GLBasic executable on VirtualBox

Linux Mint 17 Cinnamon with standard repositories, this is all that I need to install to get old GLBasic executables to run.

That should be the one.  If you dont have libstdc++ and whatnot installed as well, go for the std-mixer-dev version (as that should install everything needed).

libstdc++ etc. was not needed for me, guess its either shipped with Mint 17, or not needed anymore with GLBsic (statically linked). Libsdl-mixer1.2 was the only thing that I needed to install. And it has been this way for at least 2 years now IIRC.

It should come with most systems now, although it is being replaced with newer versions.

Linux Mint 17 will run glbasic executables which were compiled in windows, using wine on Linux, works good better than in windows lmao.
What it doesnt do is run .linux distributions.
And GLBasic itself doesnt work so great in wine on linux.

Hemlos try Vmware (VmPlayer it's free) for GLbasic, I put a post, and goes very fine, better than Virtual Box.

I think GLbasic runs more faster with WINE and Linux, I think when compile runs more faster than windows , but for me the problems are the keys, seems are distributed in another way different of windows, but I practically the 98% of time compile for Windows then isn't problem works under Wine and Linux.

If you want for native app for Linux, use in example the version 7 of GLBasic, for me don't it's too much problem because I use practically the same commands actually than those times.

I do a test compiling for Linux from VmWare and I have the same error when I compiled under Virtual Box, Problems of SDL or OpenGL,

I use that for fedora and my school because they built an appliance and thats the way they use it.

I will just compile win32 binaries in windows 7 anyway.

I think i mislead you, my experience was referencing the native linux os, Mint 17 Qiana, not a virtual version.
What do you mean version 7 ????

Same here, for native os.

Gernot is aware of this issue, and he has mentioned he needs to fix it.  <3

The 3th point I want say, Using GLbasic Version 7, under windows you can make Linux executables working...
You compile for Linux and this works in Linux, not like in this last versions, I think from 11 or 12 version Linux don't wants works...  :(

Yep, I read Gernnot it's working on the little problem... In fact I think for sell some game for Linux have to be more greater than for a mobile device, or sell a good Application, perhaps something for Arduino can be a good option or a Lightweight 3D Modeler like Silo or Void World (this disappears in less 2 moths and really was a really very good soft). :(

OK, fixed the startup problem for linux apps we had in V12.


Hemlos

Thanks gernot, it works.
My NOAAGOES now compiles the ditribute.linux and runs in linux.

Doesnt seem to work on 32 bit machines, is this normal?

i moved this topic into bug reports...

Do you have SDL_mixer installed ?  What comes up when the program is run through terminal ?

Runs quite fine for me. Tested Linux Mint 17 32bit in VMware.
