I’ve been putting it off more and more, but I finally got around to setting up autoconf/automake to compile L2Stack on Linux. It was a lot less hassle than I had expected. Once I got through the bewildering structure of automake I only had a couple compile errors to correct, and then it just worked! Amazing.

Bottom line is that it compiles on Linux now and although the project has been uploaded on Launchpad well over a month now I didn’t feel comfortable making an announcement since the code was in a such an untested state.

Read the instructions on how to get it running on Linux.

I haven't got hardware acceleration for OpenGL on my laptop yet, so this ran slow as syrup.
