I have a game (SimCity 3000) that I brushed off the dust and wanted to |
2 |
try out in Gentoo. It doesn't like it. I applied the loki updates (which |
3 |
was interesting in and of itself.. loki was using some depreciated |
4 |
options of tail). |

|

According to google, the game is supposed to run with: |
7 |
|
8 |
LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.4 sc3u |
9 |
|
10 |
However, I get an error about unable to load libdl.so.2. However, I get |
11 |
the same error when I do: |
12 |
|
13 |
LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.4 ldd ./games/bin/sc3u |
14 |
|
15 |
ldd should be able to run, however it won't. Same thing with any |
16 |
command. I've tried various values, such as 2.2.5, 2.4.1, 2.4.10, 2.5.1, |
17 |
and 2.6.*. If I choose 2.6.*, then everything works like it should. |
18 |
|
19 |
I made sure I had all the "compat" libraries installed that seemed |
20 |
appropriate. esearch compat, showed me what I could install. |

|
22 |
After more googling, I've learned that some people are getting |
23 |
LD_ASSUME_KERNEL to work, however I believe they are running 2.4 |
24 |
kernels. I also found this mail archive: |

That post was a year ago. Is there any work being done on this? Is it |
29 |
finished? in testing? |
30 |
|
31 |
Is this a 2.6 thing or an NPTL thing? |
32 |
|
33 |
I don't really like using my FC box anymore, but it seems I'll have to |
34 |
keep it around in order to handle situations such as this. |

|
36 |
Suggestions or answers? |
