Linux - No System/Manifest.ini

[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.games.unreal.tournament2003 (More info?)

I can't update because of it. I just installed Slackware 10, and it
finally too the install of ut2k3 (For some reason Slack 9.1 just won't
find the CD roms). I didn't have an XWebAdin.ini (I think that's the file,
I haven't got it installing at the moment), but I did have an
xWebAdmin.ini, and renaming that seemed to work. Now it wants the
Manifest.ini. I've tried copying this off the CD, off my Windows install
(changing '\'s to '/'s of course) and renaming some of the Manifest.* in
the Systemfolder, but I keep getting told I have no matching delta. I
tried the updated loki_update binary from the icculous faq after using the
--keep option with the full installer, same problem (natch, since
Manifest.ini seems to be the file ut2k3 read to decide how to patch).

I tried to apply the patch manually. It seemed to work, but then I get no
sound (I'm using ALSA at the moment, slackware's default).

It's really driving me nuts. If I can just get the dang thing installed
correctly once I'll burn the install dir to a DVD and be done with it like
I did for the fist ut (it's nice being able to just untar a file and then
you're all setup ).

Is there any hope? Thanks again folks

What are you updating to? With what patch? Where did you get it from?

Have you tried your ~/.loki/ut?

Heeeey JC! I see you've changed your headers again. Sorry for you, but
I still don't think you're a nice troll. Perhaps you need to look at
UT_Master in alt.games.unreal.tournament, and learn how to troll the
proper way. He even has his own FAQ!

From my killfile:

From your message:

So yeah, you changed your From: header. Time to ignore the rest of
your post and killfile you again.

MD, a while back I started a project to de-uglify Xnews. I gave up after
I switched to Thunderbird for reading news, but I still use Xnews for
binaries. Here's the modified executable, if you're interested.

Thanks, it's a nice gesture. I don't have windows, though, and Xnews
is a windows program. I'm perfectly happy with my slrn.
