This is copied from the terminal. I bought the game with the CD about a week ago. I pmed BW for the D/L for linux but either he has been gone or it never got sent. So I tried doing the demo and I get that error. Any help? I know acoustibop tried helping me before. But I was of no use then. I am running 8.04 Ubuntu. 32bit OS. Let me know if you need anything else. I have to go to work now, I won't be back for about 7 hours.

Try installing libstdc++5, confused1. This is an older version of the library, so may not be installed by default. Either door just install it in Synaptic.

Thank you! It worked, but now Eschalon run very slowly, to hazard a guess at how many fps i was getting I'd wager no more than maybe 5 fps. It was really slow, with 16-bit color, and non full screen. Even the loader was slow! I know my computer can handle it. I have had it playing Over lord. So I'm thinking the video card drivers weren't loaded maybe?
Edit: sovled it myself, driver hadn't been enabled. Thanks acoustibop! Of course, now the resolution isn't 1280x1024 anymore and I can't change it back, so yay!
