It does mention this on the Preenv/FAQ.

Hehe, yeah, I type root at the beggining.
When i try apt-get upgrade ( not update ) it gives me a list of
files to be upgraded, around 22,8 mb, but don`t mention libgles 1,2

I got a question, how do i convert the game files to .deb format?
I'm not asking where to download the games, just want to know how to pack it to .deb format

There's an application for Windows called New Debian Converter but I have not tested it. I have it here to install but I have never tried it.

And Renaldo wants to be a mod!!!

It was a simple misunderstanding, we live and learn. Mods make mistakes too

Any1 with this problem as well?

Edit.:

Browsing the devel's repos with firefox in my pc, I could not find libgles 1 e 2 there. 2 is there, but only the SDK version.
in the package overview around here, says package imported..?

Well, strangely enough, after doing apt-get -f install, it upgradaded some
components, and after it, I did apt-get install libgles1 libgles2
and it worked fine...
IF someone has the same problem, hope this helps...

Hey Renaldo,

As I appreciate the fact that you`re sharing knowledge, I do agree with your criticaster here. It is wise to drown the people you help in warnings and disclaimers. Especially here, in the games forum, you'll find lots of non-techies who "just simply wanna play a game". Technies have sorted out their problems, if and when they run into them, without the need to resort to this forum thread.

In short; Advising someone to change the ownership of an entire user directory without lots of horns, bells and whistles, all screaming the same warning message (do this only if you're short on building material for the house you're building), is not good practice.

Back on the subject of PreEnv: With one well aimed hit, this set of libraries has taken away all desire in me to keep NitDroid installed or to run any of the emulators around here. As a non-gamer, I'm afraid this might get me hooked.

The Following User Says Thank You to anthonie For This Useful Post:

mkdir -p /media/cryptofs/apps/usr/palm/applications

Code:

ln -s /home/user/com.gameloft.app.hawx/ /media/cryptofs/apps/usr/palm/applications/

Code:

cd /home/user/com.gameloft.app.hawx/hawx

Code:

chown -R user:users /home/user/com.gameloft.app.hawx/hawx

Code:

chmod +rwx hawx

Code:

chmod -R 777 /home/user/com.gameloft.app.hawx/

Code:

preenv

Code:

desktopgen /home/user/com.gameloft.app.hawx/appinfo.json

and then started from desktop icon

ok ive been trying to get hawx to work..i tried the instructions on wiki compatibility then found this but can get it to work due to a segmentation fault..can anyone help?..ive managed to get other games workin such as nfsu, asphalt5, sims3 and nova.

i used midnight commander to put the file into home/user not filebox does that matter?

also a gap in the code above on the ln -s part which dont seem right
