RE: Couldn't find any suitable frontend - Urkle - 05-08-2010 try Code: ./Downloads/penumbra_overture_1.1.sh -f ncurses Code: ./Downloads/penumbra_overture_1.1.sh -f fltk and I just checked though and the version of nixstaller I'm using doesn't have the old libstdc++ requirement of previous versions.. it only depends on libc and X. IF neither of those two above work try this Code: ./Downloads/penumbra_overture_1.1.sh --keep --target TEMP --noexec Then run Code: ldd TEMP/bin/linux/*/*/* and paste the output here.

Ok. Go into the TEMP directory and run the startupinstqller.sh script. And then rerun the ldd statementp (you should have more binaries) RE: Couldn't find any suitable frontend - kweinert - 05-08-2010 (05-08-2010, 03:36 PM)Urkle Wrote: Ncurses and flak are statically linked so no need to install them. Ah, didn't realize that and just wanted to be sure. So, I run the startupinstaller.sh script and it installs. Now I have a different problem (not all the image shows on the screen) but I'll head back to the forum to look for a solution to that. Best not to pollute this thread with a non-related branch. My issue is resolved, but feel free to contact me if you have something you'd like me to test out so the installer works without having to run this workaround.

I'm going to link this thread with to the author of the installer I'm using to see if he can make any sense out of it.. But glad it finally installed. oh.. I wonder if you didn't have enough disk space in your tmp dir??? RE: Couldn't find any suitable frontend - kweinert - 05-08-2010 Code: df /tmp Good thought - I don't know how much is needed. Seems like a strange error message for an out of space error, especially since the md5sum is checked after unpacking. Could be a later step though. Thanks again for your help in getting it resolved. RE: Couldn't find any suitable frontend - Snospar - 06-02-2010 Just wanted to confirm that I had exactly the same issue on Ubuntu 9.10 (with the correct 32-bit libs installed) and it was caused by a lack of space on /tmp. For info, I had less than 512MB space when the install failed and when I increased the /tmp size to 1G the problem was solved. A less cryptic message from the installer would be nice RE: Couldn't find any suitable frontend - Urkle - 06-03-2010 I'll pass that along to the developer.. another option would be to pass a --target parameter when running the install script so it uses a different directory for extracting the installer. |
