Cannot get AA running und ubuntu 14.04 LTS 64-bit
« on: Wednesday, June 01, 2016, 06:52:30 AM »
Hi,

I successfuly installed AA on ubuntu. When I run Assist and click "deploy", connect to a server and click "Join Server" I get the splash screen which disappears after a couple of seconds and nothing happens.

When I start Assist in the terminal the following errors appear:

./run25Assist
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "overlay-scrollbar"
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "unity-gtk-module"
[/code]

So far I have done the following according to some posts that I could find here:

Code: [Select]
sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-0:i386
sudo apt-get install lib32stdc++6
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo apt-get update

I also tried
Code: [Select]
sudo -i cd /etc/apt/sources.list.d
echo "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ raring main restricted universe multiverse" >ia32-libs-raring.list
apt-get update
apt-get install ia32-libs

... whereas the last command generated the following error:

Code: [Select]
sudo apt-get install ia32-libs
Paketlisten werden gelesen... Fertig
Abhängigkeitsbaum wird aufgebaut.       
Statusinformationen werden eingelesen.... Fertig
Paket ia32-libs ist nicht verfügbar, wird aber von einem anderen Paket
referenziert. Das kann heißen, dass das Paket fehlt, dass es abgelöst
wurde oder nur aus einer anderen Quelle verfügbar ist.
Doch die folgenden Pakete ersetzen es:
  lib32z1 lib32ncurses5 lib32bz2-1.0

E: Für Paket »ia32-libs« existiert kein Installationskandidat.

Therefore I chose the replaced packages:

Code: [Select]
sudo apt-get install lib32z1
sudo apt-get install lib32ncurses
sudo apt-get install lib32bz2-1.0

Any suggestions?

Hi,

thank you for your reply (I could not find the thank-you button ...)

@ ronski: This is exactly what I did. The suggested commands are identiacal to my post.
@ teddy_grizzly_bear: hm, I have not problems with sound (yet - because AA stops after splash screen :-). In Assist everything is green (COMPIZ ON is yellow). I tried some of the suggested commands ... no change.

Any suggestions?

If you are able to help with linux stuff, could you already share your ts ip for future use?

I dont know if you got it to work already, but I still reply here. I had 64bit Ubuntu and installed same libs than you, and it worked. Maybe biggest difference could be the desktop. You have default Unity, right? Unity anyway sucks, but you should try with for example Mate-desktop. I dont know, but I would try myself. Of course it shouldnt be that.

Also you should google with the error messages, for example that unity-gtk-module and find a solution and try if error message disappeared. Is there such lib than unity-gtk-module or something?

Ok, check if you have 32bit versions of unity-gtk-module and that other installed. You can try: sudo apt-get install unity-gtk-module:i386 and with other also.
