Description Albert Zeyer 2006-08-29 07:43:38 UTC 
Hi there,

While glest-2.0.0-r1 compiles now without problems, it doesn't work.
After starting, I see a black screen for a few seconds and after a while, it returns to my WM and gave me the following error on the console:

Exception: Bits per sample must be 8 or 16: data/core/menu/sound/click_a.wav

I am on a PPC with GCC 4.1. Could this be an Big Endian problem?

Albert

probably

from README.linux
* The game does not work on ppc (big endian architectures) yet

Dekeywording.
