INSTALLATION:

First, make sure that you have the following packages installed: Unpack the files from the tarball like this:

  gunzip tuxkart-*.tar.gz
  tar xvf tuxkart-*.tar
  rm tuxkart-*.tar
  cd tuxkart-*

(where '*' is the version of TuxKart you downloaded - eg 0.2.0) ...and then:

  ./configure
  make

You can run the game from the directory you downloaded it into - or (as 'root') you can install it into /usr/local/share/games/tuxkart by typing;


 make install

But it didn't work!

Well, the most common (by FAR) reason for problems is that your OpenGL/Mesa is incorrectly installed - so before you complain to any of the PLIB or TuxKart mailing lists, first try running one of the example programs that comes with your OpenGL implementation - or one of the Mesa or GLUT sample programs.

If you those examples run OK - then go to the PLIB home page and download the PLIB examples.

If THOSE run correctly - but TuxKart doesn't then please get in touch with the TuxKart mailing list and we'll do our best to get you up and racing.
