..:: PCSX2 Forums ::..

Oioyo,

I'm trying to understand all the requisites to make pcsx2 work. Actually, my problem seems to be the GL plugin (libGSdx-0.1.16.so ?) doesn't seem to load.

Starting pcsx2:

Code:

When opening the plugins configuration window, I have this more:

Some kinda plugin failure: /home/fab/jeux/playstation2/plugins/libGSdx-0.1.16.so

I'm reading on this page: http://pcsx2.net/download/releases/linux.html

Quote:Dependencies:
gtk2, opengl, libbz2, libjpeg, glew-dev, libxxf86vm-dev, x11proto-xf86vidmodeautomake and autoconf (version >= 1.9) Nvidia Cg-Toolkit (link), libasound-dev, joystick

If I'm not wrong, these deps are for compiling, not for running. Since the page itself distributes the build, it is a bit misleading.

However I understand I might need a few libs, including 32 bits ones (I have multi-arch enabled), like:

Code:
# apt-cache policy libglew1.10

libglew1.10:

  Installé : 1.10.0-3

  Candidat : 1.10.0-3

 Table de version :

 *** 1.10.0-3 0

        500 http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/ testing/main amd64 Packages

        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

Code:
# apt-cache policy libglew1.10:i386

libglew1.10:i386:

  Installé : 1.10.0-3

  Candidat : 1.10.0-3

 Table de version :

 *** 1.10.0-3 0

        500 http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/ testing/main i386 Packages

        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

This doesn't seem to help however, what am I missing ?

Since I'm trying to run pcsx2 on some low-end Sandy Bridge, I'm also attaching some MESA related infos I have.

yes you need the 32bits libs and get a newer version (at least of gsdx)

You need at least Mesa 10. Also don't expect a playable speed with that cpu.

Okay, I had libglew1.10 but libglew1.7 was necessary, and only available on Wheezy.

Code:
# apt-file search libportaudio.so.2

libportaudio2: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libportaudio.so.2

libportaudio2: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libportaudio.so.2.0.0

# apt-file search libCg.so

libcg: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libCg.so

# apt-file search libSoundTouch.so.0

libsoundtouch0: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libSoundTouch.so.0

libsoundtouch0: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libSoundTouch.so.0.0.0

# apt-file search libCgGL.so        

libcggl: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libCgGL.so

# apt-file search libGLEW.so.1.7

(no result because only available on Wheezy ( http://packages.debian.org/wheezy/libglew1.7 )

# apt-file search libGLEW.so    

libglew-dev: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libGLEW.so

libglew1.10: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libGLEW.so.1.10

libglew1.10: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libGLEW.so.1.10.0

Installing the required libs, except libGLEW:

Code:
aptitude install libportaudio2:i386 libcg:i386 libsoundtouch0:i386 libcggl:i386

And installed libglew1.7:i386 manually.

Now I have tried to run pcsx2 v.1.0,
- with libGSdx coming from the same package, pcsx2 freezes, and I have no control or no error message
- with libGSdx rev5752, I have this error message when starting the game (only tested with one):

Code:
/tmp/1.0.0/common/src/Utilities/Linux/LnxHostSys.cpp(64) : assertion failed:

    Function:  void SysPageFaultSignalFilter(int, siginfo_t*, void*)

    Thread:    MTGS

    Condition: false

With an updated version of pcsx2 rev5705, I have:

Code:
[wx] libGLEW.so.1.9: Ne peut ouvrir le fichier d'objet partagé: Aucun fichier ou dossier de ce type

... so it can't load the plugin.

Unfortunately, version 1.9 doesn't seem to be in Debian:
http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=libglew

That's all for now. And yeah I know it could run like *****, but I wasn't intending to play the big games, if run at all.

You need to use the SVN version. The so-called stable version is not stable at all, and pcsx2 has changes significantly on the Linux side since then.

Here is the command from the PCSX2 Google Code website. http://code.google.com/p/pcsx2/

svn checkout http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ pcsx2-read-only

Get GSdx from this thread. It doesn't need glew (IIRC, normally I packed glew in the official tarball but you need to use the startup script) => http://forums.pcsx2.net/Thread-Unofficial-linux-build

Edit: sorry I didn't see the error message of GSdx.
So yes it crash but I don't know why, you have the same issue as a guy on this thread http://forums.pcsx2.net/Thread-Unofficial-linux-build

Edit2:Can you edit GSdx.ini and set all option that begin with "override_" to 0? And post it the output of the xterm terminal

For the GSdx crash. Open GSdx configuration and select OGL renderer (by default it used internaly dx). Restart and it migth fix the crash

Okay, there were no "override_*" options yet, but reselecting OpenGL (Hardware) as a renderer with pcsx2-svn-r5705 seem to have helped, now I can start a game Laugh

I haven't tested thourougly yet, but I think some ingame graphics were missing (cinematics were fine, but ingame environment was mainly black). I will test a bit more soon and with other games.
Other problem was sound playback was "slowed down", maybe related to PAL/NTSC ?

The output from the terminal revealed this:

Does this explain the missing textures ?
I might also give a newer version of Mesa a chance if it can help.

yes the crash was the renderer default value. Try latest svn it might fix most of your issue.
