Purebasic on Xandros !

[thyphoon]

The Xandros people probably forgot to set the DISPLAY environment variable.

Try this: "set DISPLAY=localhost:0.0" and run purebasic again. (Maybe it's setenv instead of set.)

Dear Trond, thanks again!
i'm terrible sorry for bothering you but after set, i took a new message:
(purebasic:27253): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
instead of
(purebasic:17021): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:

Do you have one more idea?

curious i hav'nt this error with my Xandros /Eee PC...
i have no idea for the moment... look on the forum theire is a tutorial to install purebasic on unbuntu. Maybe a solution on it !
(excuse me for my bad english)

Finally i did it
I followed the Trond's instructions:
Try this: "set DISPLAY=localhost:0.0" and run purebasic again. (Maybe it's setenv instead of set.)

But, i also add the following commands (as an experiment):
set DISPLAY=localhost:0,0
set DISPLAY=0,0
set DISPLAY=0

And, i don't know why, the Purebasic worked perfect!
Thank you all guys!
I will "torture" you again in my next problem
Best Regards

my steps are:

1. Add to /etc/apt/sources.list:

deb http://xnv4.xandros.com/4.0/pkg/ xandros4.0-xn main contrib non-free
deb http://xnv4.xandros.com/xs2.0/upkg-srv2 etch main contrib non-free
deb http://www.geekconnection.org/ xandros4 main
deb http://download.tuxfamily.org/eeepcrepos p701 main etch
deb http://dccamirror.xandros.com/dccri/ dccri-3.0 main

2. Swap to full KDE desktop mode (optional):

sudo bash
apt-get update
apt-get install ksmserver kicker
apt-get install advanced-desktop-eeepc

3. Install packages for PB:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install gcc
sudo apt-get install libsdl1.2-dev
sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev

4. extract the downloaded "purebasic_linux_4_10_(vngf2f).tgz"

5. add desktop icon (logo.png can you find in purebasic folder)

@Lebostein
Excellent post.
I will use these instructions to set up the PureBasic again into my Asus.
For now i have installed Windows Xp but after a few days i will install the Xandros again.

Some of the necessary libraries are missing.
I faced with the same problem when i installed the PureBasic for the first time.
I reinstalled the PureBasic, following all the instructions and the problem was
solved.
Check out the PureBasic's installation instructions which they are included in the (.tar.gz) file.
Please mention that the Trond's instructions (look at the previous posts) were very helpful.
