- ====== Crossfire on Linux ======
- Crossfire should install and run on any Linux variant that supports [[wp>X_Window_System|X]] and has the libraries which Crossfire requires.
-
- This page addresses installation and running of Crossfire software. For instructions related to setup and use of a Linux development environment to build Crossfire software, refer to the [[dev:linux| Linux Developer]] index page.
-
- ===== Debian =====
- Crossfire is available in all Debian distributions; oldstable, stable, testing and unstable.
-
- ==== Installation ====
- The easiest way to install Crossfire on [[wp>Debian]] is to use the Debian package system and repository. The version there may lag somewhat behind the latest release, but it will be tested for Debian and automatically install any needed dependencies.
-
- To stay current with the latest Crossfire development, see the [[dev:linux| Linux Developer]] index page where resources related to toolchain setup and source compilation are listed.
-
- === Server ===
-
- The server installation command is the following:
-
- $ apt-get update;apt-get install crossfire-server crossfire-maps
-
- Note: you may need to use the sudo command to install these packages
-
- $ sudo apt-get update;sudo apt-get install crossfire-server crossfire-maps
-
- This will install the Crossfire server (crossfire-server) and the current map set (crossfire-maps)
-
- If necessary, you can stop, start or restart the crossfire server via the following commands, respectively:
-
- $ /etc/init.d/crossfire-server stop
-
- $ /etc/init.d/crossfire-server start
-
- $ /etc/init.d/crossfire-server restart
-
- Again, adding sudo to those commands may be necessary. For example:
-
- $ sudo /etc/init.d/crossfire-server restart
-
- === Client ===
-
- Installation of the client has a similar syntax. You'll need to chose which client you want to install, or if you install any (or all of) the three - which one you'll actually use for game play.
-
- $ apt-get install crossfire-client-x11
-
- $ apt-get install crossfire-client-gtk
-
- $ apt-get install crossfire-client-gtk2
-
- === Launch Client ===
-
- To launch the client, hit alt+f2 and then enter any of the following (shown in bold text):
-
- * For crossfire-client-x11: **cfclient**
- * For crossfire-client-gtk: **gcfclient**
- * For crossfire-client-gtk2: **gcfclient2**
-
- (Minor Note: gcfclient stands for **G**TK **C**ross**F**ire **client**)
-
- ===== (K|X)Ubuntu =====
-
- Crossfire is available in all (K|X)Ubuntu distributions (warty, hoary, breezy, dapper, edgy, feisty, gutsy, hardy, ibex, jaunty, karmic, lucid and maverick) and found in the **universe** section; the exceptions being that the crossfire-client-gtk2 client is only available for the edgy, feisty, hardy, ibex, jaunty, karmic, lucid and maverick distribution and the no longer maintained crossfire-maps-small (aka small world which stopped being maintained at v1.5.0) package is only available for the dapper, hardy, jaunty, karmic, lucid and maverick releases. The original two clients, crossfire-client-x11 and crossfire-client-gtk, are only available up to the lucid release.
-
- ==== Installation ====
- The easiest way to install Crossfire on [[wp>Ubuntu]] is to use the (K|X)Ubuntu package system and repository. The version there may lag somewhat behind the latest release, but it will be tested for (K|X)Ubuntu and automatically install any needed dependencies. (To stay current with the latest development version, see the [[http://crossfire.real-time.com/svn/index.html|Crossfire SVN page]].)
-
- === Command Line Interface (CLI) ===
-
- == Server ==
-
- The server installation command is the following:
-
- $ sudo apt-get update;sudo apt-get install crossfire-server crossfire-maps
-
- This will install the Crossfire server (crossfire-server) and the current map set (crossfire-maps)
-
- If necessary, you can stop, start or restart the crossfire server via the following commands, respectively:
-
- $ sudo /etc/init.d/crossfire-server stop
-
- $ sudo /etc/init.d/crossfire-server start
-
- $ sudo /etc/init.d/crossfire-server restart
-
- == Client ==
-
- Installation of the client has a similar syntax. The X11 and GTK clients are obsolete, but included here as a reference for older releases. You’ll need to or should use the GTK2 client in order to play Crossfire.
-
- $ sudo apt-get install crossfire-client-gtk2
-
- $ sudo apt-get install crossfire-client-x11
-
- $ sudo apt-get install crossfire-client-gtk
-
- === GUI ===
-
- == Client and Server ==
-
- The following steps summarize how to install Crossfire packages through the GUI (Synaptic Package Manager.) The instructions are based of an installation of Feisty Fawn, the actual steps may vary for earlier releases or distributions of Ubuntu.
-
- If necessary, to enable access to the **Universe** section **OR** confirm that you have access to the Universe section, perform the following steps:
-
- - Click on **System** -> **Administration** -> **Synaptic Package Manager**
- - Within **Synaptic Package Manager**, click on **Settings** -> **Repositories** and a new popup window should appear
- - Place a check, or make sure there is a check, in front of **Community maintained Open Source software (universe)**
- - Click on the **Close** button (lower right of the popup window)
- - If necessary, click on the **Close** button to the **Repositories Changed** window
- - Click on **Update** to download or update the new software package list
- - Click on the **Search** button and a new popup window will appear
- - For the search term, use **crossfire** and click on **Search**
- - Select which component(s) you wish to install; at a minimum you'll need at least one of the clients
- - Follow the prompts and confirmation steps (check box next to the package name, confirm the installation) and click on **Apply**
- - Wait for the files to download and install
-
- === Launch Client ===
-
- * IMPORTANT Note:
