TeamSpeak 2 and Fedora 9

jlc · #1 14th May 2008, 05:50 PM

I had some difficulties getting TeamSpeak to work on F9 and then I figured out what needed to be done.

This has only been tested on an x86 box at work, all my machines at home are x86_64 so I'll test it on my laptop tonight. It should work, however I might have to add some steps and will do that later.

Install the dependencies:

Code:

su -c "yum install libX11.{i?86,x86_64} glibc.{i?86,x86_64} libxcb.{i?86,x86_64} libXau.{i?86,x86_64} libXdmcp.{i?86,x86_64}"

Download the client, go to:

http://www.goteamspeak.com/?page=downloads

or directly

Code:

wget -c ftp://ftp.freenet.de/pub/4players/teamspeak.org/releases/ts2_client_rc2_2032.tar.bz2

Extract the bz2

Code:

tar xvjpf ts2_client_rc2_2032.tar.bz2

Change into the directory

Code:

cd ts2_client_rc2_2032

Launch the setup, if you just want it for your user, remove the "su -c", that will install it to your home directory.

Code:

su -c "sh ./setup.sh"

Default is to install it in /opt/TeamSpeak2RC2

Change to root

Code:

su -

Change to lib directory (my guess is this is were x86_64 users should also drop them)

Code:

cd /usr/lib

Link the 3 lib files

Code:

ln -s /opt/TeamSpeak2RC2/lib* .

Exit root

Code:

exit

Launch TeamSpeak:

Code:

/opt/TeamSpeak2RC2/TeamSpeak.bin

edit: Adding the error message to give searches something to find.

Installer error:

Code:

./setup.data/installer/installer: symbol lookup error: ./setup.data/installer/installer: undefined symbol: initPAnsiStrings

Launch error:

Code:

/opt/TeamSpeak2RC2/TeamSpeak.bin
/opt/TeamSpeak2RC2/TeamSpeak.bin: symbol lookup error: /opt/TeamSpeak2RC2/TeamSpeak.bin: undefined symbol: initPAnsiStrings

Adding an "Application Launcher" to Gnome:

Right click on your panel.
Choose "Custom Application Launcher"
Add

Name: TeamSpeak 2
Command: /opt/TeamSpeak2RC2/TeamSpeak.bin

Click on the Icon (looks like a spring with a launch pad"

In the browse bar, type in /opt/TeamSpeak2RC2 and the icon should appear. Hit OK

I get this error on my fresh install of x86-64 Fedora9

following your instructions step by step i get this error

[JrCool@jrcool-pc ts2_client_rc2_2032]$ su -c "sh ./setup.sh"
Passwort:
./setup.data/installer/installer: symbol lookup error: ./setup.data/installer/installer: undefined symbol: initPAnsiStrings

I'm googling for any solutions ...

EDIT:
found this one http://forum.teamspeak.com/archive/i...hp/t-9686.html

a problem with gtk .... it's an older thread, but maybe the same solution

Did you install the prereqs? Maybe you need some other development tools that I just always install.

Code:

yum install "Development Tools"

Will try this *reboot*

Edit:
Ok, after my reboot (win -> Fedora) my network was not able to connect ...
To exclude any configuration problems, I reinstalled fedora9 with some of the development tools and repeated your step-by-step manual.
Same problem.
trying to "install" your advice, my (german) fedora says:

[root@jrcool-pc jrcool]# yum install "Development Tools"
Geladene Plugins: refresh-packagekit # Loaded Plugins: ...
Einrichten des Installationsprozess # loading install. process
Analysiere Installationsargumente des Pakets # analyse installation arguments
Kein Paket Development Tools verfügbar. # No paket Developent Tools availible
Nichts zu tun # nothing to do

sorry for my bad translation

(for better understanding)

"yum search development tools" got me a really long list of tools i don't know good enough to install the right one

I have Teamspeak installed but I haven't been able to get it to work with UT2004. I am not sure if I want to run arts as some have had issues with it in the past and I also run mythtv and that app does not like arts.

Does anyone have a working setup to get Teamspeak working with UT2k4 and other games like it?

Please don't direct me to this link http://www.linux-gamers.net/modules/...ge=HOWTO+Sound

I have read it, not necessarily understood all of it but I have read it.
