It looks like you have to adjust your LD_LIBRARY_PATH variables in order for it work correctly in linux if using x64. If using x86 you should be able to use the same commandline options as windows, but your executable would be qzeroded.x86

To run x64 binary in the meantime you can copy the .so files in the linux64 subfolder into the same folder that has the qzeroded.x64 binary.

Still cant get this to run in the panel, i copied the .so files like you said and linked the qzeroded.x64, it runs fine if i type ./qzeroded.x64 from the command line but just does not run when trying to execute it inside the panel.

Are you getting any errors?

What does the capture console output tool show you (in the settings menu)?

If it failed to open the file writing, it's probably a permissions issue. The user the panel is running as (are you using apache or xsp?, and what is the process user?) will need read/write to ql and all it's subfolders.

Just released 1.88 of the panel that has Quake Live support. Also released some templates for Quake Live that sets the LD_LIBRARY_PATH you need for either x64 or x86 versions of quake live.
