Sorry to bug you guys, but I need help(not psychiatric)
I am using SUSE, I did'nt have a compatible graphics card but now I do! However when I try to run the game it borks with a message about the backend. If you need the exact details then let me know.
I used the autopackage thingy but I swear that GNUstep might not be sitting in the right place(?) or is incomplete/uncompiled? I dunno, I am still trying to learn how to work with Linux so please bear with me. If there is anything that needs to be done through, say, konsole then please spell it out in detail otherwise I will be totally lost.
Any help is appreciated.

cactuar:
It depends where the autopackage installed Oolite. My platform doesn't have autopackage so I can't help with that. However if you're feeling brave and you can locate the oolite-deps folder then the link you need is....
ln -s <where ever you find it>/oolite-deps/GNUstep /usr/GNUstep
If that makes no sense then I can try and 'fake' the autopackage and give you the coreect link.
Good luck,

This is extremely bizarre. An undefined symbol means that either the library was missing altogether (in which case it should have failed earlier with 'unable to load foo.so.1' or a similar message) or that you have the right library, but it is missing expected functions.
How old is the distro you are using?
You're not using an amd64 machine by any chance?
Can you try this:
Download http://www.alioth.net/tmp/libxml2.so.2
http://www.alioth.net/tmp/libxslt.so.1
Put them in /usr/lib/Oolite/oolite-deps/lib
Then try running the game again.
(If it still fails also download http://www.alioth.net/tmp/libart_lgpl_2.so.2 and put that in /usr/lib/Oolite/oolite-deps/lib)
and let us know what happens.

AAHHH! AAAAAHHHHHH! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!
(Clears throat) WooHoo! It works! It works! I can play!
It runs well, although I can see the stars through planets at a distance away and stars(close-up) are just halos. But I don't really care about that at the moment - hell I have already killed my first thargoid!
