I've used synaptic installer to install libstdc++6, libstdc++5 and freeglut3, but it still doesn't work. I don't know how to install via the terminal. Do I put slash signs between the words in this string:
sudo apt-get install ia32-libs libstdc++6 libstdc++5 freeglut3 |

First:
----------------------------------------sudo apt-get update Then: sudo apt-get install gcc-4.7-multilib libstdc++6 libstdc++5 freeglut3 lib32z1 lib32ncurses5 lib32bz2-1.0 Followed by: sudo service boinc-client restart  |

IIRC, only gcc-4.7-multilib is needed [it pulls in more automatically]. Found instructions for Test4Theory [LHC] which also mention gcc-4.7-multilib, and a different mix of libs: http://lhcathome2.cern.ch/vLHCathome/forum_thread.php?id=1134&postid=14541 and the poster captainjack we know.
----------------------------------------Guess you could pick this via Synaptic [if installed via apt-get ;] or the Ubuntu Software Centre. edit: copy-typo [Edit 1 times, last edit by Former Member at Sep 3, 2015 10:08:25 AM] |

It worked! Thank you!
And I thought it was necessary to put slash signs between the words ... |

Great! I've updated the BOINC wiki to provide the 2 alternate working library sets. Would be great if someone could test and confirm if it's just enough to install only gcc-4.7-multilib i.e.
----------------------------------------sudo apt-get install gcc-4.7-multilib Uninstalling any over and above and restarting the client would be enough. Think there's an item on this in the Start Here Forum Index and will certainly insert one whence things are chiseled in stone. Edit: Checked, there's an item, section 4-AE, which refers to the very BOINC wiki.  Edit: embarrassing copy-typo [Edit 1 times, last edit by Former Member at Sep 3, 2015 10:07:32 AM] |

I did first:
sudo apt-get update Then: sudo apt-get install gcc_4.7-multilib But I got the answer: E: Unable to locate package gcc_4.7-multilib E: Couldn't find any package by regex 'gcc_4.7-multilib' So I changed it to: sudo apt-get install gcc-4.7-multilib Followed by a restart of Ubuntu inside the VM, and it worked. |

OK, modding the Wiki to just list 'required' and optional in italic [if things still fail]
