hi, not sure where to ask for help of my issue but i'm starting here because first time using lazy newb pack.

but... https://imgur.com/a/qieyBny in case don't want to look or the image is gone:  on load-up, DF only renders left side of game window... the right side is cut off as if someone dragged the game halfway off the screen to the right so only the left half is visible.

i was using linux for this, meph graphics lite.

enter your screen resolution in the launcher.

enter your screen resolution in the launcher.

thank you for the solution, kinda embarrassing when i left it at default 80x50 and it misbehaved excessively

I haven't been able to get dwarf therapist to work.

So, i recently learned that ubuntu / debian no longer uses gksudo and instead uses something called policy kit.  I cludged a workaround for dwarf therapist by fiddling with the shell script, but it says i'm missing "libQTQml.so.5" from shared libraries which is a package in QT.
***
exact error message: /home/kevin/Downloads/LNP/LNP/utilities/dwarf_therapist/dwarftherapist: error while loading shared libraries: libQt5Qml.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I ran this with and without dwarf fortress running, same error.

***
also tried installing latest version of QT, didn't work.

libQt5Qml.so.5 is provided by qt5-declarative. Assuming it is not already on your system try:

sudo apt-get install qtdeclarative5-dev

If/once that file is present and it still does not work it is a permissions issue (i.e. the workaround is not right...). 

[ringringlingling]

HA!  SUCCESS!  THANK YOU, MY DWARVES OWE YOU THEIR LIVES!!

Seriously tho, its weird that package doesn't install with qt 5.9..

qtdeclarative5-dev is the development package, for the library alone, use libqt5qml5.

To Run: Simply execute the included startlnp script.

LNP IMPORT TIPS
When first launching a new version of the LNP, you'll be asked if you want to import files from a previous installation. If you select yes, open the previous version's df_linux folder in the file chooser dialog, then click ok. Selecting the LNP folder or the root of the pack will cause the import to fail. The import process will grab your DF saves, SoundSense and/or SoundCense sounds, gamelog, and dfhack history from the previous version.

Utilities included:

• PyLNP 0.13b UPDATED
• DF 0.44.12
• TWBT 6.54 UPDATED
• DFHack 0.44.12-r1
• Armok Vision 0.19.1
• Dwarf Therapist 41.0.3 UPDATED
• Soundsense r2016-1 (you'll need to download the sound files yourself from within the application)
• SoundCenSe GTK 1.4.2  (A c# audio engine for Dwarf Fortress based on Zweistein's SoundSense)  (*Requires Mono*)
• Legends Browser 1.17.1 (*Requires Java 8*)

Graphics packs included:

NOTE REGARDING GRAPHICS PACKS
At the time of upload, not all of the graphics packs have been officially updated for 44.12.  As far as I can tell, nothing *should* prevent them from working properly, but please let me know if you run into any problems with them.  I will release a revision once they have been fully updated, provided Toady hasn't pushed out 44.13 by that time.

Support:  Toady and Threetoe have been gracious enough to provide us all with Dwarf Fortress free of charge.  To show your appreciation, please consider donating to Bay 12 Games.  Without donations, Dwarf Fortress wouldn't be what it is today.  Please click the link below to show them some love.  As a bonus, they'll send you a story reward or crayon drawing reward.  How cool is that?


If you like the work I've put into assembling this pack, please feel free to head over to my Patreon page and buy me a coffee.  Or a beer.  Or a sammich.  I'm really not picky.

Yeah, I don't know my way around Debian repos.  (Are they even different from the Ubuntu repositories?)  Just glad I was able to give a working solution (if not the most elegant).

For me the package is currently qt5-declarative 5.11.2-1 and libQt5Qml.so.5 is just a symlink to libQt5Qml.so.5.11.2.  By the way I don't use Arch.

Check out the updated pack I just posted.  DT is packaged into a single file appImage now, and everything you need should be included without downloading any extra packages.  DT has actually been this way for a while, but for some reason I can't currently remember I extracted it for the last few revisions I did.

Thanks for keeping up the LinuxLNP.  I've stopped using it a long while ago but I think it's great for newcomers, whether to Dwarf Fortress or to Linux.  I've been building therapist from source for some time.

(Apologies if I'm cluttering the thread with banter...)

No need to apologize!  I stepped away from it myself for a little bit, been tied up with other things in life and am just now getting back into it again.

They are not the same repositories but they have a lot in common, and the naming policy is the same. There is the same website for Debian packages (you see, qtdeclarative5-dev has only a symlink and its depends on libqt5qml5 that has both symlinks and the actual .so). It is useful for looking for packages when you are not using the targeted distro (otherwise you can use the package manager for searching).

I extracted it for the last few revisions

Extracting the AppImage is okay, but you need to run the included AppRun instead of dwarftherapist directly, it well set the environment to use the included library. Running AppImages requires FUSE, on systems without FUSE, you actually have to extract the AppImage first. I do that in my deploy script. But most desktop should have FUSE, so don't worry about that.

So, i recently learned that ubuntu / debian no longer uses gksudo and instead uses something called policy kit.

I missed the part about sudo. Yes the modern equivalent of gksudo is pkexec. But it is possible to run DT without requiring root access at any time.

If I have your attention, Enay, would you consider using the second solution from this message, instead of the current sudo script? It is a very simple library that only depends on the libc, you would need to edit the df and dfhack scripts to preload it. It would let anyone debug DF even with ptrace_scope set to 1. I think it is better for the security than adding a capability to DT and it is easier to use (no root password asked, no big script that can go wrong).

does the 44.12.02 contain a twbt/dfhack with a mousequery that actually works on a 5:4 screen resolution?
