I have a game (SimCity 3000) that I brushed off the dust and wanted to
try out in Gentoo. It doesn't like it. I applied the loki updates (which
was interesting in and of itself.. loki was using some depreciated
options of tail).
According to google, the game is supposed to run with:
LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.4 sc3u
However, I get an error about unable to load libdl.so.2. However, I get
the same error when I do:
LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.4 ldd ./games/bin/sc3u
ldd should be able to run, however it won't. Same thing with any
command. I've tried various values, such as 2.2.5, 2.4.1, 2.4.10, 2.5.1,
and 2.6.*. If I choose 2.6.*, then everything works like it should.
I made sure I had all the "compat" libraries installed that seemed
appropriate. esearch compat, showed me what I could install.
After more googling, I've learned that some people are getting
LD_ASSUME_KERNEL to work, however I believe they are running 2.4
kernels. I also found this mail archive:
http://www.mail-archive.com/gentoo-dev@gentoo.org/msg00492.html
That post was a year ago. Is there any work being done on this? Is it
finished? in testing?
Is this a 2.6 thing or an NPTL thing?
I don't really like using my FC box anymore, but it seems I'll have to
keep it around in order to handle situations such as this.
Suggestions or answers?
