Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide
This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

/usr/local/games/armagetron/bin/armagetron: error while loading shared libraries: libSDL_image-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
ok guys, the above code is what i get when trying to run one of my fav linux games, armagetron.. i'm pretty sure that libSDL isnt installed, so where do i get it? i did google this in, and it gave me back the sdl website, but i dont know what to grab to install it with :S...
k, I downloaded the source, I'm no longer running mandrake 10.0, I've switched over to yopper currently.. i did ./configure which went fine
but when i did make i got this..
Code:
SDL_cpuinfo.c: In function `SDL_GetCPUFeatures':

ideas anyone?
(yopper has been so far a great success, really easy to setup, a little faster then mandrake I found, and I'm having a lot less problems with it, where
as Mandrake problems were nearly everywhere.)
ok, i managed to apply the patch, everything compiled, everything installed just fine .. but I'm still getting this error
Code:
/usr/local/games/armagetron/bin/armagetron: error while loading shared libraries: libSDL_image-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
hmmm, k, that made sense, went and downloaded that.. now I'm getting this error..
Code:
/usr/local/games/armagetron/bin/armagetron: error while loading shared libraries: libpng.so.2:cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
it seems I have .2 installed in the vmware directory, and i went and downloaded the latest distro of libpng, which is a newer version.. should I try to recompile my program? or is there an option i can set that will point it to the libpng in VMware's directory?
