen on my 2nd monitor ... I FIGURED IT OUT!!! Therefore if you wanna get this to go fullscreen on your 2nd monitor, perhaps the following will work for you as well:

./FantasyGrounds.x86_64 -screen-width 1920 -screen-height 1200 -monitor 2 -screen-fullscreen 1

OK today I just tried to connect to various unpassworded tables that where in the launcher. Some worked, some did not. Logs attached.

INSTALLER FILE LAST UPDATED: September 1, 2020

NOTE: The Linux installer is only available via this link. While we are working on a Steam version, it is not ready for testing on Steam yet.

Download

We have a build of the Linux applications ready for people to help us put it through the paces to make sure it installs and runs like the other versions.

As noted in the Overview and Download thread, Ubuntu 16.04+ (64-bit only) is the supported platform for this Linux installation. Your mileage will vary for other Linux installations, and only Ubuntu is planned to be supported at this time. The installer is a Debian package.

Known Issues

• Application "start menu" link always runs updater; and not main application.

Issue Reporting

Please post any issues to this thread, and include your OS and OS version information. Also, please include any information that may be unique to your system, or specific steps on how to recreate the issue.

Can you update this top line to reflect the last update please. Thanks

I've had an issue with either 4:3 screenratio or perhaps running on lower resolution screens - not dug into it much yet but can confirm it appears on that laptop on the supported Ubuntu variant as well as my usual distro.
What happens is that the buttons and mouse pointer will not correspond. seems like the window is scaling to full screen properly but the buttons are not, if I had to guess i'd say from 0x0 pixel they are staying spaced as if the screen was a deeper screen - the horizontal seems about right though its hard to tell but in the vertical the cursor is always significantly below the button it will register on.

Not at all sure why yet, but it would be nice to keep being able to use my old laptop sometimes and I expect there are a few others with portable machines with VGA type pixel counts.
For what its worth so far encounted this problem with two cf-19 toughbooks with 1024x768 screens.

One thing I noticed after re-packaging for Slackware is that the FantasyGrounds.x86_64, FantasyGroundsUpdater, FGUpdaterEngine.x86_64 have SUID set. Is there any particular reason why? It's affecting my ability to have the AppData on an NFS share.

Also, it started working on Slackware64-14.2 once I installed it the Slackware way.

I'm gettng errors loading some maps from my module into my campaign.

I have gone back in and checked the images before exporting them. Log files attached.
