Forgive me is this is the incorrect place to post this. I found an announcement for an older version of firfox on yahoo x86groups which seemed to indicate a post here might be ok.
I know it is weird but it would be very helpful to me to be able to run firefox on a sparc box (an old sunblade 100) in the data center and display it on my desktop (which happens to be a Dell optiplex running solaris express build 79b, but I can't imagine that matters). When I try to fire up firefox on the sunblade it fails with this ##> /bin/firefox ld.so.1: firefox-bin: fatal: relocation error: file /usr/ucblib/libucb.so.1: symbol _siguhandler: referenced symbol not found ld.so.1: firefox-bin: fatal: relocation error: file /usr/lib/firefox/firefox-bin: symbol gtk_init: referenced symbol not found Killed I have tried several versions of firefox, the latest being 2.0.0.14, and even the blastwave distribution. They all have failed in the same way. This only seem to be a problem with sparc flavors of firefox. I have one X4100 running solaris 10 amd64 and when I try this experiment, firefox 2.0.0.7 displays just fine on my local desktop. Googling this error, I have so far only found some info about an older version of tivoli looking for this library and thus failing to run. Those threads seemed to indicate that the application was trying to use a now-deprecated library. I had thought that perhaps I was missing a package but I have installed the SUNWCall cluster on this and other machines. They all seem to have the same problem. Any insight appreciated. thanks. -- Dennis Sexton System Administrator Stanford Highwire Press dws at highwire.stanford.edu 650 736-2918 office 650 279-1025 cell
