gui does not launch after installation by hand

 

Hi,

I have installed marionnet 0.90.6 following the step by step Wiki instructions on a Debian based ZevenOS 32-bit Linux with the LXDE desktop environment. Kernel version is 3.3.4. The installer script marionnet_from_scratch.sh kept producing an error during compilation about a floating point value not being a constant and aborting. Not sure if this is a known bug in ocaml sources or if it is coming from a missing library or missing headers. Installation by hand generated marionnet.byte and marionnet.native in /usr/local/bin. However, there is no entry for simply "marionnet", which I built using the same sources on a Ubuntu based system. I can launch on Ubuntu with CLI 'marionnet', but on Debian, I have to use marionnet.native or marionnet.byte. When I type the command, I am greeted by "Welcome to marionnet..." the shell output message, but the GUI does not launch. Running ps -A | grep marionnet shows the daemon and marionnet.byte are both running and port
 6000 is open to X11. I have downloaded and install the two image files. Probably something is missing from the build, but as far as I can tell the latest libraries were available during the build and the build process was successful. How can we audit the build to find out what is missing? Or is it something misconfigured in the LXDE environment? The typical Debian install is very likely targeting the Gnome environment.

Any suggestion would be welcome.

With kind regards,

kadee
