  • Hello,

    i got your E-Mail about the new release. Because that, I thought I could try the newest release.

    But I have the problem that nexuiz doesn't start under Fedora 7 x86_64.

    Both Versions have the same errors (SDL and glx).

    If i try the x86_64 starter i get the following error message:

    Code: Select all
    ./nexuiz-linux-x86_64-glx
    bash: ./nexuiz-linux-x86_64-glx: /lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2: bad ELF interpreter: File or Folder not found


    With the 686 starter I get the following error message:

    Code: Select all
    ./nexuiz-linux-686-glx: error while loading shared libraries: libXpm.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


    I hope you can help. ;)

  • Either update to Fedora 8, or see http://forums.alientrap.local/viewtopic.php?t=2761

    It is caused by the build system being a newer Linux distro, because the old system is broken (it overheats) and I had no other available computer to build the release.

    So either compile from source as that forum post describes, or wait for someone to make a RPM of it.
    1. Open Notepad
    2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
    3. Save
    4. Open the file in Notepad again

    You can vary the number of "MS", so you can clearly see it's MS which is causing it.

  • Others affected by this could also try the binaries from http://emptyset.endoftheinternet.org/~p ... hotfix.zip - they were built on an older system.

  • I just unzipped http://superb-west.dl.sourceforge.net/s ... uiz-24.zip into ~/games and I get the following on F8 x86_64:
    ~/games/Nexuiz $ ./nexuiz-linux-glx.sh
    ./nexuiz-linux-glx.sh: /home/plouj/games/Nexuiz/nexuiz-linux-x86_64-glx: /lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2: bad ELF interpreter: No such file or directory
    ./nexuiz-linux-glx.sh: line 121: /home/plouj/games/Nexuiz/nexuiz-linux-x86_64-glx: Success

    I have not yet tried nexuiz-24-hotfix.zip.

    Instead of /lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 my system has /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, which is provided by glibc.x86_64 2.7-2.

    Additionally, I see this:
    ~/games/Nexuiz $ ldd nexuiz-linux-686-glx
    linux-gate.so.1 => (0xffffe000)

    libXdmcp.so.6 => /usr/lib/libXdmcp.so.6 (0x00836000)

    $ ldd nexuiz-linux-x86_64-glx
    /usr/bin/ldd: ./nexuiz-linux-x86_64-glx: /lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2: bad ELF interpreter: No such file or directory

    The 32bit binary (./nexuiz-linux-686-glx) seems to run fine for me.
