RE: Linux issues
Hi all!

I'm trying to install EE 2.0 on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS but it requires libc6 of version 2.17 and i can install only 2.15 version (it depends on other libraries and cannot be updated). I prefer Ubuntu 12.04 to 13.10 but it seems like i will need to use 13.10. Or maybe EE Installer can be rebuilt using older version of libc6? blushing

I installed everything on Ubuntu 13.10 as written in this thread, but still no success :(
I'm using Intel HD Graphics video. Any suggestions?

EDIT:
I even tried to install Bumblebee for Ubuntu (using this manual https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bumblebee#Installation)

RE: Linux issues
Thank you for reporting this issue,
I've updated the Esenthel Linux installer archive just now, to a newer version that doesn't use 'glXCreateContextAttribsARB'.
Could you please try redownloading it?

Thank you! But it seems like installing/reinstalling everything and resolving all unresolved dependencies i already killed my Ubuntu smile I will try it in the evening and write you back!

RE: Linux issues
Maybe it tries to start as a shell script or something?
Could you try right-clicking on the app, go to "Permissions" properties, make sure that "allow executing file as program" is enabled, then double click the app again.

RE: Linux issues
Do you have graphics drivers installed on your system?
I did install those from installation instructions, the graphics driver (which almost killed my linux installation), and possibly some other packages but no longer remember since there were too many.
There were a few other people here on the forums that tried the Linux version, and it did work for them.

The only issue relating to "Syntax error: EOF in backquote substitution" was in here http://www.esenthel.com/community/showth...p?tid=7385 but that was when trying to run Esenthel on a Linux without a GPU for server.

So I guess playing around with graphic drivers perhaps could solve this.

I have Intel HD graphics video (not discrete graphics) which does rather well 3d graphics (opengl etc.) on windows. I'll try to play around and let you know tomorrow what i came to.

RE: Linux issues
No, it seems like it doesn't want to work with my intel graphics :(

I'll try to install windows and tell you if that works with the same hardware.
