Here's how to get Real Golf 2011 on the N950:

Log in as root
Code:
devel-su
First you need to add the N9 repo to your apt sources, the originals are stored in
Code:
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/aegis.ssu-keyring-dadd.list
you should be able to do
Code:
cd /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
cat aegis.ssu-keyring-dadd.list | grep rm680 > n9.list
Then edit the n9.list, and change the end of the line from
Code:
rm680
to
Code:
001
Then you should be able to refresh your apt sources and install the package
Code:
apt-get update
apt-get install realgolf2011
If you were to run it from here, it will check your device properties and deny you since you're on different hardware, so we need the sysinfod daemon to report back as an N9. Luckily the sysinfod caches it's results to a file we can edit, we just need to make it writable
Code:
chmod +w /var/cache/sysinfod/values
Then edit the file
Code:
/var/cache/sysinfod/values
Change the first two lines of values, which originally will be N950 and RM-680 to look like the N9 instead
Code:
/component/product-name=N9
/component/product=RM-696
After this you can run the game as user. You probably want to run it from the terminal for a while, until any apparent bugs get found and resolved
Code:
/opt/realgolf2011/bin/RealGolf2011
One such issue I've seen is it will complain about the graphics drivers, you need to add some parameters to the driver. Create a new file as
Code:
/etc/powervr.d/RealGolf2011.ini
And add the following info to the file
Code:
[default]
ParamBufferSize=4194304
I've played it a bit, and it seems to be working, if you see any issues crop up, be sure and post it here and someone might be able to find a workaround. And be sure to return your changes back, especially the repo, you don't want to inadvertently install any other packages. You can add a '#' in front of the repo deb listing to comment it out.
