Linux Build Not Launching. #299

Closed TheRealFame closed 6 days ago

TheRealFame commented 1 week ago

Hello hello! Yes, I did see the issue showing you only made the linux build due to being asked, And i am glad. But! It doesn't launch for the user. So i would like to ask if you can try editing some stuff that make it compatible!

(Can still be ran through wine.)

https://github.com/steveseguin/social_stream/releases/tag/0.1.50

i've been releasing linux versions with most releases for the last month or two I think

Version 0.1.50 doesn't run?

Are you using ARM, Intel/AMD? What linux? ty

steveseguin commented 1 week ago

does any version i have run?

TheRealFame commented 1 week ago

I use the app image version listed! With an amd CPU/GPU. X86, I hadn't run it with terminal so I didn't get any errors! Also don't forget you'll need to use fallback fonts if not already.

I installed a fresh Ubuntu system and things worked fine. I didn't need to run it via terminal; I just double clicked it.

HOWEVER, you need to setup support for AppImages first, otherwise nothing will happen.

If having issues, make sure you have FUSE installed; I followed this guide for Ubuntu 24.04 and it worked fine:

https://github.com/appimage/appimagekit/wiki/fuse

You also need to ensure that the AppImage is set to be an executable.

That's it. If it still fails to work, I'm not sure I'm capable of helping as I am not a Linux expert.

Fuse is installed! (Before doing this.) Just had to check what terminal was gonna say! Seems like an error i won't be able to understand-

steveseguin commented 6 days ago

apt-get install fuse didnt' solve that issue for me.

I had to use the instructions here: https://github.com/appimage/appimagekit/wiki/fuse

sudo add-apt-repository universe
sudo apt install libfuse2t64

For example

Alright, Back. Tried to figure out why r2modman wasn't working! It's something else I would doubt you heard of. It seems like I need to run files with this argument for some reason-? Though that reasoning doesn't make sense to me..

(Linux Distro Akin To Ubuntu 24.04.)

I installed fuse, with the method I mentioned
I right clicked and set the app to be Executable

To run, I right-clicked on the AppImage, and clicked "Run"

Opened fine.

I was getting the error you mentioned when I didn't have the correct Fuse installed.

I'm not sure what to say. I don't use Ubuntu desktop as I find it infuriating to use.

I had the package installed myself for awhile! It seems flathub with ubuntu 24.04 is just breaking compatibility with alot of stuff.
