I have a weird problem with the Alephone/Marathon games…Evil, Red, Phoenix and RubiconX not loading on my XFCE system.
The thing is, is that when I did an offline install of EOS and installed the alephone-git engine, they worked just fine. I did a reinstall, opting a live install and now can only get the original three Marathon games, Marathon, Marathon2 and Infinity to work.
Trying to download the conversion games seems to follow the same course as the original games, yet, when I click on it’s icon from the start menu nothing happens.
