Dear Gordon, dear Forum,

>From this I guess that you cannot start any (dynamically linked) 32-bit
application on that machine. 

The requirements for the 32-bit GAP executable are very small, you just
need to install the 32-bit version of the standard C library (with the
corresponding linker).

Your Linux distribution should contain a package for that, called something
like libc6-i386 or libc6:i386 or glibc.i686 or similar. I thought that
this would be installed by default on almost any x86_64 Linux machine.

Best regards,
  Frank
