FTL Won't Start: Linux Mint 14 x86_64

Post by kalinka64 »

Hey there,

So I've installed FTL using the steam open beta in Linux Mint 14, and I'm finding the game simply isn't running. I get the following output when I try to run it from command line:

Code: Select all

I have a GeForce 9800M GTS installed with the most current driver I am aware of. Any idea what might be causing this issue?

Thank you!

This is a problem related to library paths. At least two other players had this problem in October, and apparently solved it. Have a look at this thread: http://www.ftlgame.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=3814

Hope this helps. :)
