Plugin Problems With Mupen64 n Linux

I

I'm using Fedora Core 5 and just recently installed Mupen64. It runs fine but I cannot configure the plugins. The drop boxes seem to be disabled so I can't select a plugin, and when I hit the Configure, Test, and About buttons they all do nothing. Is there anything I'm doing wrong, or anything I can do to fix this? Sorry, didn't mean to post twice.

Yeah, I have them set read, write, and executable for user, group, and other. I even tried configuring them logged in as root and I get the same problem.

When I try to start Mupen through the terminal I get this error for all the plugins:

Couldn't load plugin '/root/.mupen64/plugins/tr64gl.so': /root/.mupen64/plugins/tr64gl.so: cannot restore segment prot after reloc: Permission denied

I get the same error logged on as root as well.

I have the persmissions set so I can use it.

Are you logged in X also with root or only on terminal?

edit:

i think you started mupen with root because of the output:

/root/.mupen64/plugins/tr64gl.so
/\

this is the root folder only root can access it.

I've tried it logged in X and in the terminal as root.

Yeah I was logged in as root cuz when I try running it under my username I get this for the plugins:

Couldn't load plugin '/home/Scott/.mupen64/plugins/dummyaudio.so': /home/Scott/.mupen64/plugins/dummyaudio.so: cannot restore segment prot after reloc: Permission denied

There are symbolic links in /home/Scott/.mupen64/plugins/ to /usr/share/mupen64/plugins and they are all there.

execute this command in your plugin folder
ls -la

you should get sothing like this in the begining of each line (not the configs):

-rwxr-xr-x 1 (username) (username) (size of the file) (date) (time) (pluginname.so)

There are too many rights on the file. Now check these files with

i.e. ldd glN64.so

so linux installation is correct (missing any libs?).

root root
user group

isn't a good option if you want to play n64 stuff with a normal user.
please check how fedora sets the group for installed programs (mostly /usr/bin or usr/local/bin)

When I execute the command I get command not found so I guess it's not installed. No I didn't build the plugin myself.

User permissions??
Create group games, chmod to everything in the directory and adduser?
May you need a script to make some links for save users data in '~/'. Mupen are running here with a global configuration. I don't know where I'm wrong, but WITH_HOME=$answer line 342 in configure file don't work in my Debian system.
And never adduser to root...
Take a look:
