Carson Moore wrote:I am very excited about this so I tried to get it to run. I have been wanting to switch to Linux from Windows and only eve was keeping me from that so yesterday I installed the latest Linux Mint with Cinnamon on my machine after verifying the launcher and client worked just fine on my Manjaro VM (very slow though). After a clean install of Mint the launcher starts up but when i click "play" it changes the triangle next to my account to a square and the statusbar is doing its animation, but it never actually launches the client. After a while the square turns back into a triangle and it is like I never pressed the "play" button. I have a feeling that I am missing something. I am running on an i5 with a AMD radeon r9. I tried installing the latest drivers by AMD but the installer says it is incompatible to my version of X. The driver I tried comes from here: http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/linux Mint comes with a different version of the same driver, which I have installed. Thanks for any help!
By default the launcher uses a local installation of Wine on your computer, you need all libraries for the game to run. I encountered the same problem as you to begin with.
On Arch Linux i ensured that everything was installed with this command. sudo pacman -S $(expac "%n %o" -S wine) wine_gecko wine-mono Which just means install Wine with all optional dependencies and then wine gecko and mono packages locally.
The optional dependencies that might have done the trick, though i did not check: lib32-libldap, lib32-libpulse, lib32-mpg123.

Ubuntu 15.10, EVE Launcher 1046098. To get the IGB to work with https, had to install libgnutls-dev:i386 and run "ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgnutls.so .../path/to/evelauncher/libgnutls.so.26". No other packages were required, but I already have EVE installed and working.
Seems like creating the libgnutls.so.26 symlink (in evelauncher, not in /usr/lib) could be automated if you cannot figure out how to link Wine against unversioned libgnutls.so. But I don't know how to do that cleanly.
Why does the launcher create a SharedCache directory one level above the evelauncher directory? (Eg. if extracted to /home/user/evelauncher, then running /home/user/evelauncher/evelauncher.sh will create /home/user/SharedCache.) It does not appear to be used.
The system tray icon is broken (image-missing is shown instead), but the menu works. (With the Windows launcher under Wine, the icon is shown but their is no menu.) "Show in File Browser" (labeled as "Show in Explorer" in the Windows launcher) has no sub-entries; though when access through the E icon in the upper-right of the Launcher window, it does have sub-entries. ("Network diagnostics" options for ping and traceroute are broken, but that's probably low priority.) "Start LogLite" works, but running LogLite.sh does not (was that "/bin" in its LD_PREFIX_PATH left from a previous version?).
I toyed around with desktop files and icons and ended up with a script to install them plus the launcher. (It works on FreeBSD 10.2 and Ubuntu 15.10 here, and I tried to make it generic.)

Apart of the shared cache, can I copy also the normal game files? :) (before running the script)

Thanks a lot, I just did a 'apt-get install wine' and it works.
However, when I go to the display settings it only shows a single screen even through I have two screens attached to my Radeon. It also says that the graphics card is an ATI Radion 5600 series but its actually an R9.
What do I need to do to multibox? |

Works like a charm!
I have LinuxMint 17.2 desktop which has sat unused (and unupdated) for almost a year. Switched the GPU driver to nvidia binary driver version 352.62 from the driver management and just ran ./evelauncher.sh and logged in. I have wine 1.7.55 installed but no steam installed so got a message about that and also it couldn't find locales for Qt but it runs! |

Coming from a working (including IGB) EVE installation under wine 1.9.11 (libldap already installed) this launcher and the client started-up fine. However, I ran into the same issues with the IGB crashing as some other people in this thread:

+1 This fixed my crashes, as well!
Do keep in mind to set the correct wine prefix when you run winetricks. For example:
WINEPREFIX='/home/USERNAME/.eve/wineenv' winetricks corefonts tahoma
As for the "libgnutls" library: If you've symlinked it and it's still not working, double check that you've really linked the 32bit version! For example on an arch-based distro:
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libgnutls.so /usr/lib/libgnutls.so.26 does not work.
However,
sudo ln -s /usr/lib32/libgnutls.so /usr/lib32/libgnutls.so.26 does work (for me)! |

One should check the location of the libs before typing commandes from the Internet :)
32 bits libs can be in /lib or /lib32 64 bits libs can be in /lib or /lib64

I tried this new launcher and it works great. Thank you so much for making this work!
Because there was no way to change the shared cache folder in this launcher, I made a link to the folder where my old cache was and named it ".eve" in my profile. Now it uses the old cache location (on another drive) just fine without issues.
The only other issue is copying my settings from my old clients to the new launcher. When I go to the "client settings" in this launcher, the old settings are not there to copy into the new launcher's profiles. Where should I put them so they will show up and allow me to import them. |

I do have an issue: the launcher doesn't seem to persist profiles. Did I mess something up or do we have to reconfigure overview settings et al. on every start up? |

confirming that issuing (had to stop running clients before)
WINEPREFIX='/home/USERNAME/.eve/wineenv' winetricks corefonts tahoma
fixed the issue with the market as well as making the ingame browser useable on http connections. https connections now report error code -9. |

That is likely due to Wine not finding libgnutls.so.26. See discussions about that earlier in this thread.

Gathered notes on using this launcher with Debian Jessie 64Bit ...
If I got this right users of Debian Jessie 64Bit should be able to get relevant dependencies by issuing the following commands:
root@machine:~# dpkg --add-architecture i386 root@machine:~# apt-get update [...] root@machine:~# apt install libgnutls-deb0-28:i386 libldap-2.4-2:i386 libwine:i386 wine32:i386 [...] This adds support for 32Bit architecture thus making the packages available. It will not change your system otherwise and you will need to specify whenever you want any package from that architecture. After updating the available packages the last command installs wine + a few in their 32Bit versions and thus also all needed libraries. Might be possible to use less than installing a complete wine, but this seems to work at least.
Now install the launcher. Afterwards consider the following steps (thx to Kismeteer for these) ...
- To keep your settings, move the according settings-folder(s) (you might have several, each one has the folders "settings" and "cache") from $HOME/.wine/drive_c/users/$USER/Local Settings/Application Data/CCP/EVE to $HOME/.eve/wineenv/drive_c/users/$USER/Local Settings/Application Data/CCP/EVE/c_tq_tranquility (name it like settings_YOURNAME and you will be able to choose between different ones in the launcher with YOURNAME).
- To keep your old logs in the same place as the new ones (from chats etc.) copy/move $HOME/EVE to $HOME/Documents/EVE.
And you will need the above mentioned (thx AnTiZ Sunji for this)
WINEPREFIX='/home/USERNAME/.eve/wineenv' winetricks corefonts tahoma to get the fonts, which will make the ingame browser work in general (non-https connections) and provide the prices in the market history.
For the ingame browser to become capable of https you can provide a fake link to address the currently hard-coded dependency. The client currently will _only_ look for a library named libgnutls.so.26 it seems, but the ones installed have other names and versions. You can do the following to "dirty fix" this, but this might affect other applications and is not a proper solution. That said, find out how your library is named (might yield different results for you):
root@machine:~# find /usr/lib -iname "libgnutls*" /usr/lib/vlc/plugins/misc/libgnutls_plugin.so /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgnutls-deb0.so.28.41.0 /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgnutls-deb0.so.28 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgnutls-openssl.so.27 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgnutls-deb0.so.28.41.0 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgnutls-openssl.so.27.0.2 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgnutls-deb0.so.28
You are looking for the 32Bit version (i386). I tried to link the /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgnutls-deb0.so.28 as /usr/lib/libgnutls.so.26 like this:
root@machine:~# ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgnutls-deb0.so.28 /usr/lib/libgnutls.so.26
Iit actually works concerning the ingame browser and https. Remember though if you do this, that this is a manual and dirty hack that you will need to remember and adjust/remove later. So while not a proper solution, this seems to provide a workaround for the time being ... |

I know you're looking for 'it didn't work' reports to try and help us out, but wanted to let you know, it worked like a charm. I'm a bit surprised actually, as even the CQ is working correctly. Mint 17.3 running Kernel 4.6.1 on AMD FX-8350 with an AMD HD8870 on my desktop, and a A4-3320M (HD 6480G on die) on my laptop.
As I can't say it runs 100% flawlessly, to report what I can, if I run in terminal, after initial run where it setup first-run information, it complains about not finding QT locales, and it can't find Steam API information, but neither have any effect on my usage. Those are the only things I've seen so far.
Your effort is really appreciated. |

Your effort is really appreciated. Thanks, it's always nice to hear about the good things as well as the problems. You tend to get a skewed view of the world from the forums where people usually go to get help for issues.
Those errors from Qt and Steam are harmless, I just haven't found a way to silence them.

On a fresh install of Ubuntu-mate 16.04 LTS on an i7-6700K - NVIDIA GTX980 with 4K 28" monitor, i needed only the native new launcher installation. (no PPA adding for wine/wine-staging at all!)
It works *perfectly*. @CCPSnorlax: thank you for your work, and let me say, you are very close (beside dx9/11 problems) to have a potential semi-official deployable installer for Linux as you probably have for Mac.
For Linux you can always count on our little community. As you noticed, the community support here is generally very competent and very willing ;)
Hoping you will update the wine part too as soon as the wine/wine-dev sources will be available and with important patches.
EDIT: and you have the time and the will to do it ofc!
Again: great work! |

I only just today noticed I was even running the outdated "WinXP" launcher on Linux...
A quick duckduckgo search brought me here and unzipping + simply running the script was all that was needed to get the new launcher experience.
Big thumbs up and THANKS! :)
Also: I have been playing EVE on Archlinux for years now. Without your "free" time going to getting the new launcher working on Linux, CCP would have had one subscription less. ;) |

I am having trouble getting two clients on two screens to work. The only thing I managed to do was to set the second client to "windowed" instead of "Fixed Window" and then dragging that client to the other screen.
When I then switch to "Fixed Window" it works but only until I click the "Close Window" button which will then move the client over to the main screen.
Under Windows I can simply select the Display Adapter on which to display the client (It shows two) and it will automatically switch to that display. In Linux it only shows one adapter.
I read that there are wine command line parameters that you can pass to set a client to a certain screen but since the launching of the client is handled by the launcher I don't know how to accomplish that.
Any advice? |

Hello there! I am currently running xubuntu and followed the standard install guide. Launcher will start and update apparently without any problem. I login and then, I hit play and seems like there's the client about to launch (Play icon changes to Stop icon) and after a short while, the launcher becomes idle again > Stop icon changes to Play. From this I notice the client closed unexpectedly.
Also, I am running an Nvidia gtx460 with 2 displays. I am pretty noob on Linux, but until now I have done fairly good. Would love to run EVE on Linux as this is the OS I love.
I have seen that other users had trouble with the lib32gnutls but couldn't figure out how to install it, Could you provide any help, please?
Thanks in advance. |
