you want to run superfrog.sh instead. However it still doesn't work cause they didn't package all the .so files that it needs.
Pepe Oct 31, 2013 @ 1:13pm 
When you will open my log from terminal, you will see
"/home/pepe/.local/share/Steam/SteamApps/common/Superfrog/superfrog.sh: line 5: 12879 Aborted "
But when you will open that file with some text editor, you will see that .sh will open binary "Superfrog" in /bin/.

So, i have right in my 1st post. But i can confirm from you, that .so packages, are missing.

You can probably just install the necessary 32bit libs that it needs.

sudo apt-get install libsdl-mixer1.2:i386 libsdl1.2debian:i386

i installed libsdl-mixer and i have the same problem

jazztickets: You said, that .so packages are you missing and you're giving an advice, which couldnt help, because this problem is only for Superfrog.
When i'll have problem with many games, i will install some packages.
But in this case in my 1st is: "App need shared object, but app coudn't find him, because file or foldery isn't exist."\
Btw. I didn't install some libraries, which could make OS unstable or something else, which i didnt need.. I rather use wine =)

I contacted support@team17.com, if i will receive any answer, i will post here =)

Alright everyone needs to calm down and run this command in a fresh new terminal:
cd ~/.local/share/Steam/SteamApps/common/Superfrog/ && ./superfrog.sh

If it complains about not finding a particular .so file, you gotta install the 32bit version of the library with your package manager. Arch users will need to do the ole "yaourt -S lib32-sdl_mixer lib32-sdl"

ldd is your friend!

The game works for me after you do these chores.

Confirmed, LC_ALL=C fixes the launching problem for me too :)

You can add export LC_ALL=C to your superfrog.sh file until Team17 fixes it, that way you don't have to launch it manually through a terminal every time.

"LC_ALL=C LANG=C ./superfrog.sh

Then, i need libraries, what jazztickets say, but i don't want install additional libraries, what i said, because i rather use wine for it..^^
