I download the git version of the game ()on my Linux Mint (Cinnamon 19.1) and compilated. So I’m trying to put some music in the game. I have seen the mod music CO.AG\_MusicPack\_Redux and I trying to install hin but when I go on the game options does not have the [choose the music]. What I have to make?

How did you compile? For sound you need both `TILES=1` and `SOUND=1`.

No. I compile following the wiki HOW\_TO\_COMPILE using the command “make TILES=1 RELEASE=1”

Yes, it probably won’t take as long  
You can also add things like `LTO=1` to make the game run faster.

Yes, but I don’t remember them off the top of my head, so they’re probably not too important.  
The makefile has a list of them around the top.

I usually add CCACHE=1 as it gives faster recompile times.

So. It didn’t work. I have an error message like this

What linux distro are you on?  
Basically, you need to install an sdl mixer package.

Double check that you have all the dependencies installed. Sounds like you missed one.
