System requirements
===================
GNU make, gcc, X Window System, Open Sound System or ALSA and supported
sound card, AGI game files. POSIX threads (and a thread-safe X server)
are needed for sound support.
A Linux SVGAlib driver written by XoXus is now available, see README.svgalib
for more information.
This initial port is being tested on an i386 Debian GNU/Linux box with
glibc running kernel 2.4.5 on a 333 MHz K6 machine. It should work with
24/16/15 bpp true color and 8 bpp pseudo color servers.
Building
========
Run "./configure", then "make". Should any problems happen, have a look
at the generated Rules file and drop me a note so I could fix it in
future versions.
Problems
========
If sarien ends and prints no message about detaching an X shared memory
segment, remove the segment manually using ipcs(1) and ipcrm(1).
Sound
=====
Sarien has three-channel digital sound support for Linux using OSS or
ALSA, Solaris and IRIX. It works only with 22 kHz, 16 bit mono sound
(it should be flexible but I'm too lazy to do it now).
IIgs PCM sound is now supported thanks to Ian Schmidt <irsman@iag.net> and
Paul Lunga <paul123@freenet.tlh.fl.us>. MIDI is not supported yet.
Known bugs
==========
Lots. See the Bugs file for the list of outstanding features.
