so I'm using Kubuntu 64 bit. (well that's ubuntu forum, but this is ubuntu derivative so I thought you might help me) and I wanted to install League of Legends through playonlinux (4.2.4). On 32 bit systems (Kubuntu and Ubuntu) process went flawlessly, but here playonlinux gives me error:

POL error

I am using radeon r7 (R7 265 2GB OC) drivers installed through drivers section

radeon drivers installed

fglrx - 13.35.5 [Mar. 12 2014]

So far I have tried these solutions given in forums:

sudo apt-get install ia32-libs from here

and tried this post here, but didn't install give libraries at all.

Since this is my first time playing with Linux 64 bit. I have no idea what am I doing! If someone could help I would appreciate that!


HEY!! I have solved this by entering

dpkg --add-architecture i386

then removed old ATI drivers:

sudo apt-get purge fglrx*

remove xorg.conf:

sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf

reinstall xorg:

sudo apt-get install --reinstall xserver-xorg-core libgl1-mesa-glx:i386 libgl1-mesa-dri:i386 libgl1-mesa-glx:amd64 libgl1-mesa-dri:amd64

reconfigure xorg:

sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

REBOOT

download latest amd drivers from website

and install using this simple youtube guide

that's it!! PlayOnLinux error is gone!! works perfectly fine! this worked on AMD Radeon R7 265 OC

  • i think the libgl is missing so we can only try & find the missing package, install the libgl & try again apt-get install fglrx

  • how to install libgl? I can't do that directly through terminal and entering that in synaptic gives me tons of packages, some of those are installed though should I give a list of installed packages?
