I have created I-doser Drug File (.DRG) player for Linux. Have tested this on Ubuntu Jaunty Jackalope 64 Bit but it should work for most Linux distros.

I will illustrate how to install this on Ubuntu. Please follow the instructions carefully to get it working.

Getting the essentials
Make sure you have the universe repository enabled. Then open up the terminal and type in or copy\paste the following commands one after another. Enter password when prompted.

1
2

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install build-essential libssl-dev libtool libvorbis-dev libvorbisidec-dev libmad0-dev

Getting Ready
In the terminal, copy\paste or type in the following commands one after another.

1
2

mkdir freedoser
cd freedoser

Move on to the next step with the terminal open.

Getting the software
Type in or copy/paste the following in your terminal to download the software:

1

wget http://www.khattam.info/files/freedoser.tar.gz

Unpacking
Type in or copy/paste the following command to unpack.

1

tar -xvvzf freedoser.tar.gz

Compilation\Installation
Type in the following commands to install. Please report any error you encounter as comments to this blog post. Enter password when prompted.

sudo cp freedoser /usr/bin/
cd drg2sbg
./configure
sed -i 's/-Werror//g' src/Makefile
make
sudo make install
cd ../sbagen-1.4.4/
cp /usr/lib/libvorbisidec.a libs/linux-libvorbisidec.a
cp /usr/lib/libmad.a libs/linux-libmad.a
./mk
sudo cp sbagen /usr/bin/

If you encounter no errors, installation should be complete. Press Alt+F2 to bring up the Run Application dialog and then type in freedoser and press enter. If everything went ok, it should ask you to select a DRG file. Select a DRG you purchased (or received for free) and it will ask you if you want to continue. Press OK and it will start playing. Press Cancel any time to abort.

I have not tested this anywhere else except my PC and it may not work for you. Please post the problems you encounter here and I will see if I can solve it.

    Where can I get 64b version of sbagen? I have been useing it on 32b hardy compiled from source.

    • andrew carlssin

      i installed it on Mint 7 and it runned just fine
      then i tried to install it on easypeasy, but i couldn’t install build-essential
      when i runned the program, everything went fine
      does someone know if i’ll have any problem with it in the future?

      • admin

        If it is running fine, it should not have future problems.

  • admin

    ^I tried it on 64-bit Jaunty without problems.

    Well, the zenity is appropriate for GNOME Desktop, I made a change in source code, swapped the zenity by Xdialog, and the result been this:
    http://img188.imageshack.us/img188/4843/freedoserxdialog.png

    then, who has difficulty in install zenity or use another graphical environment, I can send the program via email, who are interested…

  • admin

    ^nice work. Can you upload it and post link here?

  • Anonymous

    Yes;
    http://www.4shared.com/file/116795022/971720a2/XFreedoser.html

    to work, must have installed Xdialog.

  • Anonymous

    New link:
    http://depositfiles.com/files/4bx2qxnyy

    Added two more functions to the program. :-)

  • http://colapsosdaalma.blogspot.com Melodaf

    Great !!! It worked perfectly !

    But instead of libssl-dev I used libssld-dev and instead of /usr/lib/libmad.a I used /usr/lib/libmad.so.0.

    Thanx

  • http://colapsosdaalma.blogspot.com Melodaf

    Sorry… I meant the other way… libssl-dev instead of libssld-dev

    ^continue with next step.

  • spikeepixie

    ok. i’m very new to linux. running ubuntu 9.1. just installed it.

    i did everything 1st time, but got lots of errors. then i read the comments, saw the bit about the typo, and did it all again from the beginning (obviously not downloading the software again).

    got as far as this line
    cp /usr/lib/libvorbisidec.a libs/linux-libvorbisidec.a
    and then was told
    cp: cannot stat `/usr/lib/libvorbisidec.a’: No such file or directory

    so. why’s that then?
    and what do I need to do?

    thanks.
    looking forward to getting all my .drg files working on ubuntu. i have loads.

    • admin

      ignore the error and continue. That is to do with 64-bit versions and won’t cause a problem IMO.

      BTW, you can install sbagen and just use the sbg files (which you can get at http://www.khattam.info/drg2sbg )

  • HULE

    Well, it marks some other errors, but it runs the .drg files; the problem is that I can’t hear them. It’s like they were playing but they don’t make any noise.

  • admin

    @hule
    see if you can use sbagen sbgfile.sbg and hear sbg playing. It may be some problem with sbagen. You may also try configuring your audio with alsaconf.

  • HULE

    God man this is frickin’ killing me… I tried to download sbagen and it happens that it wont run on x86-64 @-@ I’m not of that people that gives up easily but man this is hard…

    Does tthe MP3 files had the same effect that the .drg or .sbg?

  • admin

    ^That should not have the same effects, but I-doser people claim that it does.

  • admin

    and it should run on 64bit if you compile from source. I tried it in Jaunty 64bit.

  • http://geeklyplanet.net/ Mephiston

    Tried to compile in 64 bit Karmic, and doesn’t work and when compiles it crashes, I have the depencences installed, any ideas?

  • http://geeklyplanet.net/ Mephiston

    Forgive it, tried with a newer version and works :D
    KTHXBYE

  • RickDef

    Hi, will have new versions?

  • http://lenett.blogspot.com lenett

    i have a problem , when i tried to run the freedoser dowsnt work

    The file does not exist or is not readable. Please run the program and try again.

    that say , what i do wrong???

    • admin

      @lenett
      First, make sure you selected a DRG file. Next, try moving the drg to some other location, like /tmp/yourdrg.drg.. try renaming the drg to some short name without spaces and special characters and share the results.

    Hello,

    A while ago, I made available here Xfreedoser, which would be the same program but with the advantage of using out of the GNOME desktop.

    Well then, I changed the name to OpenDoser, and now the program has a control to increase/decrease volume of doses.

    The program comes with a script to install and uninstall. You only need to install sbagen and drg2sbg manually, as explained on this page.

    The OpenDoser uses Xdialog instead of zenity, and the dialog to terminal and text mode, to make interface with the user.

    The project page:
    https://code.google.com/p/opendoser/

  • Joseph Buchignani

    For some reason, I have to restart pulseaudio whenever I want to switch between freedoser (or open-doser) and another sound-generating application in Ubuntu 10.04. Applications tested include Skype and Pandora.

  • TiK

    this program runs fine under wine (i-doser) I though the static I heard was because of wine so I tired freedoser and the static was still there, worked fine under 10.10 however make sure you launch it with “padsp freedoser” instead of just freedoser.. or you will not hear anything
    Does this really work? can you get “stoned” from the marijuana sounds? I find the static annoying

  • Drmgiver

    Seems to be a no-go in Ubuntu 10.10. Everything installs correctly, but no sound.

    • admin

      Instead of typing in just “freedoser”, try “padsp freedoser”

      • Drmgiver

        Worked like a charm. What is “padsp”?

  • Aberrant.Monk

    I’m running ubuntu 10.4 remix for netbooks. I have tried running “freedoser” as well as “padsp freedoser” both run the program but I get no sound with either. Any suggestions?

  • Ccerberus2012

    Small problem here… I’m following the instructions to the letter and everything is going great until I get to “cp /usr/lib/libmad.a libs/linux-libmad.a”

    I type this in and all I get is “cp: cannot stat `/usr/lib/libmad.a’: No such file or directory”

    What am I doing wrong and how can I fix this? Thanks in advance for any help.

      Sorry. I did not mention the installation of “libmad0-dev”. Install it by using

      sudo apt-get install libmad0-dev

    Hello, great achievement here, but unfortunately for me, it won’t work : Make file is empty (0 byte) no matter how many times i launch ./configure… all the dependencies are installed…

    Well, it seems to be a Nice Program, but I don’t get the sound…
    I tried ”padsp freedoser” and it still doesn’t work or am I supposed to hear an rustle?
    Because this is all I hear and it begins before I choose even an .drg
    Please Help Me, I don’t want to switch on Windows and I paid for 3 Files…

    And this is as far as I get, libssl-dev and all variants installed and found during system checks. The ./configure process doesn’t seem to be able to locate them however.

    Any Help would be appreciated
