    This is what the original poster is talking about.

    Ubuntu comes with a utility to burn ISO images to USB memory sticks. It is called Startup Disk Creator. Or you can download and install mkusb which I have found very useful.

    https://help.ubuntu.com/community/mkusb

    It might be helpful if we knew what game you want to run. The instructions of the game's developer might be informative.

    Never knew that there is a Linux version of Power Iso. I've been using gcdemu for a long time for the purpose of mounting CD/DVD images and I'm quite happy with it. There's also Acetone Iso. gcdemu can be found at https://cdemu.sourceforge.io/ and they have a PPA for Ubuntu. Acetone Iso is in the repositories.

    The message in the image you posted indicates that a plugin could not be found and suggests reinstalling the application which I take to mean the poweriso application. Have you tried that?

    Re: Install Power ISO in Ubuntu

    It's actually not the xcb plugin itself, it's the whole thing which is incompatible. If you run it with
    Code:
    QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS=1 ./poweriso.sh
    you get (a lot) more detailed information. The program tries to bring all the libraries it needs along, but some are missing and are used from the system. Those aren't compatible with the ones the program brings along (specifically libqxcb needs libfontconfig, libfreetype, libbrotlidec, and libbrotlicommon which aren't included and those on your system need a newer version of libc than the one which is included; and of course the included libraries and the program need that old version of libc). It's a classical case of dependency hell. This program was compiled on February 10th in 2019 and the world has moved on since then.

    Seems like you need to use a different utility, or a different OS.

    Windows 11, Windows 10, Windows 8 / 8.1, Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows 2008, Windows 2003, Windows XP, Windows 2000, Windows Me, Windows 98
