Trouble installing cedega

[lemons69]

Hi. I am relatively new to linux, sabayon 4.2 being my first ever distro, so sorry if this is a dumb question but I have googled and searched for quite some time now and I can not seem to get cedega installed. I have a paid account with transgaming, and i have tried downloading the package from the transgaming site, and the 'cedega small' package from a few torrents. If anyone could walk me through where/how to download and install cedega I would really really appreciate it.

thanks, Zac

but I have googled and searched for quite some time now

Have you tried the wolfden search plugin
viewtopic.php?f=57&t=8536

I did a search for cedege using the plugin
Search found 306 matches: cedega

You might find your answer in one of the threads

Also searched gentoo looks like it can be installed using portage

# emerge -s cedega

Yes, I have tried the plugin but i cant seem to find a solution for my specific problem. I have also tried emerging it a few times.

I tried: emerge cedega

and it came back saying a whole list of processes that i dont wanna post if i dont need them cause i dont feel like spamming ... but at the end it says

I also tried: emerge =app-emulation/cedega-small-6.0.2

and it comes back saying that its not a valid package atom.

maybe I am typing the commands wrong or leaving something out? sorry, once again im kind of new to this

Particularly since you're new, I'd recommend sticking with entropy if you can.

As root:

Code: Select all

#equo update
#equo install cedega

awesome it seems to work for the most part, only when I try to run my Orange Box installer I get this message:

I did find a post here about the GTK2 issue, but I didnt quite understand what the people said about reinstalling GTK2, cause I tried and failed. Are these missing dependencies or something?
