Hey, hey Steam did it again. In newest beta they added support for 64bit games, so now they ship steam-runtime with Steam installation, just checked you don't need any more workarounds to play PA (to play I needed libcurl and libudev workarounds). Edit: crashupload work too.
Ubuntu 13.10 beta here, NVIDIA 319 proprietary drivers, i7 3770k, geforce 670. When I click play on steam, nothing happens. When I try to run PA manually, I get a black window, and this in the terminal: Code: ~/.local/share/Steam/SteamApps/common/Planetary Annihilation$ ./PA [15:46:39.953] INFO Log file /home/klemen/.local/share/Steam/SteamApps/common/Planetary Annihilation/media/user/log/PA-15-46-39.953.txt opened [15:46:39.953] INFO Loaded 0 mods [15:46:40.024] INFO GL_VENDOR: NVIDIA Corporation [15:46:40.024] INFO GL_RENDERER: GeForce GTX 670/PCIe/SSE2 [15:46:40.024] INFO GL_VERSION: 4.3.0 NVIDIA 319.32 [15:46:40.024] INFO GL_SHADING_LANGUAGE_VERSION: 4.30 NVIDIA via Cg compiler [15:46:40.024] INFO Gamma correct pipeline enabled.

First you can't run game though Steam because of this bug: FS#2100 Right now game is not compatible with Steam runtime, I want to believe this will be fixed soon. "Could not find libudev. /home/klemen/.local/share/Steam/SteamApps/common/Planetary Annihilation/host/CoherentUI_Host: error while loading shared libraries: libudev.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" This is main problem why you can't run it without Steam, game trying to find libudev.so.0, but on 13.10 libudev have different filename. You might fix it with proper symlink.
And this should be fixed now, without a work around. Let us know if that's not the case for any ubuntu or variants.
Is there a way for them to fix that though? Ubuntu provides libudev.so.0 and so the game gets built against it. If another Linux OS doesn't provide it, the fix has to be done user-side to be compatible.
With the latest update, the game is now launching from Steam on Ubuntu 13.10, but it seems to be stuck on this screen: i.imgur.com/0yfcGoT.png Launching from the terminal works normally.
Game is not working on Ubuntu 13.04 for me. It launches game from steam but only opens a blank window.
Standalone works on Gentoo/~amd64 Requires libudev.so.0 hack to work. Note to Uber: This copy/symlink nonsense is a really nonsensical way of working around this issue. *.so.0 means the original version of the API, *.so.1 means the API may have changed and compatibility is not assured. The recent version bump on Coherent doesn't appear to have fixed this. Either 1. target Steam runtime (which doesn't appear to include libudev), 2. given your software is a binary blob include the necessary libraries to make your software run as part of the software or 3. file a bug upstream to get them to update to the modern (and most likely to be present going forward) version of the library. Needs various things like 32bit flash with nspluginwrapper to work fully. Still throws various errors to command line.
I suspect you are suffering from the libudev issue. You can symlink/copy it to provide an interim fix. Given the coverage of this issue and beta nature of the software I would suggest you please do a little more research in the future.
Ubuntu 12.04 LTS 64 bit, stock kernel, A10 APU with Catalysts from 13.4 through 13.11 beta are all giving the same result - a black window with some background sounds. Running the game from a terminal or in any other weird way doesn't change it's behavior. libudev0 and libudev:i386 packages are both present and installed. Am I missing something here? PS. Attached some logs
Tried installing OSS radeon driver with the latest graphics firmware. Now I have a nice blue in-game cursor in that black window instead of a system one when it gets above it but that's it. I guess that means that the game is currently unplayable on my hardware. PS. Steam overlay works perfectly regardless of the driver - at least some content in that infinite blackness
I'm totally sure that game is playable on open source driver. I'm using it myself your card is using R600 too. Let's try to find out what happen with FOSS driver? Can you try to run PA directly and then check logs again? Also you can check this topic: https://forums.uberent.com/threads/black-screen-ubuntu-13-04.52558/
Oh wow, running it from a terminal really did a trick, thanks. The game is still unplayable though but for a different reasons. Sending a new pack of logs and a few screenshots. PS. Cursor is a nearly disintegrated white square between planets, lol, and it's a real pain to aim with it actually - don't know why screenshots took a system cursor instead of it. EDIT: The game runs in windowed mode regardless of the settings.
Most of graphical bugs you might see caused by outdated Mesa: Code: [22:49:38.826] INFO GL_VERSION: 2.1 Mesa 9.0.3 If you don't want to wait before game will work with proprietary drivers you need do that: Get latest Mesa and kernel, enable DPM, then configure it for best performance: https://forums.uberent.com/threads/black-screen-ubuntu-13-04.52558/ Check my post in this topic. Use Debugger to bypass problem with cursor as explained here: https://forums.uberent.com/threads/linux-foss-drivers-issues-and-fixes.51007/#post-779846 From same topic grab sun shader fix and also features (trees, stones, etc) shader fix: https://forums.uberent.com/threads/linux-foss-drivers-issues-and-fixes.51007/page-3#post-802318 After fixes applied open source drivers have only few tiny problems (bugged shadows, few black lines on textures borders), but game is perfectly playable. This one is easy fixable. Fullscreen not implemented for Linux, can be easily replaced by WM.
Managed to configure a system/driver with Liquorix 3.11 kernel, new Mesa from xorg-edgers PPA etc Thanks for the links provided, but I need a clarification on one more thing: What is that supposed to mean? I haven't found anything even remotely similar to this in the Debugger's UI.
Sorry, I'm need to fix this port for new version (atlases not named anymore). Just one each link to "Coherent UI View" and all icons/cursors will be fixed.
With the latest update, I'm getting a black window again. This is getting ridiculous.
