Running amd64 etch, and aimed at support for OpenGL graphics and mwm as window manager, may I ask about previous experience on installing lesstif-bin in place of the non available libmotif3? As far as I can understand, one should obtain the same performance. Implicitly, mwm is the max I wish

While I understand that to keep a purely 64-bit environment some recommend that AMD64 users set up a chrooted environment, I would like to know: 1. The practical disadvantages of installing the ia-32 libraries to run, for example, open office 2. After I have installed the ia-32 libraries,

I have successfully installed the chroot as described in the HOWTO. Both Firefox and openoffice are working. However, I only have a few fonts. When I tried to install other font packages such as xfonts-100dpi I receive Setting up xfonts-100dpi (1.0.0-2) ... warning: /usr/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi

ia32 chroot caveat(s)

2006-06-15 Thread edwardsa
While the chroot has relieved several problems with amd64, two issues should be raised: 1. Using the 32-bit firefox is problematic because it will not serve as a useful directory viewer unless one does some significant binding. a chrooted application only views the files within the chroot.

Hi all, I'm trying to compile a software in 32-bits mode on my AMD64. I installed the packages: o binutils-multiarch o ia32-libs o ... and all the packages related to these ones through the dependancies. Then, I compiled the software with the option '-m32'. It's quite fine for simple softwares

This confirms that I was right in reserving the 64bit machine for 64bit applications and the 32bit machine for 32bit applications. It is easy to communicate between the two. Because the calculations at 64bit are long lasting, I use a usb card reader to exchange files, but nothing prevents
