XMLTV GUI not starting

Post by pofadda » Fri Mar 21, 2008 6:33 pm

I am attempting to install XMLTV GUI on a Suse 10.3 box. I have the KylixRT executable in the same folder. all files seem to be 'executable'.

I ran gen_scripts.sh with no output at the command line.

When running XmltvGUI I get the error message:
./XmltvGUI: error while loading shared libraries: liblualib.so.5.0:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
When i run Kylix alone I get the message:
# ./KylixRT
Segmentation fault
Is this easy to sort out or is it another 'Life's too short for Linux' problem? There seem to be a lot of them still about!

you cannot run xmltv gui directly as it requires its path to be temporarily added to the path (this avoids you having to install the libraries). when you run gen_scripts.sh it should produce a script called xmltv.sh. if you run this xmltv should start. see http://www.birtles.org.uk/xmltv/wiki/in ... /V3Running
