I need some help from a linux guru to get the K3 Utility working. I am running Xubuntu 11.10 64bit. I downloaded and expanded the k3utility_1_4_1_8.tgz from http://www.elecraft.com/K3/software/k3utility_1_4_1_8.tgz
when I tried to run the k3util using the command: ./k3util from my /home/<user> directory I see the error saying it can't find libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 searching what package contains this missing file using this page: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=oneiric&arch=amd64&mode=filename&searchon=contents&keywords=libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 the results say: You have searched for filenames that contain libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 in suite oneiric, all sections, and architecture(s) amd64. Found 5 results. File /usr/lib/debug/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0.2400.6 can be found in Package libgtk2.0-0-dbg File /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 can be found in Package libgtk2.0-0 File /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0.2400.6 can be found in Package libgtk2.0-0 File /usr/lib32/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 can be found in Package ia32-libs File /usr/lib32/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0.2400.6 can be found in Package ia32-libs I'm in windows7 right now so, I can't immediately try installing any of those packages earlier today, I already tried installing the libgtk2.0-0 package got a message that it was already installed on the machine but afterwards I was still unable to locate the needed libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 file anywhere on the machine since my linux skills are quite rusty, my question is: when I do get the missing ibgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 file installed I think, I will also need to create a sys link in the directory where the libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 gets installed to the directory where the k3util expects to find it, some thing like ln -s /usr/something/something /usr/something/something_else as you can see I definatly need some degree of elmering with this so please contact me off list and I will post a summation reply when I get this ironed out and working TIA -- GB & 73 K5OAI Sam Morgan ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
