Factorio does not run. (Linux Mint 17.1 32bit KDE)

Post by grandworker »

Hello! I have downloaded demo, extracted, and launched with a mouse. But the game does not start.
Then I have tried to launch factorio with a console:

Code: Select all

cd /media/newfag/WLT/MyFiles/Temporary/factorio/bin/i386/

> factorio
factorio: command not found

>./factorio
bash: ./factorio: Permission denied

> sudo ./factorio
sudo: ./factorio: command not found

> ls -l factorio
-rw-------

sudo chmod 777 factorio

> ls -l factorio
-rw-------
How can I launch it?

Did you maybe put the game on a FAT fs mounted with a umask preventing the executable bit from being set? Check output of mount, remount with umask=0 or so, or put the game on a proper fs.

I have understood. Factorio has been extracted on ntfs partition.
When I have extracted it in ext4 partition, then the game has started.
Thank you very much!
