Hi, when I run exult zaurus on my zaurus 5500 I get the following errors:

Brandon,

thx for following my advice for posting here. I think I know what the problem is and I believe it is my fault.
I probably forgot the --local-dir path in the time I ran ./configure

In the meantime, although it is just a fix, do the following commands from the shell:
# mkdir -p /usr/local/share
# cd /usr/local/share
# ln -s /opt/QtPalmtop/share/exult exult
# cd /opt/QtPalmtop/bin
# ./exult --nocrc

if this works, then try again by clicking on the Exult icon in the game section.
Let me know if it is ok

Artaxerxes

It works great now, thanks.
Brandon
