Hi,
The game did get installed but fyi, the terminal where I ran the dpkg kept complaining something about being unable to get a lock on /var/... and asked if I was root? I was indeed running it with sudo and the game was installed, I just thought I would let you know.
The real problem is that when I run the game off the start menu, the sound plays but my desktop is all messed up. The resolution tanks down and I cannot see the game at all. After the movie plays out, in the center of the screen I see the New Game/Load Game/Options etc menu but nothing is clickable and my desktop is a mess with black boxes everywhere. Is there some setting I need to do? I was hoping this will run out of the box but I am afraid it is unplayable, can you help?
I thought maybe I had to install the widescreen mod here (http://www.wsgf.org/article/star-wars-knights-old-republic) and I did manage to install it and then I put the 1920 x 1080 files in the override directory too. In swotor.ini file I made width and height as 1920x1080. Now when I play the game, Lucas Arts splash is fine but then it stops at a black screen after that. Help!
Any advice would be most appreciated.
peace
Ananth
