Error while loading shared libraries

Hello. I'm trying to run Counter-Strike 2D on Lubuntu 16.04 but I have a problem with libraries. I already installed libstdc++5 and libstdc++5:i386 but it didn't help me so maybe someone have an idea which packages I should install?

./CounterStrike2D: error while loading shared libraries: libXxf86vm.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Sounds like you must shall download and install those missing libraries from Synaptic package manager. Firstly, we have to know if those libs are truly missing or maybe they're just 32 bit which they're not usable on a 64 bit OS (unless you install the i386 architecture and few libs for that). Would be appreciated if you could tell us what type of architecture you're using.

Type these following commands below:

sudo apt-get install apt-file
apt-file update
apt-file search <FILENAME>

You might want to run these last two commands with sudo if the Terminal tells you to run at elevated privileges. Finally, install the required missing packages from Synaptic that apt-file tells you. Hope that helps.

First of all thank you for an answer. I'm using 64-bit OS. I thought that if CS2D is 32-bit app then I have to use 32-bit libs and seems that I was wrong. I installed a few packages libglu1-mesa, libfreetype6 and the game finally works.

BTW I installed package libopenal-dev and OpenAL driver wasn't available in the game. Then I installed libopenal-dev:i386 and everything works well. I'm so confused.

I also have same problem in Ubuntu 14.04 64-bit. I already installed lib32z, libXxf86mv, and some C/C++ i386 runtime (libc.so:i386 and others) but it can't find libGL.so

Any pointers?

This might not be what you need, and I would assume you've already tried this, but i've always found this to solve some missing 32bit libraries problems on 64bit based debian/ubuntu machines.

apt-get install ia32-libs

MikuAuahDark: What error did you get exactly? Also, Do you want to run the game?

@ user

Hajt: You told now everythings works, so your problem actually solved?

Yup problem is solved but I have FPS drops. It's super weird because when I'm using Wine to run Counter-Strike 2D in OpenGL mode then I didn't have any lags.

Cirium: Hold on a minute... If I remember correctly, the multiarch technology has been implemented since 2012-13 on most Linux distributions which basically means you could install / use libraries or apps in 32-bit type architecture normally so you don't have to install ia32 libraries since it became a thing of the past.

@ user

Hajt: It's mostly dealt with the DE (Desktop Environment), Unity. That environment isn't really that friendly on most Graphics cards at the start as you have to do many tweaks to be compatible.

Instead to waste my time for this, I'd rather install Compiz setting manager and disable some options where they aren't really useful at all. Here's the link of it (Click me!). Hope that helps you somehow.

GeoB99: I don't know anything about it, but you MUST install 32-bit libs in order to start server or play CS2D.

I may can fix your libGL.so problem btw. If you interested in it, shot a PM.

Cirium: IIRC ia32-libs is removed in Ubuntu and replaced with some packages, so that's not really solve the issue.

@ user

Marcell: Error while loading shared libraries. libGL.so: no such file or directory. That's roughly the error message (I'm currently under Windows). And yes, I want to run the game of course.

@ user

GeoB99: But looks like Ubuntu is an exception.

MikuAuahDark: If your OS doesn't handle 32-bit apps / libs type architectures, then you must add that arch in order to work. Here's how.

First of, you must apply this command written below:

dpkg --print-foreign-architectures

If that doesn't work what I've shown above (doesn't give any output), try with this command.

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386

This will implement the 32-bit type arch in your OS. And finally, type these last commands below.

sudo apt-get install -f
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

If you already did these steps before then you can skip it. And now, let's download and install the LibGL library which CS2D needs it.

sudo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-dev:i386

When you append :i386 in the specific package it means you're attempting to download the package in 32-bit type. See if that helps.

I finally know how's works. If you're using 64-bit OS and your system supports multiarch technology you have to use these packages:

sudo apt-get install libstdc++6:i386 libx11-6:i386 libxxf86vm1:i386 libgl-gst:i386 libfreetype6:i386

And if you want to install OpenAL Sound Driver to get sound in game, type this command (it's dev version of package because rest simply doesn't work):

sudo apt-get install libopenal-dev:i386

It prints "i386" when I execute the first command, so I skipped the second command. However, trying to execute the last command gives me this error
