Then you should be able to debug the application and see wether the device file is actually opened or not. Could it be that this is some data type issue that both the kernel module and the application use a type for communication that has a different size on a 32 bit platform and on a 64 bit platform? This way the 32 bit application would only work with a 32 bit kernel and the 64 bit application only with a 64 bit kernel.

I have a amd64 install of debian with a 32bit chroot for a couple of apps. This works great, but I have a question. Is it possible to have an application inside the 32bit chroot launch an application on my main 64 bit system? (e.g. a photo browsing program in the 32bit chroot launching gimp, which is installed in my main 64 bit system). I currently launch my 32bit programs with schroot and am hoping I can set something to make specific programs outside the chroot available... I cannot think of how this can be achieved, so any ideas are welcomed. Regards, Anton mkdir /chroot-32/chroot-64/ mount --bind / /chroot-32/chroot-64/ Then applications inside chroot-32 can just again chroot into chroot-64 to get back out. While this should work it is not necessary for many 32-bit applications. They will run fine if called directly outside the chroot. The 32-bit libraries need to be listed in /etc/ld.so.conf and /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (the 32-bit linker) needs to be present (possibly as symlink to /chroot32/lib/ld-linux.so.2). Then, many applications will run fine in the 64-bit environment and they can easily call 64-bit applications. Matthias -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

But I now see that I inadvertantly changed the partition type of sdb (when I intended sda). So I assume that is a lost cause. (?) Is there anything I can do now to recover? Actually I don't think there is anything you need to recover from. You have set the partition type of sdb1 to LVM and that is what it should be. That is assuming that you used sdb1 as PV and not sdb. Now you just need to do the same for sda2 and you should be fine. Reboot after that. Debian will activate the VG but it will not mount the LVs automatically. You still have to add them to /etc/fstab.

Vuescan and Nikon LS-40
Hi all, I used to use Vuescan 8.2.11 from Ed Hamrick http://www.hamrick.com together with my Nikon LS-40 (USB) to scan my photos. Unfortunately is a 32 bit binary only software. I had Vuescan installed under /usr/local/vuescan and the required libs via chroot according to the HOWTO. This worked happyly until the last time I used it sometime in April or so. The recent Debian kernel at this point probably was 2.6.8. Now, the other day I wanted to use my scanner again and Vuescan did not find the it. So I first updated Vuescan to the latest version at this time 8.2.26. Sometime in between 8.2.11 and 8.2.26 Ed Hamrick switched from GTK to GTK2. I did not find an easy way to configure 32 bit pango so I installed Vuescan inside the chroot and run it in there. Vuescan is now running but despite all the effort it still does not find the scanner. 64 bit XSane is working so it does not seam to be a hardware problem. However, 32 bit XSane inside the chroot does not see the scanner neither. In the hope to get a clue I run both XSane and Vuescan with strace. In its output with XSane i found: open(/proc/bus/usb/002/017, O_RDWR) = 6 ioctl(6, USBDEVFS_IOCTL, 0xb350)= -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument) close(6)= 0 That certainly does not look good. With Vuescan strace showed something similar. I guess it is some 32/64 bit type error. Since it worked with an earlier kernel: Has there something changed since kernel 2.6.8? I have mounted usbfs inside the chroot. Is there a problem with that? It should not be the cause since Vuescan 8.2.11 does not see the scanner outside the chroot neither. Has anyone a clue what I could do to get closer to my goal? Matthias -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
