First USDX binary available for Linux!
Today marks the start of a great era, as we make our first Linux package available for download.
Well now that I have your attention and all, Ill cut the marketing talk 
I’m pleased to post a download for a Debian package, please be warned that the Linux version is still undergoing lots of changes & bug fixes, and we wont have an “Stable” release of this for a little while yet ( It will coincide with the release of 1.1 for windows because it shares the same code base )
There are definitely known issues ( some stuff doesn’t display correctly, some audio issues, some things a little off with the package etc.. ) but this is a start, and I wanted to show our loyal fans what we have been working on..
- So if your game….
- run Linux ( tested on Ubuntu 7.10 )
- Want to see what we have been up to
then head on over to http://downloads.sourceforge.net/ultrastardx/UltraStarDeluxe_1.1_i386.deb and take a look.

Congratulation guys! You’ve done a great job with all your releases and I guess the first lunix release will be a apparentness for all linux users!

This is soooo cool. Is it too much to ask for anyone to make a ppa with it?
THanks everyone…

Thanks so much, i’ve been waiting long for this!
You said it’s tested under ubuntu 7.10, but after the installation I try to launch it from terminal and i get
~$ UltraStarDeluxe
UltraStarDeluxe: error while loading shared libraries: libavcodec.so.0d: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
What is wrong? It seems that I can’t find this library in the repos (only libavcodec1d is available)… any suggest? Thank you a lot!!!

Hi guys!! Thanks a lot! This is a great piece of news for a lot of us!!
I was running UltraStarDX perfectly on Wine (except the artifacts in bars), and it’s great to see it running natively!
…but, I have exactly the same problem that Graz has, so I’ll wait for the next release, anyway, it’s quite nice to see the light at the end of the tunnel!!
Thank for the tremendous effort to share such a great program with all of us!

Sorry guys… I’ve read the first comment late, and now… I’ve got it working!!!!
Thanks once again!

When you release this verion on other distribution (Fedora 8, rpm) ?
March 8th, 2008 at 9:44 pm
Hey,
I’ve got the same problem … on Edubuntu 7.10
” error while loading shared libraries: libavcodec.so.0d: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory”
I was reading the link in the first post, but it says I would have to compile libavcodec.so.0d myself … well unfortunately I don’t have a clue how to do that …
So I don’t have another choice then to wait for the next release … and hope this will be for download pretty soon …

That would be great if the solution could be a litle bit more explicite:
Everyone does not know how to compile libavcodec.so.0d

For every one that want an easy solution for ubuntu 7.10 (gusty) go sse this forum:

A 64-bit binary would be nice, but I understand that it’s probably just too much hassle to start making binaries for every distro and architecture under the sun just now.
I’d offer to help but wouldn’t have the faintest idea where to start.

Hi!
Congratulations and thanks for being able to port it to Linux and Debian natively. In some days I’ll try to have a look at it with the goal to create a Debian package of the game and have it in official Debian repositories.
Greetings,

Hey

Its very easy when you have it for the i386… My machine has some issues installing the fp-compiler so I can’t do it at the moment..

Very nice!
But I can’t install it on Debian Etch, because of responsities, which are not available for etch….
