Cube problems on Ubuntu

I\'m running Ubuntu linux. My first problem was that I\'m running AMD64, and to get around this, I edited the \"cube_unix\" script to ignore the proc type. Then, it comes up with \"./bin_unix/linux_client: error while loading shared libraries: libSDL-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory\"

Now, I have this library installed.

\"$ locate libSDL-1.2.so.0
/usr/lib/libSDL-1.2.so.0
/usr/lib/libSDL-1.2.so.0.7.0\"

As can be seen, I have this. Is there anywhere special I need to put libSDL?

According to ldd: \"$ ldd linux_client
linux-gate.so.1 => (0x00000000)
libSDL-1.2.so.0 => not found
libSDL_image-1.2.so.0 => not found

/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x55555000)\"

Any idea why libsdl is not being found?

#1: Really now?...

I'm using the Warty Ubuntu distribution and haven't come across any problems. You might try using the Synaptic Package Manager, that comes with Ubuntu, to install another SDL game such as gltron and see if that works.

Just a guess.

I'll bet the dynamic linker is expecting those to be in /usr/lib32 on your system. I've never used Ubuntu before, so I don't know what makes it tick though.

A quick test might be to symlink those libraries in /usr/lib32 or try to start cube with a LD_LIBRARY_PATH

---------------------
#! /bin/sh

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/lib

cd /wherever/you/put/cube
bin_unix/linux_client -w1024 -h768
----------------------

Not sure what the deal is, but this is easy to try.

libSDL-1.2.so.0 => not found
libSDL_image-1.2.so.0 => not found
libSDL_mixer-1.2.so.0 => not found

You need these packages/libs for cube to run, grab them.

You need to install the sdl emulation libraries. The 32 bit program won\'t read the 64 bit libraries. Hopefully Ubuntu has those somewhere.

Sorry to resurrect this thread, but I'm having the same problem. I installed the 32-bit compatibility SDL libraries but that package only provides these files:
/usr/lib32/libSDL_mixer-1.2.so.0
/usr/lib32/libSDL_net-1.2.so.0
/usr/lib32/libSDL.so
/usr/lib32/libSDL-1.2.so.0

I still need libSDL_image-1.2.so.0 and possibly others.
I'm using the Dapper RC, but I had the same problem under Breezy.
Can anyone help with this?

Thank you.

You´ll need to manually download and install them.

Ok, tried that. First it asked for SDL_image, I installed that with --force-architecture. Then I needed libvorbisfile, then libvorbis, then libogg the same way...they're all different packages. There were several more that I needed too. After all that, not only did Cube segfault when I tried to run it, Synaptic complained about broken packages and REINSTALLED the AMD64 versions of all those that I just installed.
There has to be a better way to do this, I had it working for a while on Mandrake 10.

Does anyone know what I need to do?
I managed to get Sauerbraten to compile, and it works pretty well, but my weak GeForce 4 MX card gets twice as many fps in Cube, so I'd like to get that working if I can...

What you need to do is \"apt-get --reinstall install libsdl-image1.2 libsdl-mixer1.2 libsdl1.2\"

That didn't help.
I think the problem is that Cube needs the 32-bit versions of these libraries; the 64-bit versions are correctly installed.
I could try installing them with dpkg --force-architecture, but that would probably create a new set of problems with anything else that needs SDL...

err-wait, I already did that a while ago and it didn't resolve anything...

Maybe you could try to compile Sauerbraten yourself?

It's Cube, not Sauerbraten, that I'm having a problem with; Sauerbraten works (as well as can be expected with my video card). I get only (on average) around 40-50 fps at best, dropping to around 20 on many of the maps. This is why I'd rather play Cube.
There are two reasons why I can't compile my own: first, that I wanted to be able to play on the public servers, and I can't do that with my own binary because of the "cheat protection": only official binaries are allowed to connect. Secondly, when I try to compile it, I get these errors:

tools.h: In constructor ‘vector<T>::vector()’:
tools.h:159: error: there are no arguments to ‘gp’ that depend on a template parameter, so a declaration of ‘gp’ must be available
tools.h:159: error: (if you use ‘-fpermissive’, G++ will accept your code, but allowing the use of an undeclared name is deprecated)
tools.h: In constructor ‘hashtable<T>::hashtable()’:
tools.h:234: error: there are no arguments to ‘gp’ that depend on a template parameter, so a declaration of ‘gp’ must be available
make: *** [client.o] Error 1

Thanks for paying attention.

#14: ubuntu problems

by nrwilk on 06/22/2006 01:58

I have this exact same problem. Except, I'm running Kubuntu (KDE, which shouldn't make any difference) and it's the regular 32-bit version. I'm getting the same error mentioned above. I can run other OpenGL games, so I know I have the libraries. But, I don't know how to find them so that I can link them to /usr/lib32.

Any suggestions?

Add "-fpermissive" to the CXXOPTFLAGS in your Makefile.
