[Linux] Steam version of game gives error on startup: failed to map segment


  • Hi, good day!

    Just got this game on steam, but unfortunately it won't run... I am getting the following message on startup:

    module.js:476
      return process.dlopen(module, path._makeLong(filename));
                     ^
    Error: /tmp/.io.nwjs.exnxr4/lib/linux64/greenworks-linux64.node: failed to map segment from shared object
        at Error (native)
        at Object.Module._extensions..node (module.js:476:18)
        at Module.load (module.js:375:32)
        at Function.Module._load (module.js:332:12)
        at Module.require (module.js:385:17)
        at require (internal/module.js:20:19)
        at Object.<anonymous> (/tmp/.io.nwjs.exnxr4/greenworks.js:22:18)

        at Object.Module._extensions..js (module.js:446:10)
        at Module.load (module.js:375:32)

    The loading screen shows up but then it just hangs there and I can't play the game. I realise that I run Gentoo instead of the Steam approved version of Ubuntu, but who knows.. maybe this error looks familiar to anyone?


  • Never mind, figured it out. I had /tmp mounted with noexec, mounting it with exec makes it run normally.
