I went with the Windows setup. I have not been able to get this working in Ubuntu.

Such a disappointment.

Could someone please try to install this, on a fresh copy of Ubuntu 64-bit? The commands are:



duser@ubuntu:~$ mkdir ~/cgview
duser@ubuntu:~$ cd ~/cgview
duser@ubuntu:~/cgview$ tar xzvf...

Dude, what's Dr. Who?

How did you install that? Was it installed in Ubuntu?

From my experience with installing Arch, once I figured out all the steps/problems, the installation time was not a problem. Installation was a breeze after that because I had memorized the steps...

Oh I've got an idea....

If you have a spare PC somewhere, if you could try to install this on a fresh installation of Ubuntu 12.10 64-bit (only system updates applied, no other changes made), then...

Ok, here is what it gave me:


duser@ubuntu:~$ what-provides libSM.so.6
libsm6:amd64: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libSM.so.6
libsm6:amd64: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libSM.so.6.0.1
duser@ubuntu:~$...

I should say that before I went through all these steps, I unstalled opengl using:


sudo apt-get remove libqt4-opengl

I restarted and then went through all the steps.

Did you keep opengl?

I just compared our outputs for
ldd ./cgview I can't see what is missing or different.

Right, here it is:


duser@ubuntu:~/cgview$ ldd ./libborqt-6.9.0-qt2.3.so
linux-gate.so.1 => (0xf7765000)
libXext.so.6 => /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libXext.so.6 (0xf700d000)
libX11.so.6 =>...

No luck. Here is the output:



duser@ubuntu:~/cgview$ ln -s libborqt-6.9.0-qt2.3.so libborqt-6.9-qt2.3.so
duser@ubuntu:~/cgview$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. ./cgview
./cgview: symbol lookup error:...

XUbuntu
LUbuntu
Linux Mint Debian Edition

You may also want to consider Bodhi Linux. It is based on Ubuntu and it uses Enlightenment.

Well, if Ubuntu(-based) is out, then:

Debian
MacPup
Manjaro Linux XFCE version (is it based on Ubuntu???)
Zenwalk (XFCE)
Linux Mint Debian Edition (this might be a bit too heavy)

Okay, here's the commands I am planning to run, in order:



duser@ubuntu:~$ mkdir ~/cgview
duser@ubuntu:~$ cd ~/cgview
duser@ubuntu:~/cgview$ tar xzvf ~/cgview-2.4.0-eng.tar.gz...

^^^^^I ran those commands but it indicated that nothing was available for update.....everything was already installed.


duser@ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get install libX11-6 libX11-6:i386
[sudo]...

Just tried all that and got back to the first error message:


buser@ubuntu:~/cgview$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. ./cgview
./cgview: symbol lookup error: ./cgview: undefined symbol: initPAnsiStrings...

Okay, I did that and got the same error message.

Found these dependencies:


duser@ubuntu:~/cgview$ ldd ./cgview | grep -i "not found"
libGL.so.1 => not found
libX11.so.6 => not found...

Okay, so I wiped out my Ubuntu 12.10 and re-installed it, ran all updates and then ran through your 6 steps.

The last step gives me the following error:

duser@ubuntu:~/cgview$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=....

So presumably you downloaded it into home/cgview. Correct?

Was that on 12.10?

Does the order of your steps 4 and 5 make a difference? I mean, I have already run step 5, but not step 4.

Thanks.

What graphics card, and driver, are you using?

I've got onboard Intel video.

What graphics card, and driver, are you using with Precise 64-bit?

Ok, so I now did steps 5 and 6:
STEP 5: in the directory ~/Downloads/cgview:


ln -s libborqt-6.9.0-qt2.3.so libborqt-6.9-qt2.3.so


STEP 6: in the directory ~/Downloads/cgview:

Here is what I have tried on Ubuntu 12.10 64-bit:

Manually created a new folder in Downloads called cgview and put the *.tar.gz file there. Then:



$ sudo apt-get install ia32-libs
$ cd...

Sorry for the questions....I am not incredibly comfortable with the terminal.



The User Manual indicates:


Copy and Make Symbolic link in /usr/lib.
[ /usr/local/cgview ]# cp...

In which folder was the .tar.gz file downloaded - was it the Downloads folder? Was a folder created in /usr/local (as the user manual indicated), or did you just use the Downloads folder?
