GoogleEarth install
I am getting a series of errors from GE on install: timmy:/home/robbo# DISPLAY=:0.0 ./GoogleEarthLinux.bin Verifying archive integrity... All good. Uncompressing Google Earth for GNU/Linux 4.0.1693.. setup.data/bin/Linux/amd64/setup.gtk2: error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Where do I get libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0? Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server Xlib: No protocol specified Note that my initial command was DISPLAY=:0.0 ./GoogleEarthLinux.bin, I don't understand that with my DISPLAY set why this should occur?

Java and firefox
Exactly how does one get it running? I DL'd the x64 client from Sun, which recommends using the 32 bit client also for java script. I have downloaded both, putting the 32 bit client inside the chroot, and putting the 64 bit client in /usr/local/jre I have also put the location of the 64 bit client in my path, but to no avail? I pointed Konqueror at it, and its working fine. How can I get Firefox and Java to play together?

I am unaware that one could point debootstrap, or for that matter apt-get could be used in such away. I thought one had to point at a specific ftp location. Thanks for putting me down.

How does one shift this to get chroot running sarge or etch instead of sid? And how the heck do I point it at a more local server? I am still figuring out apt-get, but I am slaved to the links preconfigured. bootstrap has me baffled. debootstrap --arch i386 sid /var/chroot/sid-ia32 http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian -- Mountlake Terrace, WA -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

New to 64 bit/Sorta new to Debian....
I am currently running the unofficial sarge port to 64bits, and while I am now happy to have a computer back (building the new one took about 6 weeks, due to a crappy online seller), I am a little bummed to find myself seemingly out in the cold. I am a desktop user, running Linux for about 6-7 years, mostly on the RH side, having moved over to Debian about 3 months ago. First question how stable is etch? Should I just move on over right now, or should I wait a little? For those running Sarge, how can one upload openoffice? It appears to be in a vicious circle, not wanting to upload due to no dependancies being selected, add them into the upload, and it still fails? Could I run the 32 bit version, or could I force the issue somehow? How about Backports? Is there hope of getting something newer though them? What about Sarge source packages? Can I compile them on this machine and end up with 64 bit code? Thanks- Rob -- Mountlake Terrace, WA -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
