Game not starting in Ubuntu 15.04

Hi there guys,

Just downloaded the DRM-free build from Humble Bundle for Linux. The game won't start. If I try to start the game via terminal, this is what I get:

error while loading shared libraries: libX11.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I already have the latest version of libX11-6 via apt, but it doesn't seem to matter. For the record, I am using the 64bit version on an AMD fx-8350 processor.

Thanks beforehand

I fixed it myself,

the problem was I had unpacked the game files in a custom folder rather than in the folder where it was expected to be unpacked (which isn't mentioned anywhere, so I don't really know how 11bit expects linux users to use the DRM-free version). What I did was create symbolic links to a couple of library files the game could not find (both related to the X window system) in the unpacked directory. Also, I needed to install the 32-bit version of these libraries, since the 64bit version won't work. Now, when I start the game, I get:

Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Impressive, isn't it? I must say I am flattered by the huge support 11bit has given when it comes to Linux. Guess I'll have to investigate myself.

Alright,

apparently the linking process was not necessary. Having the 32bit libraries installed will do. However, it still throws a Segmentation Fault error, so I can't really start the game.

I hope someone finds a solution soon, although judging from the general appearance of this forum, this thread will be found by treasure hunters in the future.

Hi Dechcaudron.
You have a multi-arch system? Mostly of games have only 32-bit binaries. Then you must install the 32-bit libraries as mesa:i386, LibX11:i386, etc.
With multi-arch you can have both libraries installed 32 and 64 bits.
I have installed Debian and for install Steam, Skype or games need the 32-bit binary system.

This is bug affects every Ubuntu 15.04 user. I've been playing TWoM flawlessly since launch day. But I installed Ubuntu 15.04 (64 bit edition) on a new computer and TWoM does not start anymore.

It seems the problem is related to a missing file in TWoM installation folder. You can find more details here:

I have NOT been able to play the game even after following the steps described on the link, so I will need to wait for 11bit studios to fix this bug :cry:
