I've been using Desura for a while and somehow i can't use it no more. It just don't load anymore. I use it on a Ubuntu 11.10 32bit version. I tried to use the Desura force upgrade and nothing happened. |

I think the easiest thing to do is just delete everything inside your Desura folder except for "common". After that, download the desura binary and run it inside your existing Desura folder. If you keep the common folder like this, you won't have to re-download all of your game data. You might have to verify them though. |

If you run Desura from the terminal, can you post the output here? |

On my system, libcrypto.so.0.9.8 is just a link to the system version. It looks like you don't have openssl installed, which is usually installed by default on most Linux distributions. I would load up Ubuntu Software Center, and make sure "SSL shared libraries" is installed. The package name should be libssl1.0.0 on Ubunto 11.10. Afternatively, open up a termal and do: sudo apt-get install libssl1.0.0 |
