Talk:Installing EVE on Linux

Suggestion smaller images

I'd suggest making the images a bit smaller, one of them doesn't fit on my laptop screen, streaching the browser too much. - Asayanami Dei

Thanks for taking a look. I hope the sizes are better now. - Bl4cklisted Sept 27, 2010

root password required?

Great job. Is it actually necessary to create a root password? - Laria Raven Sept 27. 2010.

In my experience, I have not been able to get very far without doing so. If your user isn't in the "sudoers" group, you will likely not be able to install anything. Your mileage may vary. Thank you for reading. - Bl4cklisted Sept 28, 2010

Potential Fix - Disk Space Usage Problem - Unimplemented msdelta.dll function

I suffered from the same problem as described in this section, with the launcher tossing an error about "unimplemented function msdelta.dll.ApplyDeltaW"

Did a quick look through winetricks, and found the following.

Running `winetricks msdelta` for my wineprefix seems to have resolved the issue.
