I cannot for the life of me seem to run Dwarf Fortress, either via df or libx/Dwarf_Fortress. By typing /.df or /.libs/Dwarf_Fortress (which Bash even autocompletes with tab). I get the error that Dwarf_Fortress does not exist .. wat? I can strings and cat the file, as well as touch it, and Bash will complete its name with tab, so it's definately there, but I cannot run it. Wat do? I have opengl, my video drivers, and SDL.

Ah yes, this is Linux by the way.

Issue resolved, disregard thread. It was missing 32-bit libs.

(A pointless reply, as you've already solved the problem.)

This still gets me occasionally, even though I know what the issue is.  I hate it, it's such an inappropriate error message.  To elaborate, in case anyone else finds this thread when searching...

Symptoms: An executable that you know is there and readable will give you the error "<command>: No such file or directory" when you try to run it.  This only happens on a 64-bit Linux install.

Solution: Install the appropriate 32-bit libraries.  With Ubuntu, this almost always means installing ia32-libs.

I agree, something has to be done about it. I would have immediately installed 32-bit libs if it said e.x: "32-bit support not present."
