Ubuntu Linux Install Help
« on: August 09, 2006, 04:14:58 PM »
I'm trying to run paintball on Ubuntu Linux. I get the following error:

Any ideas? This is an AMD64 system running an Nvidia card (7800 GT),

Try using the linux installer test here: http://dpball.com/forums/index.php?topic=2734.0

So here is what happens with the installer package:


asv@probe:~/.paintball2$ pwd
/home/asv/.paintball2
asv@probe:~/.paintball2$ ls
total 0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 asv asv 19 2006-08-09 21:53 libGL.so -> /usr/lib/libGL.so.1
drwxr-xr-x 2 asv asv 72 2006-08-09 21:54 pball
asv@probe:~/.paintball2$ paintball2

I have symlink in there for libGL.so in ~/.paintball, but its still complaining. Any ideas?

does /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 exhist? I'm thinking that it doesn't in your case...

<--edit-->
Did you try /usr/lib32/libGL.so.1? That's the one that I have to use on 64-bit Ubuntu for paintball2.

And symlinking in /usr/lib ?
[qudos@qudos paintball2]$ ls -l /usr/lib/libGL.so*
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root     10 ago 12 10:26 /usr/lib/libGL.so -> libGL.so.1*
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root     17 ago 12 10:26 /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 -> libGL.so.1.0.7676*
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root 518220 ago 12 10:26 /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.0.7676*

Some day i'll update my drivers =)

I use /usr/lib/nvidia/libGL.so.1

Look in config.cfg (pball/configs) at least I think that is the file. In GLdriver, change it to /usr/lib/nvidia/libGL.so.1 or whatever it is on your machine. Then you don't need symlinks.

By an AMD64 system do you mean an actual 64-bit install? Because if so, then you'll most likely have to use a libGL.so from /usr/lib32/, using a 64-bit one from /usr/lib/ would result in paintball2 saying that libGL.so doesn't exhist. (in my experiences)

I'm getting basically the same thing with a different library:

Quote
------- Loading ref_pbgl.so -------
LoadLibrary("ref_pbgl.so") failed: libX11.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
recursive shutdown
Error: Couldn't load gl refresh!

Available libraries:

Quote
$/usr/local/games/paintball2$ locate libX11.so*
/usr/lib/libX11.so.6
/usr/lib/libX11.so.6.2.0
/usr/local/games/paintball2/libX11.so.6 //symlink

I've tried them both. It's like PB2 was looking for the lib in a totally different directory...

Running on ubuntu 64 bit, intel E4300, nvidia gf7600gs.

An idiot-proof graphical installer would bring this game to whole new level. PB could really rock the Linux game scene among all the fresh Ubuntu n00bs like me if the installation would carry out without command line tweaking.

I've thought of trying to use a 32-bit libX11.so , but I don't have one and cant find it in the repositories either. Where could i get it?

The idiot proof stuff is for Windows.  I just have to assume Linux users know what they're doing since practically every install is different.  Even with a graphical installer, you'd still have the same end product -- something that probably doesn't work with your particular configuration.

Just include a linux setup that you know works with the installer- that should let everyone run it. ;)

When I find one, I might consider it. :P

I found it out now.

For running PB2 on 64-bit Ubuntu you need these packages:
ia32-libs*
lsb-core

They include the 32-bit libraries PB2 needs.

Install them with sudo apt-get <package> and you should be all set. The lsb-core package config asks for a couple of parameters, you can leave them to default.

Would it be helpful to sticky this?

How do i disable hardware check on my server? It'd be nice to at least have botmatches while waiting for the fix. It's kinda nerve-wrecking to play 2 minutes at a time.

I'm not sure if I have a method to disable it since it's critical for the hardware bans.  I will probably just have to compile a 64bit version.

Any progression on this one? I'm waiting out another temb-ban (maybe the 15th of the day) as i speak...
