Uplink full download v1.31 purchased several months ago and played extensively on win xp, installed on Debian, patched to v1.55, got "GCC_4.2.0 not found" first time, downloaded GCC 4.2.0 tarball, ./configure && make && make install w/o problems, did the whole Uplink install'n'patching again, same thing - that was my night. Let's see, what the day brings. Has anyone an idea?
Thank you.

Try deleting /usr/local/games/uplink/lib/libgcc_s.so.1
Only necessary .so files should be :
lib/libfreetype.so.6
lib/libftgl.so.0
lib/libSDL-1.2.so.0
lib/libSDL_mixer-1.2.so.0

Edit:
okay, i started it from Debian|Games menu and it worked. Now it wanted to have a verification code from a black card in the cd tray, which i don't have since i only ordered the download version.
My Paypal payment information etc. still available, if needed for verification needs.

I just purchased from the store a few hours ago. I had played it on a friends computer, who had the FBI mod installed, and decided to buy it.
The download version works great, but when I try to run the FBI mod on it, it keeps asking for the code.
When I read that the code card was included in the patch I decided to download and install the patch. It did not seem to create a codecard.txt file anywhere. I would really like to be able to play the FBI mod, but can't.
How can I get this file? Will I have to wait till the online store download version is updated? Or can I get it some other way. I am a legitimate customer, and my uplink version is working fine, just want to be able to play the FBI mod.

Thanks, I decided it wasn't necessary, I'll just wait till the box shows up, or it is updated. Wonderful game btw, I really enjoy it. Now if I can just figure out how to play it and get my necessary sleep at the same time...

No, it's not. In fact, some games have different patches for US and UK that may not match.

Depends on how it was coded and who did the translation.
