Title: Having trouble installing
Post by: Mogweh on December 13, 2011, 08:28:24 pm

I'm trying to install ps 64bit on Linux Mint 11 64bit.

lspci gives this for graphics card:

Quote

01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RS880 [Radeon HD 4200] (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
   Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. M4A785TD Motherboard
   Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 18
   Memory at d0000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=256M]
   I/O ports at d000 [size=256]
   Memory at feaf0000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K]
   Memory at fe900000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=1M]
   Expansion ROM at <unassigned> [disabled]
   Capabilities: <access denied>
   Kernel driver in use: fglrx_pci
   Kernel modules: fglrx, radeon

I have the proprietary ati FGLRX graphics driver installed.

After install, when i run psclient from a shell I get the following error:

Quote

any help gratefully received

Mogweh
I'm running Ubuntu 11.10 64 bit (unity [gnome/GTK3])
With ours theres a permissions gotcha, check permissions on psclient and pslaunch and the .bin of both of thoes, make sure there set to execute.

I'm also running the proprietary ati FGLRX drivers.

Mint 11 runs LXDE window manager not Gnome/gtk3 yet and aren't slated till mint 12.  It looks like if its not the permission thing, then its an LXDE thing.

I hope it helps.

I think there was some monkey business going on with the server around that time too. Anyway, install - update - change pslaunch.bin execute permission and my client was rockin'.

thank you
