Geekbench 2 Linux - Missing libpthread Library

Hi there,

I'm trying out Geekbench on a number of Linux-based network attached storage devices, as a consistent benchmarking tool would be really useful for my website.

I can install and run Geekbench 2 Linux no problem on QNAP devices. Next up is an ASUSTOR NAS device, which I believe runs on BusyBox. When attempting to run, I get the following error:

error while loading shared libraries: libpthread.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

A quick hunt in /usr/lib shows that libpthread is missing. Bah. I'm most definitely *not* a Linux expert, so was hoping someone would be able to provide guidance to get Geekbench 2 up and running given this issue.

Many thanks!
Terry

    Oof. I don't think it will be possible to get Geekbench 2 working if libpthread is missing, since Geekbench uses that library extensively. Sorry!

    Best,
    John

    Hi John

    Thanks for the response. I've subsequently found that libpthread isn't
    missing, it's located in

    /lib64/libpthread.so.0

    Any thoughts on getting it going?

    Terry
