Oolite Bulletins

I just installed Oolite and I am very pleased with it. What I just miss is the background music that I loved listening to while playing Frontier. I installed the hyperradio OXP, but was surprised to find just very few music packs available. I was wondering if anybody did think about creating a music...

As an aside, any reason why you are still running FC8? If it's a work PC, you might have no control over it, but we at the Fedora Project currently only supports Fedora 10 and 11. Fedora 12 should be out in November, and soon after that Fedora 10 will not be supported anymore. oh, I control it allr...

what can I do for you? Build you a monument? You really made it!!!
- of course you also ruined my work career, since I installed it on my work pc -

THANKS!

hi people, I just discovered oolite (thanks to /.) and installed the latest stable version on Linux FC8. Unfortunately I have problems with audio: I can hear the sound effects, but I cannot hear any music - I dont think it is off by default, isnt it? To check it out it would be great to see the logs...
