Personally though I can think it's kind of greedy to still demand people to pay for a game that's almost 20 years old and no longer available for purchase/download. I hadn't looked into abandonware before and assumed software classed as abandonware was in the public domain. I don't have that on my menus (10.04, lucid lynx) is there an alternative in this distro? Has anyone tried dune legacy? it says 'playable' on the sourceforge website but by no means finished!Īlso looking at the thread suggested by lykeion it suggests using system->admin->services. Unfortunatly another problem I've run into using my cpulimit workaround method is that now I've got the sound working it comes out quite choppy and broken, especially if i throtle the cpu to anything less than 50%. Loading the game with wine pressing ctrl+alt+f4 and finding the ps id then using that with cpulimit using the -p option works but is far from ideal. It should jump in as soon as it starts (it does when I use wineserver instead of DUNE2000 but that doesn't appear to affect the game speed) To work better you should run this program as root, or adjust RLIMIT_NICE.įor example in /etc/security/nf add a line with: * - nice -10
#Dune 2000 game gog .exe#
for some reason I can't get it to work with for example "cpulimit -e DUNE2000 -l 5" where it would wait for a program called dune2000 to run then throttle cpulimit -exe Dune2000 -l 10 I knew about the -e and -P options of it. Been playing around with cpulimit a bit more.
