Installation on Ubuntu Feisty worked fine. After an upgrade to Gusty, daphne still worked fine. But when I installed Gusty from scratch and tried to run daphneloader and daphne, neither would work. When running daphne directly, it would complain that the ogg wasn't in stereo and that the game would play with no sound. However, this took a very long time and I had to killed it. I never saw the game play with or without sound. I've since returned to Feisty but I really want to figure this out so I'll try again on another box soon. If anyone has a suggestion, let me know.

Code:
DaphneLoader Launcher : Script dir is .

DaphneLoader failed to start.
Check to make sure that you have the following libraries installed:
  GTK v2
  SDL v1.2
You _may_ need g++ 3.4 installed.

And daphneloader.bin simply exits, obviously with error code 127. GTK and SDL are installed as well as g++ 3.4.

I just did a fresh install of Gutsy and DaphneLoader ran just fine.

What happens when you do "ldd daphneloader.bin" ? Does it say that it's not a dynamic executable? If so, re-download the v1.0 beta for linux from this site and try again.

Code:
ldd daphneloader.bin
        not a dynamic executable


That did the trick. I had this version of Daphne copied to a DVD. It would copy and update correctly on Feisty but not on Gutsy. Thanx Matt! I should have thought of that.

Running into this same issue on Ubuntu 14.04. I've triple checked that the libraries are installed. After running the "ldd daphneloader.bin" command I'm seeing "not a dynamic executable" as a return.

I've tried redownloading the archive from the site and that did not solve the issue. Any advice on what to try next? I'm not seeing any log files generated so can't really tell what is going on in the black box.

Thanks!

I was able to get it to run on Steam OS by installing build-essential. No luck in Ubuntu 14.04.

I fought for weeks trying to get Mint 17 XFCE working.. here's what you need to do - Install emulation station core components and daphne. This will register all the libraries and everything you need to run daphne. Then you can just launch it from terminal. It was painful and a ton of google'n before I said forget it and just did the obvious.

done!
