First, your problem very likely is that you are using SuSE 6.x which had a "safety" patch that break our binary. Upgrade your system to SuSE 7.2 for best results, or if that is too much hassle and you want a quick fix with an RPM, upgrade the kernel package to 2.2.16 - they cleaned up the safety patch in that version so our binary can run on it. Second, do not get frustrated with Linux. From the comments you have made it sounds like you have not had a lot of Linux experience. Just be patient and gain some. Things do not always work out of the box. The power of Linux is not in plug-and-play works-great-with-defaults - it is in the ability to customize the system to make it do what you want it to. The price to pay for that is that you have to know what you are doing, and this comes after you've invested some time and effort into understanding how things work. -- MySQL Development Team For technical support contracts, visit https://order.mysql.com/ __ ___ ___ ____ __ / |/ /_ __/ __/ __ \/ / Sasha Pachev <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> / /|_/ / // /\ \/ /_/ / /__ MySQL AB, http://www.mysql.com/ /_/ /_/\_, /___/\___\_\___/ Provo, Utah, USA <___/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
