Can't get VbB working under Ubuntu 12.04

Recommended Posts

Hi.

 

As some of you probably remember, I recently re-did my laptop, and installed Ubuntu 12.04 on it.

This time around, I wanted to try installing VisualbB so that it would run directly under Linux, rather

than using a virtual Windows machine like I had been doing all along. I looked at the old topic from early 2011

that batari started about getting it to work under Linux. I installed the complete package of mono, and

the other mono-vbnc package. So far, I have gotten it to the point where the ImgtoCode utility works perfectly,

but VisualbB will not. It says it needs libgluezilla in order to work, but I can't find it in the Synaptics Package Manager.

 

Has anyone else had any luck getting this to work? Or is it just a matter of time, because I understand 12.04 just

came out, so not a whole lot of threads probably exist about it yet.

 

Thanks. ^^

Good luck with that. Some of the libraries are native and not .NET. I am not sure if those will ever work under Linux, but if you do let me know as I'd love to document what you did.

Ubuntu < Fedora

Perhaps. I've never tried Fedora before, so I'm not going to agree or disagree. But I've got everything set up the way I like it, and I like the new improvements to the Unity bar, so I was hoping not to switch operating systems..

I'd go the WINE route. It's not emulating a Windows box. WINE just runs VisualbB and takes care of all those pesky API calls. Of course, you WILL have to install the .NUT framework under WINE before VisualbB.
