I am trying to install RWR on my laptop and it wont launch. It runs fine on my desktop in kubuntu. My laptop is running xubuntu. It has an integrated gpu (intel HD4400) and an i7 4500u.
I am going out of town and would love to be able to play rwr while I am away. Any thoughts??
thank you
This is the error I am getting:

Looks like libXrandr isn't bundled with RWR.
Have you tried installing it manually? If you've got a 64-bit system, you'd install the 32-bit libXrandr with something like
apt-get install libxrandr2:i386

If it's 32-bit system, just omit :i386.

I'm really taking a stab in the dark here, but what happens if you rename RunningWithRifles/lib/libxcb.so.1 to something else to make the game not use it and thus use a similar lib found in the system instead?

Nice, one more to remove/rename then I believe: RunningWithRifles/lib/libz.so.1
That one has been an issue earlier e.g. here viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1922, I think there was another case as well. I suppose I should just remove that from the lib bundling.

Just to let you know : I had a similar problem.
I'm using a Alienware 14 laptop wich has dual GPU. One integrated and one Nvidia.
On Windows, I could force to use the Nvidia GPU by switching with the keyboard key. But under Ubuntu, I coudn't switch, even when using the launch uption primusrun %command%. I was able to play, but with really poor framerate even if my i965 driver was loaded. So I dug around and found this thread. Deleted the libz file and now everything is working, even BumbleBee (primusrun).
Thanks for the tip !

Hi,
I am posting because I had a similar issue, and the solution here worked for me. I hope this helps someone.
Fedora 23 beta 64-bit
Running ./launch_game gave following errors:
An exception has occurred!
OGRE EXCEPTION(7:InternalErrorException): Could not load dynamic library lib/RenderSystem_GL.so. System Error: /lib/libxcb-render.so.0: undefined symbol: xcb_str_sizeof in DynLib::load at /build/buildd/ogre-1.7.2/OgreMain/src/OgreDynLib.cpp (line 91)
so I renamed the files in ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/RunningWithRifles/lib
renaming libxcb.so.1 made the problem go away.
I was able to start the game, then I saw some slow frames in the menu.
renaming libz.so.1 actually made the menu faster.
Then, I had no audio.
ALSA lib dlmisc.c:254:(snd1_dlobj_cache_get) Cannot open shared library /usr/lib/alsa-lib/libasound_module_pcm_pulse.so
ALSA lib dlmisc.c:254:(snd1_dlobj_cache_get) Cannot open shared library /usr/lib/alsa-lib/libasound_module_pcm_pulse.so
AL lib: alsa.c:587: Could not open playback device 'default': No such device or address
I actually tried installing some alsa-plugins-*.i686 packages, because I thought some 32-bit libs packages were missing in Fedora 64-bit. Not sure if it helped. In the end, I just launched it from Steam client and the sound was there.
Nice, one more to remove/rename then I believe: RunningWithRifles/lib/libz.so.1
That one has been an issue earlier e.g. here http://www.modulaatio.com/runningwithri ... f=5&t=1922, I think there was another case as well. I suppose I should just remove that from the lib bundling.

Maybe you should consider the lib bundling a bit more. Maybe a more detailed wiki page for Linux users concerning missing libs, packages would also help. Maybe I can help.
I hope this helps someone.
