Unity’s intergration crashes on startup if the Fmod .dlls are included in the project. Stack frames are as follows: ```auto Obtained 22 stack frames. #0 0x007ff7a57eb3c0 in funlockfile #1 0x007ff7ad6f7a80 in _dl_rtld_di_serinfo #2 0x007ff7ad6fff5c in _dl_find_dso_for_object #3 0x007ff7a5747728 in _dl_catch_exception #4 0x007ff7ad6ff5fa in _dl_find_dso_for_object #5 0x007ff7a6edb34c in (Unknown) #6 0x007ff7a5747728 in _dl_catch_exception #7 0x007ff7a57477f3 in _dl_catch_error #8 0x007ff7a6edbb59 in dlerror #9 0x007ff7a6edb3da in dlopen #10 0x0056525567a98a in LoadPluginExecutable(char const*, bool) #11 0x0056525567c252 in FindAndLoadUnityPlugin(char const*, void**, bool) #12 0x007ff63c2171de in mono_lookup_pinvoke_call #13 0x007ff63c22a59b in mono_marshal_string_to_utf16 #14 0x007ff63c0eb4c2 in mono_set_break_policy #15 0x007ff63c0d0254 in _init #16 0x007ff63c0d1ccc in _init #17 0x007ff63c0d59c2 in mono_print_method_from_ip #18 0x007ff63c155542 in mono_print_thread_dump_from_ctx #19 0x007ff63c155871 in mono_print_thread_dump_from_ctx #20 0x00000040573393 in (Unknown) #21 0x00000041b62728 in FMODUnity.EditorUtils:Update () ``` ---

Hi, Thanks for letting us know about this. Unfortunately I have been unable to reproduce the issue here. Can you share any more information to help us resolve it? - What Linux distribution are you using? - What version of FMOD are you using? - Do you have libfmodstudio.so and libfmodstudioL.so in the Assets/Plugins/FMOD/lib/linux/x86\_64/ folder? Thanks, Ben ---

Regolith Linux. I believe it is 2.01.00. Yes. ---

Thanks for the additional information. I have just tested with FMOD 2.01 on Regolith Linux, and unfortunately I am still unable to reproduce the issue. Do you have any other plugins installed? Does this issue occur in a new project with nothing but FMOD for Unity installed? Thanks, Ben ---

Yes an empty Unity project crashes on my system, no packages no assets, but the imported FMOD causes a crash on import, and then cannot open the project. If you could provide your `apt list --installed` that could aid in finding a package I could possibly be lacking. Aside from missing possilbe packages I’m at a loss why this happens. ---

OK, the `apt list --installed` output is at [https://pastebin.com/LFaY4g2B](https://pastebin.com/LFaY4g2B) . ---

I tested both in a VM and on a live disk, both worked but once I reinstalled my distro it did not. So it does seem my system is causing some incompatibillity. ---

Is there anything useful in the editor log? Log file locations are documented at [https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/LogFiles.html](https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/LogFiles.html).
