I have recently started Linux Mint. Unfortunately my Minecraft keeps crashing. How do I fix this?

As of today I have the latest version of Linux Mint on my computer. Now I wanted to play Minecraft again like in the past years, but it crashes with versions like 1.10, 1.12. BUT the latest version of Minecraft works.

On request, I can also send the log.

Can you then upload the log somewhere?

Just play 1.15.2 what do you want in 1.10

Since I'm not very familiar with Linux, I have to search for xD first

Haha thanks for your solution

You can also simply search for the .minecraft folder

We already need the error message. Without you, nobody can help you here. The crystal balls are only occupied until 9 p.m.

Some servers only support the version and the version and if you just work around the problem you won't solve it

Haha, a moment

As I said, I just don't find the logs

Try it in ~ / .minecraft

There's a directory called crash reports.

Here you go

Here you go

Delete the options.txt

I did nothing

How did you find the log?

Yes I did it now, but trz brings nothing. I can run the log at the start of the game.

Still there?

It is a linker error. Minecraft apparently complains that you haven't installed any dependency. How did you install Minecraft exactly? Do the Aptitude repositories always have the latest version of the launcher? I haven't used an Ubuntu derivative in a long time.

And which version of Java do you use? Older versions of Minecraft can't handle a Java newer than Java 8. Unfortunately, I don't know which they are.

Jre1.8.0_241-i586 I use this Java version

Minecraft I have about Mojang, because I still have a Mojang acc. Downloaded for the linux version.

With that you answered exactly one of my questions. You have to help me a little more if I'm to help you.

First I downloaded tar.gz, but since I was too stupid to install it, I installed the installer from the application manager.

Do you have a 32-bit or a 64-bit Linux system? And is your Minecraft 32-bit or 64-bit? Because the Java you have installed is for 32-bit systems.

I have 64 bit system

I install the 64 bit java version

Do you recognize by the suffix "i586", generally "x86", where you can use a number between 3 and 6 for x, or sometimes nothing at all. 64-bit versions usually have the suffix "x64", "amd64" or "x86_64".

Okey learned something again. Unfortunately, that didn't work either

The error message appears to be a problem with the wrong version of Java, as a quick Google search has shown. Type "java --version" on the command line. Which version is mentioned there?

Openjdk 11.0.6 2020-01-14

OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 11.0.6 + 10-post-Ubuntu-1ubuntu118.04.1)

OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 11.0.6 + 10-post-Ubuntu-1ubuntu118.04.1, mixed mode, sharing)

We have the problem there. You are using the wrong Java. For older versions of Minecraft you need Java 8, newer versions do not always work and especially Java 11 (which you use here) often leads to problems in connection with Minecraft and other Java software that was not written for Java 11. Uninstall all Java versions, only install Java 8.

All right, I'll try it out and get in touch again

How do I completely delete java from pc?

Maybe you should first find out about Aptitude / APT, this is your package manager. Linux distributions bring this thing with them so that you can easily install and uninstall software so that you don't have to constantly download any strange installers from websites. If you installed Java in the usual way via the package manager, you can also uninstall Java again. Read the Ubuntu Wiki, there you will find everything you need to know about the package manager of your distro.

I think that's too high again. I sat down with a fresh head and coffee again tomorrow. I feel like someone who can't swim towards you.

Oh, I only used Ubuntu derivatives for a short time. I now use Arch Linux.

Pretty much every Linux distribution comes with a package manager. Under Ubuntu and its derivatives (this also includes Linux Mint) is the APT, under Arch Linux is the Pacman… These package managers access a database of packages that have already been built and preconfigured, so they have been perfectly adapted to the respective distribution. These packages only have to be downloaded and extracted in the right place.

The package manager will do that for you too. It is also there to resolve dependencies. If you install Minecraft via it, the correct Java version will be installed, for example, because Minecraft will not run without Java.

Most of these package managers are addressed via the command line. For APT, the command is simply "apt". The command is then given an operation to be carried out via command line arguments (installation of a package, removal of a package, removal of unused dependencies, searching the package database…) and the names of the packages for which this operation is to be carried out. The rest happens automatically.

In newer versions, APT also comes with a graphical user interface called Aptitude. It also allows you to do all of these things. How exactly to use it, I'm not sure. I just google. Therefore I refer to the Ubuntu wiki on the net, because there you can find all the information you need about these things.
