  is there standard way to build 64 bit modules (nvidia, rt2500)  with

  i guess 64bit chroot may be solution, but any other ?
 
 Doesn't it just work? Works for the kernel as it automatically adds
 -m64 as needed.

it doesn't work.
after some testing i discover these results:

under 32 bit kernel, command

m-a  -l 2.6.21-2-k7 a-i kqemu

end successfully, but

m-a  -l 2.6.21-2-amd64 a-i kqemu

end with error:

`/usr/src/modules/kqemu/kqemu-mod-x86_64.o', needed by
`/usr/src/modules/kqemu/kqemu-mod.o'.  Stop.


under 64 bit kernel, both 
m-a  -l 2.6.21-2-k7 a-i kqemu
m-a  -l 2.6.21-2-amd64 a-i kqemu

Ah! I downloaded the linux version (suggested from the website)
called JXv3.2_install_linux.bin.

 $tar cjf  JXv3.2deploy.tar.bz2
 $cd jxplorer
 $sh jxplorer.sh
 And the program appears but I have not got a clue what it does :)

With the 'deploy' version it does it also for me ;-) And its a nice
graphical LDAP Frontend.

 I am using
 /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java

It runs also with the etch version 'sun-java5'.

Thanx for downloading, testing and solving the issue!

 Perhaps you have more packages than needed installed (I'm referring to
 the ia32 packages).  I don't know if you need them, but with all the
 suggestions given and the following packages installed, Java works fine
 on this system:
 
 sun-java6-bin
 sun-java6-demo
 sun-java6-doc
 sun-java6-fonts

You are right. I kicked the ia32-sun-java5 deb package and it still runs .

flash for etch amd64?

2007-07-03 Thread Douglas Allan Tutty
I'm running Etch on amd64 on my Athlon64.  I use Konqueror.

I have the libflash-mozplugin installed but flash sites (and adobe's
test site) don't work.

After I came back from holidays, I reactivated my subscription to the
debian lists and saw a reference to something like now that flash works
for amd64 but there was no link, footnote, whatever.  I tried to google
for 'flash solved site:lists.debian.org' but didn't get anything
current.

I don't want to go the route of a 32-bit chroot just for flash.

If there really is a way to view flash sites in amd64 without a chroot,
could someone reply with a link and change the subject to include
[solved] ?

Thanks,

Doug.

Hi Doug,

you can try the packages gnash or klash. Sometimes flash will work with 
them. I had success with mozilla firefox on flash-sites, but there is no 
guarantee, it will always work. Klash made problems, too, on some websites, 
especially www.heise.de. There sometimes is opening a window with a 
comment fscommand not recognized, whatever this might mean. With konqueror 
and klash installed (klash is for KDE), the cpu`s work increases to 100 
percent.  

Flash in mozilla and in konqueror seem to work different. 

I had success with an installed 32-bit opera. It seems, opera is using its own 
flash, and , as it is 32-bit and is working together with the libs out of the 
chroot, is is working fine. 

Oh, I forgot to explain: All programs I use, are not running in the chroot. I 
have a sid-chroot installed (minimalistic), and the paths are 
in /ld.so.cache. So every application is using the correct libs, whatever it 
needs. So: The chroot is only for holding the needed 32-bit-libs.

Hint: keep the chroot as minimalistic as possible, as some libs could 
interfere with the 64-bit-libs, i.e. the nvidia-glx-32 of the 64-bit-systems 
is interfering with the nvidia-glx in the chroot. 

I might be possible, to install the flash-packages in the chroot, but this is 
not tested by me, just an idea. 

O.k., I hope, this will help a little bit.

Best regards and good luck

Hans

I also learned from adobe's site that there's a difference between

I'm running Etch not sid as this is may main box and I need the
stability.  Gnash or klash are not in etch.

The only time I get my CPU to 100% is using digiKam to blowup an image
from a thumbnail to 1024x768; takes 45 seconds.

Actually, most of my daily browsing happens from my PII with Konq via
ssh to the Athlon.  I couldn't figure out how this would be interpreted
by the end-user licence agreement for adobe's flashplayer.

Also, as I said, I don't want a chroot.

aptitude initialising package status takes _really_ long

Hi Wolfgang,

I have the same problem (also running sid). There is a bugreport by me 
relating to this behaviour.

Maybe it will be fixed soon.

 It does I believe it was somewhere around 3.5.6 for Konqueror where the 
 change 
 was made to allow it to use the flash. Have you actually installed the flash 
 with nspluginwrapper -i libflashplayer.so in the directory where you put 
 the .so. I put mine in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/ then once the install 
 command was run scanned for new plugins in Konqueror and it worked.
 

I was mistaken.  I do not have nspluginwrapper installed, but the
konqueror-nsplugins.

nspluginwrapper is only in testing not Etch.

Lenny is still to young for me yet.

When I run that command in the /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins directory I get this
error..

debian:/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins# nspluginwrapper -i libflashplayer.so
*** NSPlugin Viewer  *** ERROR: libflashplayer.so: cannot open shared object

Here are the steps from my experience,

2) tar xzvf install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz

4) cp -v flashplayer.xpt libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/
5)  nspluginwrapper -i /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so

It works well with my system (Lenny AMD64).

Please take note,

If you could get it to install locally you should have no problems.  As 
you say, it may not be possible because it could rely on newer packages 
(such as libc6, etc.).  The dependencies of nspluginwrapper include 
ia32-libs (=1.6) and libc6-i386 (=2.5-5) among others.

  Be careful here.  Etch uses 'libc6' version 2.3.6, but the

  If your package manager brings in all of the dependencies needed

the Debian sources for those packages also put dependencies on 
'nspluginwrapper' sources for 'libc6' and 'gcc' that are higher than 
versions available for Etch!  Bummer.


  The upstream sources really don't have all of these burdensome 
dependency requirements, so if someone was kind it should be possible 
to build packages for 'nspluginwrapper' that will run on Etch.

  You could try this:

http://www.dipconsultants.com/debian/

I have not tried this yet -- maybe will try later today -- so the 
packages may not exist or may be out of date, or something.  It's the 
only repository I've been able to locate with Etch packages of 
'nspluginwrapper'.  I also cannot speak for the security of these 
packages -- my apologies to the folks at DIP Consultants if they are 
fine, upstanding folks! -- so you may want to think twice about 
installing them at all.  In my case, I have just gotten my first AMD64

 If there really is a way to view flash sites in amd64 without a chroot,

You can run a 32-bit firefox binary, and the flash plugin will work with

 I suppose you could use snapshot.debian.net to obtain that version
 that works very good until now in etch
 

Retreiving it now. It also depends on ia32-libs-gtk which is unavailable
in etch so I'm getting version 1 of that (since 2 just came out, its
later than nspl* 0.9.

I'm just getting the debs and I'll install them with dpkg.  I don't want
to contaminate my apt system.

I'll also check out backports.org.  I've never needed to look there
before.  

Doug.

 Now that I see it that is the command I used with the full path don't know
 if it makes a difference or not with the success of the install.

It does seem to make a difference. I installed libflashplayer.so again using 
the full path and it works. I just spent the last few minutes watching 
reuters oddly enough, flash is working on amd64, one way or another.. :)
