Default Linux help

I downloaded Regnum online using Linux 32 bit, When I try to open the installer it says I need to open the file with an application. I've tried some stuff I've found but can't get it to work.

Are you using some kind of file manager? I've never used one so can't suggest how to fix it using the GUI, but it could be an access rights issue, i.e. you need to tell the O/S that it's an execuable.

Try opening up a command shell to where you've downloaded the installer and type the following (assuming the 32 bit installer is called RegnumOnlineInstall_32):

Code:
chmod 755  RegnumOnlineInstall_32
Then run it with:

Code:
./RegnumOnlineInstall_32

click on the properties, below Permissions should be a option "Allow executing file as program" or something similar. If you can't find it in your desktop or if you prefer to use the command line you can use
Code:
chmod u+x ./RegnumOnline*
from the path where the Regnum installer is located.

(Zodar was faster)

Check for libopenal if you do not have sound in game.

I'm having another problem, so it seems my NVIDIA video card doesn't support Linux. Any help?

You might be using the open source drivers.
Use the driver finder application of Ubuntu to install the proprietary drivers.

NVidia cards has lots of support under linux.In fact support it's better like for intel/ati cards..depends of distribution that you use and how much support that distribution video drivers.As Znurre told maybe you need to dowload open drivers and compile then on your system.
Download them from here:
http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us

You need to folow standard procedure to make them executable:

Code:
chmod 777 nvidia.bin
run installer:

Code:
./nvidia.bin
Anyway you must change your acces level and kill x server to compile them...but folow instruction from installer.
