Re: I really need help!

Hi,

I had the same problem. See the thread Where is /etc/rc.d/rc.local on Debian
in this mailing list a couple of days ago.

No, there isn't any autoexec.bat in Linux. You will have to put stuff you
want to start in etc/init.d and then update the boot scripts so that your
additions also get included for the different runlevels. Again, there is a lot
of information in that thread I mentioned regarding this. It was no
is no simple task for a Linux newbie like me to grasp the boot system of Linux,
but I did get what I needed to run running.

 You don't install symbolic links, you create them ... do `man ln' for more
 information (`ln -s' will create a symlink).
 
 As for an autoexec.bat, not sure, I guess it depends on what you want to do,
 but mostly /etc/profile, or ~/.bash_profile, ...

There are several different things that you could call analogous to
autoexec.bat.  The one you probably want to modify is called .profile.  Just
say editor .profile.  If you end up in somthing that you can't understand,
it's probably vi.  To get out of it, hit ^C, then :q!.  Then say apt-get
install ee at a prompt to install a more user-friendly editor.

 I need this because I have downloaded Blender(3d Software), 
 and i must install symbolic links. But because I don't know 
 how to do this before running Blender I need to execute a 
 LARGE command.
 Do you know how ot install symbolic links?
ln -s source file destination file
Note that the source file is the one that gets created, and becomes
(effectively) another name for the desrination file.  If you should happen
to get them reversed (which I do all the time), then you'll get an error
message; just reverse the two again.

Yes

No; that's the wrong way round.

The source is the one that already exists; the destination is the
new link to be created.

ln (link) is analogous to cp (copy) and mv (move, rename), which may
help one to remember which way to put the arguments.

Howdy Y'all

There is a way to set up an autoexec.bat kindof thing in Debian, based on each
user... in the users home directory, edit the .bash_profile This works if you 
are
using the bash shell.

1998-07-31 Thread Mario Filipe
Hi

Like i've said before, upgrading from bo to hamm broke my X. Namely evrything
that is  in xbase does not work. THat means xinit, xterm , startx, xauth, etc.

When I try to run any of these programms i get the following:

xterm: error in loading shared libraries
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.so.6: undefined symbol: _Xglobal_lock

I've looked into this library and :

12:01:57 mjnf neptuno# ld /usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.so.6
ld: warning: cannot find entry symbol _start; not setting start address
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.so.6: undefined reference to `_Xglobal_lock'
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.so.6: undefined reference to `_XUnlockMutex_fn'
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.so.6: undefined reference to `_XLockMutex_fn'

and ...

12:02:43 mjnf neptuno# ldd /usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.so.6
libX11.so.6 = /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libX11.so.6 (0x4001)
libc.so.6 = /lib/libc.so.6 (0x400ae000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 = /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x)

I've tryed to reinstall all the packages without success. 

On an act of dispair of tryed to hand compile the thing (i thing i messed up
because i ended up compiling the entire xfree stuff!HUGE), but in the end
(after several hours of compilation) it didn't work. I noticed during the
compilation of XF86Setup that it said something about needing tk4.1 well :

12:03:01 mjnf neptuno# dpkg -l | grep tk
ii  tk404.0p3-5The Tk toolkit for TCL and X11 v4.0 - Run-Ti
ii  tk414.1p1-2The Tk toolkit for TCL and X11 v4.1 - Run-Ti

So am i missing something! Is there Hope for me! PLEASE just anwser me even if
it is to tell me that i can shoot myself in the head!

Any aditional info that you need just ask i'll give it to you (well ... not any
kind ... i'm not ready yet to give you my root password )...

Thanks (I eagerly await your awnsers)

The dynamic loader tries to load it against a libc5 library,

 libc.so.6 = /lib/libc.so.6 (0x400ae000)

but it is a libc 6 library.

Did you install the xlib6g package, which contains the libc6 X libraries?
