Demo does not install - Samuelp - 05-20-2007

Hi !

I tried the demo.
My configuration is the following :
Linux SuSE 9.0, a patched 2.4.21 kernel
X11 R6, Geforce 5200 256 Mo
Nvidia drivers properly installed.

When I launch the demo (sh demo.sh) I have :
Verifying archive integrity... All good.
Uncompressing nixstaller............................
Collecting info for this system...
Operating system: linux
CPU Arch: x86
Error: Couldn't find any suitable frontend for your system

I don't understand, may be because I use a 2.4.x kernel...


RE: Demo does not work - Urkle - 05-20-2007

What version of glibc and libstdc++ do you have installed?
The installer looks for libstdc++.so.5 (gcc 3) OR libstdc++.so.6 (gcc 4), make sure those are installed.
Ther e *shouldn't* be any issue with a 2.4 kernel, it is just currently untested. The main primary thing to check is that your glibc is version 2.3 minimum.
