1.10.0.x is broken. Everyone's waiting for 1.10.1 to see if that fixes anything.

oh okay, has nobody got it working?

You're trying to run the client from the wrong folder. Don't run the "bin" file yourself, but start the "secondlife" shell script which is located in "/home/ghostwalker/installers/games/secondlife/SecondLife_1_10_0_32/".

And one more thing:

NEVER EVER run games or other networking clients as root if you can avoid it! It's a huge security risk and even more so with an alpha client

Good luck!

Hi again,

thanks for that advice, but I have no 'secondlife' shellscript in the directory (or anyof the others) all I have is the secondlife-bin

I downloaded the archive from this site tho.

It's the secondlife shell script in the SecondLife directory, don't go into the bin or other such directories to run the game. Just run ./secondlife from the SecondLife directory and you should be good.

You should NOT copy any libraries. The first location that SecondLife looks is the working directory "./". HAve you installed the right video drivers for Nvidia or ATI like its decribed here:
