QE Radiant won't install - xhost message

[sharkzf6]

Tried installing QE Radiant 1.4 for Linux on Hoary. After starting, install fails with this message:
setup.gtk failed to start?
DISPLAY: :0.0
Do you need to issue an xhost + command to let root access X11?
The setup program seems to have failed on x86/glibc-2.1

The instructions say run the install program as root. I used sudo first, then logged in as root and tried, then issued xhost localhost to add the machine to X access. Still same message. Anyone know how to make this work with ubuntu? Thanks.

BTW - I have Doom 3 and Quake 2 installed and running flawlessly with my GF 6800 and 66.29 drivers.

Hi,

by the way linux-radiant-1.4.0.run package is broken! Problem should be found in other place.

To do the trick you should to extract archive in another folder

./linux-radiant-1.4.0.run --target <folder you like>

Now you have a file (setup.gtk) without exec premission:

chmod +x <folder you like>/setup.data/bin/Linux/x86/glibc-2.1/setup.gtk

Now return in <folder you like> and exec

sh setup.sh

All should work (if doesn't work probably you need libgtk1.2 ...)

Bye
