I sure hope you have a 32 bit system, not a 35 bit one.
Have you manually edited your config.txt? If so, be sure to double-check if it's still syntactically correct.

Thanks for the correction in my world we have systems based in 75b and 36b , I will review my config.txt but in the moment when edit are only for change the lenguage to spanish.

Uh, then make sure you changed it to something like language = es, not language = spanish. GooTool can change the language for you anyway, so you might consider changing it back and just changing it to Spanish in GooTool.

Failing that, check the logfile (usually in /tmp/gootool0.log) and paste the error here.

OK, I have in the config.txt all correct, I past now my logfle:

One question: My directori of World Of Goo is /opt/WorldOfGoo Is corect?

Not wory, I put the code html for "code"

I change my configuration tu auto for lenguage (default) and is work for my.

It works when the language value is set to "auto", but it doesn't if you set it to "es"?

Is work in auto, It set my lenguage to Spanish.

I'm sorry, I'm not sure I understand what you are saying. Is it working in Spanish now (with "auto" in the config file) or do you mean you changed the value to "Spanish" and then it didn't work anymore? You have to set the value to "es" for Spanish, not to "Spanish" or "spanish".

Jajajajajajajaj XD

Excusemy my english is not the best

My config.txt are the original with her default text.

Ok, but did you change this line
<param name="language" value="auto" />
to this: <param name="language" value="es" />
or to this: <param name="language" value="spanish" /> ?

The first line (the one with "es") is correct. "Spanish" will not work.

Yes but I do a copi of the original and when the gootool popup my the error y repast the config.txt file original.

Have you tried leaving the config.txt with the default value of "auto" and only use GooTool to set the language? You can do this in the Options tab in GooTool.

!!!! I CAN RON GOOTOOL!!!!

is gibe my tis mensage:

"Error reading current configuration: Unable to parse config.txt"

Sorry, I thought that only happens when you manually changed the language before. We should wait for davidc then, he might know an answer.

Ok, Thanks.

The key error is "XML document structures must start and end within the same entity.".

The XML file is malformed somehow - though what you pasted looks okay. Possibly it has been mangled by a Unicode text editor or something. Try loading it up in something basic like emacs/vi and checking for cruft at the beginning/end. Also try removing the comment at the start so that the very first line begins "<config>" (though that would be weird...)

-davidc

I review the archive but not, the gootool give my the error again,

Did you check both copies of the config.txt? There's one in the game directory (/opt/WorldOfGoo I think), and another in your home directory ($HOME/.worldofgoo I think).
