Ubuntu help

[Youngie1337]

Been trying to install Enemy Territory on 64Bit Ubuntu for ages now.

Error:

/root/.setup5458: error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

The setup program seems to have failed on x86/glibc-2.1

See [url]http://zerowing.idsoftware.com/linux/[/url] for troubleshooting

I've installed the libgtk but still error.

Any help?

Cheers.

Sorry never mind, for anyone wanting to do this in the future.

Download:

• libgtk1.2_1.2.10-18.1build2_i386.deb
  

and

• libc6_2.9-4ubuntu6_i386.deb
  

Install them in Terminal using

• dpkg -x libglib1.2ldbl_1.2.10-19build1_i386.deb
  
• dpkg -x libgtk1.2_1.2.10-18.1build2_i386.deb
  

The above may produce an error saying that the directory doesn't exist, then try this.

• dpkg --install libglib1.2ldbl_1.2.10-19build1_i386.deb
  
  [*]dpkg --install libgtk1.2_1.2.10-18.1build2_i386.deb
  

Worked for me, also fixes problem with GIMP that some people have.

Worked it out myself after like 4hours.

I wasn't aware there were any dependencies at all for ETQW. In my case it was just a simple case of mount an ISO, download the Linux client and make it executable with

chmod +x ETQW-client-1.5-full.x86.run

and then (as root)

./ETQW-client-1.5-full.x86.run

And it installed fine.

Mind you that's with 32bit Debian, shouldn't be any different really.

Sorry I should of stated it is Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory, released in 2003 which was only 32Bit support. I have 64Bit Ubuntu. I've ran the install it's not permission problems sudo and such, I've chmod the file also no difference. I am missing the files BUT when installing them it corrupts the OS.

I thought I won but I didn't lol.

Corrupts the OS? How exactly? Dependency issues? Ubuntu isn't particularly good at managing them, it tends to pull in a LOT of stuff you don't need.

Anyway, it's quite an Old game you could try running the Windows version under wine. According to this it works perfectly under Hardy (8.04) with Wine 1.0.

Anything corrupts it. I install and restart my comp and then boom stuck on the loading screen, won't work in the other bootable mode. Looks like I'm going to 32Bit.

TBH I found the newest version of Ubuntu (9.10) to be an absolute disaster, for many reasons.

It was great back in the days of 7.04 and 7.10, but IMO it's become progressively worse since then. 9.10 was the final straw for me, I dumped it to return to Debian.

Maybe you should give another distro a shot.
