| Dedicated Server for Linux |

I don't know if it's hard to create, but a dedicated server for Linux would be very nice, so I don't have to do stuff like today to set a dedicated server up running on linux.... 1. Install Xorg, X11, wine on root server 2. connect with ssh, edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config set X11Forwarding = yes 3. restart sshd 4. connect with -X parameter and install blockland, activate it in dedicated mode and let it run^^ This steps are so undetailed cause only people who a little bit more should try it. You see badspot, it's just not nice to do it like that. The performance that is getting lost is extremly hard I suppose. Greetings Zerosan |

Linux isn't supported for the game itself, but I don't give a darn about Linux, so I don't know much about it :P You'd probably still need the commandprompt sim from Windows using one of those cross-operating-system stuff |

I would suggest that you rephrase most of what you just said, some of it makes no sense. Are those instructions for creating a dedicated server? If so, thank you, but this belongs in General Discussion. Are these steps able to work on every Linux distribution? For example, an Ubuntu based OS is very different from a Red Hat or Debian based system, and there are many ways to create and operate a dedicated server with it. I think that a dedicated server for Linux would be excellent as I run an Ubuntu machine at home that is almost never used except for the occasional backup, Ubuntu is a great OS and I would like a server kit for it and any other versions. Edit: There has been mention of a Linux compatible version, but a compatible server app would be nice until then. |

Most servers you can rent are running linux. Servers with windows are much more expensive. It should be possible with the torque engine, I think there are also discussions on this topic in the torque community forums. Root servers with linux have much more performance, even if you ignore the cpu and ram they still have a better internet connection (100MBit up/down is normal). A Server application shouldn't do much problems, it doesn't need any graphical output etc. just console based stuff. |

Get a Emulator or something like Dual boot so you can have Linux and Windows. (Dunno if thats possible or if im just talking jibberish) |
