Cedega under Mandriva Linux 2007 64bit Edition



Introduction

Here is a guide for getting Cedega working with the 64bit edition of Mandriva Linux, but something similar to this should work with other distributions as well. This guide is for the nvidia graphics card, but something similar should be possible for ATI as well.

Installation

Transgaming only provide a i386 version of their program but it is ok to install this version.

Now you will need to i586 version of the libmesaglu1 package. Download and install the libmesaglu1-6.5.2-7mdv2007.1.i586.rpm file. You can find it on your local Mandriva or just download it from here.

You can install this file like this:
rpm -Uvh --nodeps libmesaglu1-6.5.2-7mdv2007.1.i586.rpm


Now you need to install the i586 libraries for the nvidia driver. I use the plf drivers so I download and install the nvidia97xx-100.14.09-1plf2007.1.i586.rpm. You can download this file here.

You can install this file like this:
rpm -Uvh nvidia97xx-100.14.09-1plf2007.1.i586.rpm


Now we need to create a symlink. Type in the following:
ln -s /usr/lib/nvidia97xx/libGLcore.so.1 /usr/lib/


And that's it, Cedega should now function properly.
