>Description:
Two problems so far...
1) The game expects to see /usr/X11R6/lib/abuse.x11R6.
2) The game doesn't want to run on my system... I haven't tried it with the
screen set to eight-bit mode, however, and the silly thing might want
that. The message:
[blah blah blah]
tints [.................................. ]
Using MITSHM extension!
X windows screen type not supported
>How-To-Repeat:
cd /usr/pkgsrc/games/abuse; make install && make clean; abuse
>Fix:
For problem 1:
cd /usr/X11R6/lib
ln -s abuse/abuse.x11R6
For problem 2:
Unknown.
