Constant scrolling to the left/right
by rkfg on Wednesday January 2nd 2013, 9:42
So I've solved this. Check if you have /dev/input/js0 file and if you do, unload the joystick module with "sudo rmmod joydev". This file should disappear and game should work flawlessly now. You can blacklist this module if you don't have any gamepad by adding the line "blacklist joydev" (without quotes) to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
Problems with Gnome15
by sBlatt on Sunday June 24th 2012, 14:01
Just wanted to tell you: if you have the bug where it feels like something is holding your left arrow key down and you have gnome15 installed, try stopping the desktop service. this helped with versions 2012 and 2013.
Constant Scroll Bug in game
by Derrick Perrine on Monday February 27th 2012, 2:00
So everything loads perfectly from steam and in game, but when i get to the main menu(after the "press start" screen) the menu constantly scrolls to the left until it reaches the exit game tab. I googled for hours and found that the original(2011) had a similar bug. I tried the solution to that which was unplugging keyboard then loading game, then plugging in the keyboard while in-game. Does not work(though it did work for the demo). I even tried doing the same process for the mouse. I feel as though it has something to do with being hosted through the steam app. not sure though. any help would be much appreciated, cuz the game runs great, and i would love to make use of my 10$ :D.
here's some of my specs might help:
software:
Wine: 1.2.2
Ubuntu 10.04( Lucid )
kernal: 2.6.32-38-generic
Gnome: 2.30
stopping AI from locking up
by Leod Athas on Tuesday December 27th 2011, 6:49
Apparently the AI in single player mode can wait abnormally long times in random phases of the game. I saw that it was using all 4 of my processors to the max while doing this, so I suspected a race condition of some sort.
Therefore I worked around it by forcing this program to use a single processor by using taskset. By doing the following, the AI response time was back to normal:
taskset -c 0 wine explorer /desktop=steam,1680x1050 "C:\Program Files\Steam\Steam.exe"
