Fedora 5 problem

Hi,

I am running Fedora 5 and get the follwing error message when trying to run SL:

bin/secondlife-bin: error while loading shared libraries: lib/libfreetype.so.6: cannot restore segment prot after reloc: Permission denied

Thanks.

You should run the script ./secondlife and NOT ./bin/secondlife-bin !

It's an selinux issue, as root try before you start the program
/usr/sbin/setenforce 0
then
/usr/sbin/setenforce 1
to put it back again

hth.

Hi, this is my output of ./senconlife inside ferora 5:

what can I do?

TIA

Start by enabling accelerated rendering in X. Follow a tutorial online that is specific to your distribution and video card, and check to make sure it is working by referencing the output of the glxinfo command with a proper looking output you can find online.

When trying to run SL on Fedora Core 5, I get the following error. I have
/usr/lib/libdb-4.3.so installed and don't want to downgrade if possible.

bin/secondlife-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libdb-4.2.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

any thoughts or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Kyle

Kyle,
I had the same problem, I just made a symbolic link to the newer library, and it worked like a charm for me.

# ln -s /usr/lib/libdb-4.2.so /usr/lib/libdb-4.3.so

Good Luck!

Alison

Alison,
Thanks! Boy do I feel like a dolt for not doing that up front
Cheers,
Kyle

instead of disabling selinux you can change the type in the security context of the libraries.
run this command to change the context type of the libraries:
chcon -t textrel_shlib_t lib/lib*
