Crash upon startup using Mandriva Linux 2009.1/2010

dlopen '/home/john/.doom3/darkmod/gamex86.so' failed: libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.9' not found (required by /home/john/.doom3/darkmod/gamex86.so)

Sys_Error: couldn't load game dynamic library

 

 

 

That is the error I get when trying to run it. I had St. Lucia working when I was using Mandriva 2008.1. I updated to Mandriva 2009.1 a couple months ago and had not tried running St. Lucia since that time. I tried it (St. Lucia) last night after darkmod (tdmlauncher.linux) failed to launch, with no luck... same error for both related to gamex86.so and libstdc++.so.6(GLIBCXX_3.4.9).

 

The funny thing is, I tried installing the version of libstdc++ from Mandriva 2008.1 and still got the same error. I do not remember having to do anything special to get St. Lucia working with Mandriva 2008.1, but maybe I did.

 

Does anyone have this working on Linux, and can you please point me to either an RPM package or a .tar.gz which contains the version of libstdc++ I need to run this? Debian packages will do me no good.

 

 

 

 

Thanks,

 

John C.

Our FAQ says this:

 

http://wiki.thedarkmod.com/index.php?title=FAQ#Does_it_run_in_Linux.3F

 

If you receive an error about GLIBCXX_3.4.9, delete or rename the files /usr/local/games/doom3/libstdc++.so.6 and /usr/local/games/doom3/libgcc_s.so.1.

 

Does that help?

 

Just made that its own entry in the FAQ so it is more visible.

I will look into that... though my doom3 is installed in my user's home, not in /usr/local/* .... that may be the problem.

Ok, it now launches. Thank you... my libstdc* files in my doom3 installation folder have been renamed and now it launches... gameplay not tested yet, but that solved the problem I was having.

 

 

I should have checked the FAQ more thoughly.

 

Thanks again.
