Mutual GNU / Linux

You can try the ppa version :

It's essential that you do select the "Driver Manager" in the System Setting and, at the minimum you update your graphics drives to the recommended version and ensure that you are actually runing that version. The native drivers in Ubuntu are not sufficient.

Topic should be unstickied, as there are now official 64 bits client, no need to run a 32 bits client on a 64 bits architecture anymore.

I recently re-installed 16.04 ubuntu LTS on my Asus desktop and now I can't seem to get Ryzom to launch successfully. It launches and then disappears. Any suggestions would be great.

run from terminal to see what the problem might be

yes I believe it is functioning properly I can watch videos and seem to be working fine. I have tried both Auto and Open GL config and both give the same results. if you have a suggestion let me know.

I did check the Asus website for drivers specific for linux but I couldn't find any. I am running an Asus desktop M32 BC

going to re-install stay tuned :)

If everything else fails, try a single folder installation:

https://app.ryzom.com/app_forum/index.php?page=post/view/174995

I got that running on a variety of boxes when installed on usb disk or stick without any troubles. Sometimes, some library may be reported missing, but apt-cache search or so will help.
