    Hi and welcome to devnet,

    Which version of libX11-xcb do you have on your desktop ?

    Did you installed the related dev packages ?

      Thanks for the reply. I am not sure how to tell the libX11-xcb version. Please give a hint.
      I only used the linux online installer. I did install some things as they were suggested in the various posts but I cannot say that I installed any dev packages. What should I be looking for?

        You distribution package manager should tell you that.

        Not knowing which distribution you are using I can't help more.

          Ok I found the version info. It seems to be 2:1.3.2-1ubuntu3. The dev package is also installed of the same version.

            You need to install libx11-xcb-dev

              That was rather silly. I did not notice the packages were not installed. I done that and get this now.

              @Failed to load core: /opt/Qt/Tools/QtCreator/lib/qtcreator/plugins/QtProject/libCore.so: Cannot load library /opt/Qt/Tools/QtCreator/lib/qtcreator/plugins/QtProject/libCore.so: (/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.15' not found (required by /opt/Qt/Tools/QtCreator/lib/qtcreator/plugins/QtProject/../.././libQt5CLucene.so.5))
              @
              "current installed packages":http://picpaste.com/Screenshot-15-WsJi8aMl.png

              And then I did this and see that it is missing.

              How do I get the right version?

                Ok it took some scratching but I think I have it sorted. The synaptic package manager did not pick up on the fact that the gcc version was not the latest. So I had to do this:

                sudo apt-get install gcc-4.7-base
                sudo apt-get install libstdc++6-4.7-dev

                and then the QTcreator loaded without a problem. Now to see if I can make it work :)

                Thanks a lot for the help, it is appreciated.

                  You're welcome !

                  If Qt Creator can load then you are ready to do some work :)

                  Happy coding !

                    I spoke too quick, after the upgrade, I lost most of my desktop applications. I cannot even open a terminal or chrome. What applications are open is all that I have to work with. I am busy making copies of my crucial stuff and then I will have to rebuild the machine.
                    Linux is dangerous.

                      What distribution are you on ?

                      Depending on the age of it and the possibility to upgrade, you should consider building Qt yourself.

                        I have a feeling that I did something stupid along the way and that I might have had something else missing or not installed correctly.
                        I rebuild the machine on Ubuntu 10.04 (used for Linuxcnc development) and did it this way. All is working now.

                        @1: Download the linux 32-bit package from the QT-project website (http://qt-project.org/downloads).
                        NOTE: Do not use the online installer (nothing to fallback on)
                        2: With synaptic package manager install libx11-dev
                        3: then do this
                        sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test
                        sudo apt-get update
                        sudo apt-get upgrade
                        sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
                        4: Make the downloaded QT file executable
                        5: run qt-opensource-linux-x86-5.2.1.run@

                          My guess: dist-upgrade :)

                          Out of curiosity, can you check the Ubuntu version you have now ?

                            dist-upgrade only effected the four library files. This is the system as is now. Same as before I think.

                            I think what happened is when I did the gcc upgrade I saw many removes. I do not know how I did it though and it was to late to stop. I guess I did not read the prompts well enough.

                              Package management is like a contract always read all the content ;)

                              What matters is that you have your documents and that you are up and running with Qt :)

                              Happy coding !
