Factorio Forums

Hi, I have problem with factorio. I have a Debian Wheezy and when I try to start factorio (./factorio) it gives me this error: I learned I have 2.13 version and that there are 2.19 versions in testing and unstable repos. I want to ask if there is a way to solve this without risking doom of the whole system.

Thank you guys

Hello, I am running debian testing with radeon-si/mesa drivers and it runs great here. Installed libc6 package is 2.19

I had to add 'max-texture-size=4096' to the [graphics] section to avoid crashing my system without 'low-graphics'-mode enabled, but I am not sure if this is still necessary and that was definite gpu specific.

Whether it is save to just update libc6 for wheezy is another topic. For gaming I can only suggest running the testing distribution. Stable just gets to old at the end of the release cycle for external software. Not sure what happens if you manually download the never libc and place the lib into the factorio directory.
