OPen a terminal and run it from there to see any error messages. I am gussing you are missing one of the dependances. I am thinking its the MySQL package. Try installing MySQL using your package manager and starting it again

I'm in an online league. Will the game interoperate with my leaguemates if I am on the Linux version and they are on Windows?
The only reason that I boot over to XP at all is to use OOTP. Would love to be able to do everything from Linux. |

Is the game running when you see that error. If so what were you doing at the time. If not make sure you are starting the right file.

Loaded Konqueror with package manager, game now starts to run, gets to the load game screen and then disappears and takes me back to the desktop.

Thats very strange, you dont need Konqueror to run the game. Any message when the game quits? Are you running 32 or 64 bit box?

No message game just disappears off screen, am using 32 bit, I may try another distro to see what happens.

I find that very strange, I would expect a "core dumped" message if it crashed or an error code written to the terminal. What hardware are you running? What filesystem? Is is a windows dual boot?

Linux Install Help
<meta http-equiv="CONTENT-TYPE" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"><title></title><meta name="GENERATOR" content="OpenOffice.org 2.3 (Linux)"> <style type="text/css"> <!-- @page { size: 8.5in 11in; margin: 0.79in } P { margin-bottom: 0.08in } --> </style> I am new to LINUX--MEPIS distribution with KDE--and could use a step-by-step explanation on how to install the OOTP program (i.e. pretend I am 52 year-old mom). I downloaded the LINUX OOTP9 file "ootp9linuxinstall.tar.gz," extracted it to my desktop, but cannot proceed further.
In the "OOTPBaseballInstaller" folder, there is a file "LinuxInstaller" and a "Data" folder. In the "Data" folder there is a "installer.pkg" file. Double-clicking on any and all of these does nothing. Please help! |

The first thing you need to do it find out what is missing. The best way to do this is to open a shell (command prompt). Move into the OOTPBaseballInstaller folder and type ./LinuxInstaller You should see an error along the lines of "Unable to open shared library xxx". The xxx will be the name of the missing software you need to install. Go to your distro package manager and install the missing software package and try again. Once you have all the needed software installed the installer will open a window and you simply follow the on-screen instructions. |

You can check this by starting the game in gdb. When it stops look at the call stack. If you are not familiar with gdb here are the basics. Quote:
Program received signal SIGFPE, Arithmetic exception. 0xb7f2e20b in do_lookup_x () from /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (gdb) bt #0 0xb7f2e20b in do_lookup_x () from /lib/ld-linux.so.2 #1 0xb7f2e597 in _dl_lookup_symbol_x () from /lib/ld-linux.so.2 #2 0xb7f2fc00 in _dl_relocate_object () from /lib/ld-linux.so.2 #3 0xb7f29918 in dl_main () from /lib/ld-linux.so.2 #4 0xb7f38305 in _dl_sysdep_start () from /lib/ld-linux.so.2 #5 0xb7f261f4 in _dl_start () from /lib/ld-linux.so.2 #6 0xb7f25847 in _start () from /lib/ld-linux.so.2 If you see the function main() listed in the trace then the chances are its is something else. In which case post back your trace. Last edited by pisdpaul; 12-01-2008 at 06:03 AM. |

Problem entering a license key...
I have the windows version of the game but really want to convert wholly to Linux, thank you OOTP and PISD!
I bought a Mac license tonight for use with my Linux install but the game won't take my activation. Can someone help? I have double and triple checked that it looks good when cut and pasted into the field. Really want to get my online league going on my Linux machine! Jeremy |

I'm pretty sure that the licenses are OS-specific at this time, so the Mac license won't work with the Linux version. I may be mistaken, however.
