Awesome, Dazdnconfused, glad to hear it! Enjoy the game,

Hi Dazdnconfused, Judging by the sound devices that OpenAL is able to find (OSS Default, NoOutput) it would appear your machine's sound is not properly configured. At this point your situation sadly moves beyond my limited Linux knowledge; I don't know how to configure sound hardware for Linux, etc....

Hi Dazdnconfused, There's no sophisticated Osmos install process; Osmos is distributed in binary form, and simply opening it with your package manager is all you need to do (or simply unpacking the .tar.gz) should be sufficient. Regarding the 'soundDevice' mojo, you mentioned you've tried 0, 1, and ...

Hi Dazdnconfused, Okay, OpenAL is installed correctly, as evidenced by the contents of your log file. If you've tried each of the devices listed in the sound device list and none are working, there must be a problem with your sound config. To be clear, though: have you tried configuring Osmos to use...

HI Sqncer, Thanks for your comments. Yeah, the PC/OSX/Linux version of the game is different from Osmos on iOS, in that the extra content unlocks once you've completed the core levels. At that point, the 'forever' zones will unlock, which contain content that gets harder and harder. However: don't f...

Hi antman, Thanks for your post! We'll happily keep you mind as an Android tester. Sadly nothing to report since my previous post at the end of May... but we're getting closer, and hope to have something to announce soon ;-) Let's just say... Android ain't an easy platform to develop for. ;-) Glad t...

Hi Dazdnconfused, If no log file is being generated, am I correct in assuming the game is crashing at startup? If so, try launching the game from a terminal, so that log output gets echoed to the terminal window as well. What text appears in the terminal as you're running Osmos? Regarding OpenAL, yo...

Hi Flayloader,

Yeah, could be a software issue. I'm running a MBP with Snow Leopard and the 4-core i7 and no overheating occurs when running Osmos. Have you seen folks on other OSX game forums mentioning with your same hardware/OS config mentioning the issue?

Hi phantom272, First things first: have you had a look at the tech support section of the Osmos FAQ ? Specifically, please see the entry regarding Windows 7 , and also please verify your videocard/motherboard drivers and BIOS version are up-to-date. Also, please try using the D3D drivers as some vid...

Hi there,

This is the first we've heard of this problem; it must be something specific to your config. I'm afraid I'm not enough of a Linux guru to know what the issue might be; anyone else here in the Linux forum with advice to share?
