Hi KEE and welcome to this board.

Could you, please, be a bit more specific on your situation?
The following information will be usefull to understand the case:
oolite version...
installation method (e.g. .package, .deb, build from source etc.)...
Linux distro...
Architecture (e.g. 32bit, 64bit)...
What did you delete?

In the .GNUstepDefaults have the 'fullscreen' value changed to 'NO':

Code: Select all

...
fullscreen = NO;
...
window_height = <*I412>;
window_width = <*I640>;
...

I just performed the instructions of the first post on Ubuntu 10.04. It works fine.

I suspect you have not properly cleaned your first installation before performing the second. I recommend to
a. keep a copy of your AddOns and oolite-saves
b. force remove of oolite folders.

Code: Select all

$ cd
$ rm -rf Oolite-dev
$ rm -rf .Oolite
$ rm -rf oolite-saves
$ rm -f GNUstep/Defaults/.GNUstepDefaults
$ rm -f GNUstep/Library/Caches/Oolite-cache.plist
and perform the steps from the beginning.

The only correction that I had to do is change line 27 of Makefile from:

Code: Select all

GNUSTEP_MAKEFILES=/usr/share/GNUstep/Makefiles
to

Code: Select all

# GNUSTEP_MAKEFILES=/usr/share/GNUstep/Makefiles
then I just executed

Code: Select all

make -f Makefile release
