Well at least it will if you stop trying to change it TC :lol:
 
Thanks Taffycat , I been to that site but I did not want to download the whole program again . I already have the game downloaded from the Warsow site . I just need to know how to do a manual install on me linux os .
Now if I had seen that site first

I just found this - expect you'll have seen it too, but just in case you haven't...

Most linux users will know how to extract any archive, but heres the command:

unzip warsow_0.42_unified.zip
Click to expand...

You will now have a new folder called “warsow_0.42_unified“, in which you’ll have to make some files executable:

chmod u+x warsow warsow.i386 warsow.x86_64
Click to expand...

After this, you can just run Warsow by using the “warsow“-script.

Just for info, there is also a 190 page pdf-type doc here covering all Mandriva topics. Again, apologies if you've already seen them :)

Lastly, there is someone asking pretty-much the same question as you here on another Forum.

Yep seen the instructions , and they might aswell have been written in a a foreign language cos they made no sense to me . I think they are only half there with vital bits missing , not much use to a begginer like me .

I might have a go at that 190m page doc but you have to sign up on the site . It does not say what the doc contains . Hmmm .

Ta fer yer efforts Taffycat .

Nooooo.... I haven't signed up to anything, but I was able to read through the 190 page pdf doc - all pages (I don't mean I read right through them of course, but I scanned my way through them.) All were visible. Just wait for page to load. The sign up is only if you want to comment.
 
Ah ha the link I used sent me to the sign up page . Theres lots of links on that page . Seen the other link and it seems I need a plug -in installing so I'll have a go later . I'm of for a ride on me motorcycle in the sunshine .
