well... I have the sound working now, but you are going to have to really want to play this game.

This makes everything work with one exception. for some reason you can not select which of your party to control. As I work on that, I thought I would put together a tarball so I can get some testing done on it.

While I will try to find a smaller set of patches, right now to have sound and music you have to install timidity and the EAWpat patches (about 40mb, but the only ones I could find that worked)

I have a tarball of everything you should need (including the EAWP patches) except for timidity which is available in extras and the orginal data which you will have to supply and copy into /media/mmc1/share/games/lotr

If you untar from / it will all go to the correct locations other wise copy around the filesystem as needed..

Timidity installs a soundfont in /usr/share/timidity (GMGS.sf2) and if your only using timidity for lotr you can delete this as lotr can not use it.

Timidity HAS to be installed before you untar lotr as I need to over write the timidity.cfg in /etc/timidity with the new patch info.

The tarball will put the exec in /home/user and the EAW patches will go into /media/mmc1/eawpats

It will also pop a couple icons into /user/share/icons and a .desktop file into /usr/share/applications/hildon.

When I get the final controls fixed and find smaller patches that work I will put together a deb. Until then you can test it with this.

please let me know what blows up when you try it out.
Enjoy,

-John
