LuaSDL
 

I just downloaded a precompiled binary for LuaSDL, called libluaSDL.so. I placed it into my /usr/lib directory, as per the instructions on the website. I include the SDL module in my Lua app [require("libluaSDL")].

I still can't get it to compile. This is the error message i'm receiving:

lua: /home/giusi/Lua/sdlTest.lua:3: module 'libluaSDL' not found:

stack traceback:

anyone familiar with Lua or SDL that can help me out?? I'd appreciate it! Thanks

Have you tried moving it to one of those directories? Say:

# mv /usr/lib/libluaSDL.so /usr/local/lib/lua/5.1/
