Can't run Processing in Ubuntu 10.04LTS 64 bit

in Integration and Hardware • 3 years ago

Noob to Processing and Linux. I have Processing running on my netbook, which is running Ubuntu Karmic 9.10. I can't get Processing to start on my desktop which is running Ubuntu Lucid 10.04LTS 64bit. Installed Java JDK 1.6. What am I missing?

i installed 64 bit Lucid specifically because someone on the old forum was having trouble. and it was fine. i used the sun java packages.

run it from the command line and post any messages that appear.

I think I had this problem, and solved it by installing the ia32-libs package: sudo apt-get install ia32-libs in a terminal window should do it, or use the package manager.

Processing-1.1
Java 6 JDK
Receiving this error message:

bash: ./processing: Permission denied

There are no permissions (as far as I know) on any of the files/folders.

I also apt-get installed ia32-libs, no luck.

make sure the processing script is executable

you can set the x flag by calling

sudo chmod a+x processing

in the processing folder

That did the trick. I never would have figured it out on my own. Thanks!

Do your libraries example work? Not on mine.

Thanks, chr

OpenGL library examples will not work because I haven't yet had free time to add support for 64-bit Linux (or Windows, or OS X for that matter). In the meantime you can swap the OpenGL libraries by hand, but the issue is being tracked here:

Larry Kyrala published a neat little script for unbundling the 64 bit opengl libraries. Which I've used to good effect running OPENGL examples etc on my AMD64Bit kubuntu box (I am using proprietary NVIDIA graphics driver direct from manufacturer rather than using ubuntu loader). All looks rather good so far ( still same glitch with ruby-processing, you can only run opengl at fullscreen on linux).

hey guys, just want to share my own experience on this.

I'm running Ubuntu Linux 10.04LTS 64 bits on a macbook pro with NVidia geforce 320M graphics. So same problem when trying to use opengl sketches. The solution I found was to download the jogl-1.1.1a-linux-amd64.zip package from the old jogl website, and then replace the following library files:

libgluen-rt.so

libjogl.so

libjogl_awt.so

libjogl_cg.so

in <processing bin folder>/libraries/opengl/library with the ones provided in the zip. This solved the problem, everything that is opengl related seems to work fine, including Cg shaders. I should also note that I'm using the processing pre-release 190.

those are all probably in the amd64 jar in that same directory and which came as part of the download. it's a pity it's not intelligent enough to know which jar to use...
