Hi!
I have been using 25Assist in Linux Mint 17.1 and Kubuntu 15.04 without any problems. Today I tried installing the game in Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS with Unity. The file is executable and I have i386 archichecture added.

When I click on a app, nothing happens. When I try to start via terminal it says 'no such file or directory'. starting with sudo or su doesn't help. It is intel video hd4000. The game worked fine in Cinnamon and KDE Plasma 5. Do you have any idea what to do?
Thanks

Ok, I found the solution. The problem was that terminal didn't return any error, just 'no file or directory'. The answer in Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS 64-bit with Unity is to install two libraries like this:

Code: [Select]
sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-0:i386
and then:
Code: [Select]
sudo apt-get install lib32stdc++6
After that you should make 25Assist executable if it is not already, like this:
Code: [Select]
sudo chmod +x 25Assist

and then start this with:
Code: [Select]
./25Assist
This should work in all other Ubuntu based distros.
Of course, if you want to install 32-bit packages on 64-bit system, you will have to install multiarch first https://www.howtoforge.com/multiarch-how-to-use-32bit-packages-on-a-64bit-system-debian-7-wheezy:

Code: [Select]
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo apt-get update

*edit1:
After this I was able to start 25Assist, but the game stoped at splash screen. The solution was here
http://aao25.com/forum/general-chat-90/help-running-25assist-on-ubuntu/15/
I installed 'not-recommended in 14.04' ia32-libs

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

PS:In this way,you can install ia32-libs.However, we add the source of 13.04 instead,so, there may be some problem unknown。After install ia32-libs,I recommend you to remove the ia32-libs-raring.list in /etc/apt/sources.list.d,and do sudo apt-get update.

sudo chmod +x 25Assist

I always make sure to set the flag when I compress the archive.
