Suddenly started playing again.  
Actually I recently got Linux on my new laptop. First time using Linux but after a while, got Dwarf Fortress and Cataclysm working on there, something about 32 but libraries…  
Anyway, to the point. I haven’t played Cataclysm in ages, and am wondering, what is the difference between the Graphical and Console versions?

Now, I have a game breaking bug, Im not sure if fixed but this is in the latest stable for Linux. And maybe the others. But when I pick up an item, and I pressed 1-9 etc to pick up only a few, I pick the item up, and a copy is still left on the ground. This works with all items as far as I know.  
Whats more is if I pick up a radio or anything with batteries, or a lighter with fluids (anything with charges). I press 2 the pick up the radio (100), it will pick up a radio with 2 batteries in it, etc, and leave the radio behind with 98. Duplicating the radio. But if it is an item without charges, it will duplicate the item as well.

I heard about this bug before, and I think it is fixed in the latest version. Could you try the current RC [http://smf.cataclysmdda.com/index.php?topic=5496.0](http://smf.cataclysmdda.com/index.php?topic=5496.0) ? We are about to release a new version, and I heard about it before and I thought that bug was fixed.

Yep, it’s been fix. Ah, that damn error stopped the game from running.  
I’m so new to Linux, only had it a week ish now, and I just spent an hour trying so many things to get it running. Finally got the package installed. And tested, it works fine.  
Also, loving what I read in the change log. : ) Thanks for that.
