Hi all,

after a long time I can proudly announce that the translation of the Beyond Divnity (demo) on Linux guide is ready !

Please report me all mistakes (grammar, spelling) and all what I forgot to wrote!

@mods: it is possible to make this topic steaky ?

nice one, might try it some time.

I don't use Linux but thanks for all the people who use Linux.
Maybe i will use it someday.

Barta

Barta, give Linux a try

Is there an interest of a translation in other languages (dutch, french, ...) ?

If somebody will translate my description I can publish it on my site !

About trying Linux, is there a good way to do it (without sacrifiseing that Win XP pro which you payed just the heck of a lot of money for)?

The easiest way to try Linux without repartitioning your hard drive (or adding another) would probably be to use a distribution that boots directly off of a CD. Some of these can use a USB key drive to store settings.

CD-based Linux Distributions and Live Linux CDs


Some versions of Linux can also be installed to a file on your hard drive, so no repartitioning is needed, though this does require a bit more elabourate setup and tweaking. In Mandrake, for example, there is an option in the partition utility (advanced mode) to create a file and use it as a loopback device (the file acts as a virtual Linux partition). Near the end of the install there is an option to set up a boot manager, which you can have written to a floppy (assuming you have a floppy drive) rather than your hard drive, so you can boot the computer with the floppy inserted to either get a boot menu or go straight to Linux, or without the floppy to boot into Windows.

Ubuntu rulez.

just sad that starforce makes it unable to play on linux.

Your are right Morbo ! Maybe one beautiful day it will be possible to use the star force drivers but not in the near future

Hi Xanlosch

Sorry for being late but i had a lot of work during the last weeks.
I have finished the translation but i want to read it again.
I will send it to you in a mail tomorrow.
I guess that there would be a problem with the links.

Barta

Thank you very much Barta

The french translation of the guide for Beyond Divinity on Linux is now online !

If somebody could make this public in the french speaking forum parts I would very happy

Thank you again Barta

Xanlosch,

just to let u know that what u're doing is really really incredible!

& also the translator, Barta, for going over all that text to re-write them in french; impressive!

Hey, im new to all of this, just got my account today, what is all this divinity thing...

Divine Divinity and Beyond Divinity are two games made by Larian Studios.

Near the top of each forum index page, there is a button to post a new topic (your question does not appear to be related to the BD demo under Linux). Check out the forum FAQ.
