Plane Shift install in Slackware 13.1 64bit
i'm fairly new to linux and i'm having a slight problem with Plane Shift. it seemed to install ok and gave no errors but every time i try to run ./pslaunch from the game dir i get this:
Code:
./pslaunch: line 5: /home/deyna/Games/PlaneShift/pslaunch.bin: No such file or directory
./pslaunch: line 5: /home/deyna/Games/PlaneShift/pslaunch.bin: Success
yes i am using the 64bit installer |

If I had to guess, I'd say that you may have used a 64-bit installer, but the game itself is a 32-bit binary. What's the output of 'file /home/deyna/Games/PlaneShift/pslaunch.bin' ?

Wait a sec...
You ran exactly this?
Code:
file /home/deyna/Games/PlaneShift/pslaunch.bin
So does that file exist? If not, this sounds like something you need to take up with the PlaneShift folks.

yes it does exist. it's marked as executable and when run with ./pslaunch.bin the output is:
Code:
-bash: ./pslaunch.bin: No such file or directory
when i ran your code the output is:
Code:
/home/deyna/Games/PlaneShift/pslaunch.bin: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped

I didn't ask you to run that file. I asked you to run
Code:
file /home/deyna/Games/PlaneShift/pslaunch.bin
As long as the file actually exists, the command I gave you should not say "No such file or directory".

Alright, so I was wrong, it is a 64-bit executable file. Very odd. What happens if you run
Code:
'ldd /home/deyna/Games/PlaneShift/pslaunch.bin'
. And what's the output of 'uname -a'?

'ldd /home/deyna/Games/PlaneShift/pslaunch.bin' gives
Code:
/usr/bin/ldd: line 118: /home/deyna/Games/PlaneShift/pslaunch.bin: No such file or directory
and 'uname -a' gives
Code:

Sounds like your environment is forked...

I'm not so sure about the OP's environment being screwed up. I'm using -current on Slackware64 and getting the same error. I think PlaneShift is doing something screwy here, but I'm not sure what yet.

Figured it out. PlaneShift stupidly thinks that ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 is in /lib/. On Slackware (and Fedora), it's in /lib64/. Doing this gets PlaneShift working:
Code:
ln -s /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 /lib/
