can't get it to run

when I try to start up secondlife, it creates a blank window, then exits immediately.


Here is the output from lastrun.log:

I take from the last bit of the output, that you possess an ATI card?
whats your distro (kernel etc) and what version of the ATI linux driver are you using

I have had success on Ubuntu(breezy) 2.6.12-10-i386 with fglrx 8.16.20
and tested and running at 1280*800 @ 25fps with fglrx 8.22.5 (built debs from ATI installer)


Failed as above on Xandros 2.6.11 with standard installed fglrx driver

It seems that the driver/kernel module/xorg.conf is the key hope that gives you some clues

As always with linux there is a huge vareity of distros with various gotchas so it may not be the end of the story below is a link giving detailed step by step instructions on installing and compiling the latest ati driver against a ubuntu system.For Ubuntu Users

http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=423584

Hi,
I am running Mandriva Linux 10.1, kernel is 2.6.8 as shown above.

The X11 driver I am using is "radeon", I don't seem to have a driver called "fglrx", although the BoardName is "ATI radeon (fglrx)".

I am going to try and locate the fglrx driver.

Yup sounds like thats the problem the "radeon" bit is probably pointing to the generic driver
which is basically there to get you up and running graphically, probably uses Framebuffer.

'glxinfo' in a terminal will bring up some OpenGL info and if it states anything about Mesa then your very likely to be running the dummy driver with software GL support

'glxgears' in a terminal also handy, if your getting 100's FPS (bad) if you install sucessfully the ATI driver and run with 1000's FPS (your winning!)

I'm having the same problem as well with Debian unstable, X.org 6.9 and the X.org radeon driver. It seems secondlife is coredumping the second time I run it (if I remove the secondlife directory and extract a new one, it works fine until I run it a second time). Here's the backtrace, which I doubt helps:
#0 *__GI_strncpy (s1=0xbfa10c1f "\n\220\016\uffff\uffff\uffff\223\017\nh\016\uffff\uffff)\2236\bL\016\uffff\uffff\uffff\223\017\nL\f\uffff\uffff", s2=0xc27a8036 <Address 0xc27a8036 out of bounds>, n=10) at ../sysdeps/generic/strncpy.c:41

#2 0x09b3a31b in LLVOAvatar::initVertexPrograms ()
#3 0x09ae56da in LLViewerWindow::initGLDefaults ()
#4 0x09ae41bc in LLViewerWindow::LLViewerWindow ()
#5 0x09dd4d57 in main ()

Also, when running with MESA_DEBUG=1 set, I get the following extra errors printed:
Mesa: User error: GL_INVALID_ENUM in glBindProgramNV/ARB(target)
Mesa: User error: GL_INVALID_ENUM in glProgramStringARB(target)
Mesa: User error: GL_INVALID_ENUM in glGetString
Mesa: User error: GL_INVALID_VALUE in glGetIntegerv(0x864b)

As you're still using MESA, there could be a problem with your drivers. Please, check that after starting X(Free/Org). both modules fglrx and agpgart are loaded.

yus looks like gobaldygook to me except the MESA bit, mesa not good need propreitory ATI or NVIDIA driver installed, its closed source and taints the kernel which some ppl dont like ,but if you ever want SL to run you gotta have true Hardware accelerated X.

If Second Life doesn't run at all with X.org's drivers, what's the point of releasing a Linux client?

Because it will work for most people who are willing to use the binary modules for their video card. You're still using X.org for most of the display work, but the part that communicates directly with the video card has to be proprietary.

If you had a 30Ghz machine you could probably make it run fine with Mesa.

Don't take it TOO seriously... Tux Racer comes with SUSE, and also only runs with the (NVidia) proprietary drivers, cos it needs 3D. Xorg WILL get there... but its not there yet.

I am MOST thankful for the linux client

SL doesn't run at all with Windows's (OpenGL) drivers, yet people don't have problems. Answer, use your video card maker's drivers.

As an Xorg-User (switch 2 weeks ago) I can say that SL does run - and it even runs with ATI cards. So don't shout about the linux client - it's great to have a company release something for linux. Just take the fiddling with your graphic card driver serious and follow the steps for the (proprietary) driver.

Yes, a company that already got about 400-500 USD from me in the past 1.5 years, from land tiers and premium subscription fees

Though I admit, most of that must be operational costs, but still... Not counting the cca. 100 USD I spent for a legal Windows. So I'm finally happy to see some progress on the Linux platform -- too bad it's not there yet, but looks promising.

go ahead and call me an idiot:

What is the command to launch it?

By the way, I dont think this is important but I'm using linspire 5.0 (based on debian)

try "secondlife" from inside the directory you extracted.

Im getting a similar error, but have had some progress in terms of getting SL started. The first time I ran ./secondlife, it wanted me to switch to 32-bit color, something I couldnt do on Linux. Read a few threads, and heard that it was related to direct rendering. If glxinfo says direct rendering = no, you need to enable Xorg's direct rendering capabilities.

My kernel has my intel chipset and agpgart compiled directly to it, not as modules. The driver for my graphics chipset, Radeon 7500 (works in WinXP, trust me) is compiled as a module. I emerged x11-drm, and made sure this was in my xorg.conf:

Section "Module"
    Load "dri"
    Load "glx"
EndSection

Section "Device"
    Driver "radeon"
EndSection

Section "dri"
    Mode 0666
EndSection

After this, the secondlife login window pops up, Im able to enter in my username/password. The problem it seems to have is connecting - It wasn't able to get past "Verifying Protocol Version"

I exited using the "Exit": button on the login screen, and throught it was a problem with user privelages. I su'ed, then re-ran ./secondlife. This time it *almost* generated the login window, but died right at:

INFO: Couldn't initilize mipmap generation
INFO: Couldn't initilize GL_EXT_paletted_texture
INFO: Couldn't initilize GL_NV_vertex_array_range
INFO: Couldn't initilize GL_NV_fence
INFO: Couldn't initilize separate specular color
INFO: Couldn't initilize anisotropic filtering
INFO: remove_marker_file()

and it continued to do this for subsequent runs reguardless of what user I ran it on
The first successful run, the final line, remove_marker_file() is not seen, it is instead:

WARNING: Invalid control RenderUserFarClip

It looks as though the client isnt cleaning up properly after itself. Any insights?
==Chris

Looks like "reinstalling" (read: deleting folder SL was untarred to, then untarring it again) fixed the window-wont-load problem, OOH! And now I can login! YAY

EDIT: I think I isolated the problem, deleting the settings.ini file makes it work as well.
==Chris

Just a quick thought.......... You will find that SL is not the only thing you do in Linux that requires you to make the most of your graphic system. Yeah, it's kind of a pain to install to install a brand new xorg, kernel, etc, and then have to taint is with a "propreitary" driver from the cards manufacturer. However, that is the crux of technology. The information in those drivers is obviouly not gnu, and it has trade secrets of the technology that the company uses to earn a living. Therefore, to release xorg open source, you aren't going to find the stuff in it to make the most of your setup. A quick trip to ATI's or Nvidea's website will fix you up though, and that is something that isn't going to change anytime soon.
