core dump installing planeshift

[regor210]

Just installed Feisty Kubuntu and I cant intall PLaneshift.
I use this to start planeshift as i have done 10 or more times with Edgy.

sudo chmod a+x planeShift_CBV0.3.018.bin

sudo ./PlaneShift_CBV0.3.018.bin

The Planeshift installer starts then crashes giving me this Segmentation fault (core dumped)

I tried down loading from 2 different sources and installing it, with no luck.

It allways worked on Edgy.

The 2 computers I have tried to install planeshift on are using Feisty Kubuntu with Nvidia drivers. One is a Dell Dimension 4100 P3 with a 64M video GeForce2 and the other is a Dell Dimension 4600 P4 with a 128m GeForce4. The 3d drivers are working on both computers and work fine with other games.

Ok here is the deal.
planeshift can be install in text mode using this

sudo chmod a+x PlaneShift_CBV0.3.018.bin

sudo ./PlaneShift_CBV0.3.018.bin --mode text

The bad news is, Don't put it in your /home/nameDir or it will mess up your permissions and it will not let you back in.

Or just don't run it as root.

[regor210]

./PlaneShift_CBV0.3.018.bin

Still gives me a Segmentation fault (core dump).

Using

./PlaneShift_CBV0.3.018.bin --mode text

and installing planeshift in /home/"your name DIR"/planeshift

is the way to go. Iordhebe is right!

so to install planeshift use


sudo chmod a+x PlaneShift_CBV0.3.018.bin

./PlaneShift_CBV0.3.018.bin --mode text

when the installer asks where to install it use

/home/"your name DIR"/planeshift
