TDM doesnt start on Ubuntu 16.04

omginput · October 20, 2016

Hi,

i have trouble running TDM 2.04 on Ubuntu 16.04. I installed the needed 32bit packages (https://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Spiele/The_Dark_Mod/).

Also I enabled the use of 32bit: http://askubuntu.com/questions/454253/how-to-run-32-bit-app-in-ubuntu-64-bit/454254#454254

But I still get this error:

andre@linuxhost:~/Spiele/darkmod$ ./thedarkmod.x86

nbohr1more · October 20, 2016

Looks like you don't have proper OpenGL driver support?

What GPU?

omginput · October 20, 2016

I have a Nividia GForce GTX 860M in my Lenovo y50-y70. But I dont use the proprietary drivers so the Intel Chip is in use.

But it also doesnt work with the proprietary one. Same error message.

nbohr1more · October 20, 2016

Looks like you've got general driver configuration issues such as mismatched libraries ( 1.3.1 vs 1.13.0 )

and missing files. I would head over to the Ubuntu forums to see about the best way to repair things.

omginput · October 20, 2016

The Ubuntu Installation is brand new. So I don't think that this is definitely the point...

nbohr1more · October 20, 2016

Do any other 3D accelerated Applications work?

glgears ?

xonotic ?

New Horizon · October 20, 2016

The Ubuntu Installation is brand new. So I don't think that this is definitely the point...

A new installation does not mean something can't go wrong, and if the output log that you posted is showing mismatched files, then something isn't right.

omginput · October 22, 2016

I've got the solution!!

First install these packages:

sudo apt-get install libc6:i386 libstdc++6:i386 libx11-6:i386 libxext6:i386 libxxf86vm1:i386 libpng12-0:i386 libasound2-plugins:i386

Then install PlayOnLinux (it includes the packages to make OpenGL in 32bit possible):

sudo apt-get install playonlinux

Have fun

Please put this to the installation instructions for Ubuntu.

freyk · October 22, 2016

Then install PlayOnLinux (it includes the packages to make OpenGL in 32bit possible):
sudo apt-get install playonlinux

But running tdm on wine (playonlinux) is a workaround, not a native sollution.

(I already made a playonlinux/playonmac installatin script for it)

But running tdm not natively, its possible that youre may experience speed/sound/display problems.

We would like to see that you fix your driverproblem.

Edited October 22, 2016 by freyk

omginput · October 22, 2016

It runs natively! Playonlinux has some dependencies which are needed for Opengl in 32bit to work. Just after installing it you can start tdm through./thedarkmod.x86. It isn't a driver problem. Lots of people experience this in Ubuntu 1604. POL has ~150 packages. It would be a lot of work to find those which are needed. So Id recommend install POL and you are fine.

freyk · October 23, 2016

And the packages to solve the dependencies for playonlinux, are the things we need to run tdm.

(so an install for playonlinux is not necessary)

If i compare the outdated installation howto with your info, do we also need to install to install the following packages?

libglu, libgl1-mesa-dri,libgl1-mesa-glx and libglapi?

omginput · October 24, 2016

Yep, those are needed but they come with POL even in 32 bit.

freyk · October 27, 2016

Ok.

When i summarize all the installation manuals and sollutions for you all, this is the following result.

What do you think about the following howto?

I will also update my these packages to the deb and rpm packages, with this information soon.

Because the only step that was missing, where installing the other packages.

==

Howto install tdm on ubuntu linux 64 bit manually:

Open your terminal and enter the following commands:

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo apt-get install libc6:i386 libstdc++6:i386 libx11-6:i386 libxext6:i386 libxxf86vm1:i386 libpng12-0:i386 libasound2-plugins:i386 libgl1-mesa-dri:i386 libgl1-mesa-glx libgl1-mesa-glx:i386 libglapi-mesa:i386 libglu1-mesa:i386 wget unzip
sudo mkdir -p /usr/share/games/darkmod
sudo chown -R nobody:users /usr/share/games/darkmod
sudo chmod uga+w /usr/share/games/darkmod
exit

open the terminal again and enter the following lines:

cd /usr/share/games/darkmod
wget http://www.fidcal.com/darkuser/tdm_update_linux.zip
unzip ./tdm_update_linux.zip -d /usr/share/games/darkmod
rm ./tdm_update_linux.zip
chmod uga+x ./tdm_update.linux

Run the updater:

./tdm_update.linux

Wait until the updater ends, then:

chmod uga+x ./thedarkmod.x86

If you want to have some desktop shortcuts for the tdm-executable and the tdm-updater,

create them and use the following settings:

settings for updater-shortcut

Path=/usr/share/games/darkmod/
Exec=sh -c /usr/share/games/darkmod/tdm_update.linux;$SHELL
Categories=Game;ArcadeGame;
Type=Application

settings for the gameexecutable-shortcut

 
Path=/usr/share/games/darkmod/
Exec=sh -c /usr/share/games/darkmod/thedarkmod.x86;$SHELL
Type=Application
Terminal=false

Note:

The following things are done automatically using my rpm and deb packages

This will also create shortcuts and installs other things.

I followed the manual above, using my Ubuntu 64 vm.
Got the same video error (exactly as in the topic-start).
And I confirm the solution, to install the playonlinux-package.
(added this to manual above.)

But why needs TDM this (and other packages dependencies from playonlinux)??

Dhewm doesn't need that package as a dependency (but i didn't did a test run)

Quake 2 engine games works fine (without installing playonlinux)

Edited November 9, 2016 by freyk

freyk · November 11, 2016

For my 200th post on this forum, i answer my own question:

As it is said, TDM executable and the updater are 32 bit applications.

They dont run on a 64bit Linux Distro, so 32 bit libraries must be installed.

Playonlinux depence on more 32bit libraries, that are not registered in the manual.

Going to filter it (again).

Playonlinux is nice to have. You can even run tdm on it.

edit:

Instead of playonlinux-package, install also the following packages:

libgl1-mesa-glx:i386 libglapi-mesa:i386 libglu1-mesa:i386

(searching for more)

element79 · November 26, 2016

I didn't have those three packages installed because:

~/darkmod$ ldd thedarkmod.x86 
	linux-gate.so.1 (0xf774a000)
	libpthread.so.0 => /lib/i386-linux-gnu/i686/cmov/libpthread.so.0 (0xf7711000)

	libXext.so.6 => /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libXext.so.6 (0xf759b000)
	libXxf86vm.so.1 => /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libXxf86vm.so.1 (0xf7594000)
	libstdc++.so.6 => /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6 (0xf74a2000)

	libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgcc_s.so.1 (0xf743e000)

	/lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xf774d000)
	libxcb.so.1 => /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libxcb.so.1 (0xf726b000)

	libXdmcp.so.6 => /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libXdmcp.so.6 (0xf7260000)

But it makes sense that I would need to install them. After doing so, I still get the same exact error message:

----- R_InitOpenGL -----

element79 · November 30, 2016

Also needed libgl1-nvidia-glx:i386

Works after installing that.

freyk · November 30, 2016

Nice to know. But that is videocard-specific.

element79 · December 1, 2016

Yes, it is specific to Nvidia. So?

freyk · December 1, 2016

I will put that in a seperate chapter in the installation manual.

And because its system-specific, its not advisable to put that in the installation packages (rpm & deb).

If you want to have some desktop shortcuts for the tdm-executable and the tdm-updater,
create them and use the following settings:
settings for updater-shortcut
Path=/usr/share/games/darkmod/
Exec=sh -c /usr/share/games/darkmod/tdm_update.linux;$SHELL
Categories=Game;ArcadeGame;
Type=Application
settings for the gameexecutable-shortcut

Type=Application
Terminal=false

Hi! I am currently installing TDM on my new computer (Ubuntu 18.04), but whenever I try to create shortcuts I get this error message (command not found).

boris@boris-VM40B:~$ Path=/usr/share/games/darkmod/
boris@boris-VM40B:~$ Exec=sh -c /usr/share/games/darkmod/tdm_update.linux;$SHELL-c: Befehl nicht gefunden.
boris@boris-VM40B:~$ Categories=Game;ArcadeGame;
ArcadeGame: Befehl nicht gefunden.
boris@boris-VM40B:~$ Type=Application

I tried several other tutorials to create a shortcut, but I am stuck...

OrbWeaver · February 8, 2019

Those lines need to go in a text file ending in .desktop and placed somewhere like $HOME/Desktop or $HOME/.local/share/applications — it looks like you are trying to run them as terminal commands, which won't work.

freyk · February 8, 2019

And follow the instruction manual on the TDM wiki and read the notes on it.

(if they uploaded the 64 bit version of the TDM updater, you dont have to install the 32 bit libraries)

Edited February 8, 2019 by freyk

TDM doesnt start on Ubuntu 16.04
