GNU/Linux client problems

#1 Post by darwin »

For some reason the GNU/Linux client will not run:

Code: Select all

d@kosmos:/usr/local/games/tome4$ ls
CONTRIBUTING  COPYING  CREDITS  bootstrap/  game/  lib/  t-engine*
d@kosmos:/usr/local/games/tome4$ ./t-engine &
[1] 29158
d@kosmos:/usr/local/games/tome4$ bash: ./t-engine: No such file or directory
Also, it would be nice if there was an installation or wrapper script instead of having to run it in its own folder... usually I make a link in /usr/games, but it seems this has to be run in its own folder since there is no wrapper.

I always compile my own. I've never used a precompiled Linux binary of ToME 4. Hell, I'm not even sure if the precompiled version is i386 or amd64. (/me checks the download page... it says "linux32" so it's probably i386.)

That said, the typical cause when you run an executable program and it says "no such file or directory" is a missing shared library. Try "ldd ./t-engine" and see what that says.

If you're trying to run an i386 program on an amd64 system, you'll need all the i386 libraries that it wants (SDL this & that).
