The Alpha patch is still in beta status, and does not yet provide networking. The Alpha version of Civilization: Call To Power requires a glibc-2.1 based Linux distribution. The patch has been tested with Linux kernel versions 2.2.11 and 2.3.18. The Linux kernel version 2.2.12 has a known bug in the math routines which causes problems with CivCTP. <br> <b>Update:</b> That's Alpha as in the DEC Alpha processor, ok? Stop trying to explain to me how alpha status precedes beta status and the two are exclusive. I'm not <i>that</i> stupid. Sheesh! | Civilization: Call To Power 1.1 | updated |
