General :: How To Enable 32-bit Binary Compatibility On Linux Mint 11 X64
Jul 6, 2011
I've recently installed x64 Linux Mint 11, basically Ubuntu Natty. Since the install I've found that 32-bit applications which used to run on my Ubuntu system are rejected by my Mint 11 system. When I use the 'file' utility to check the binary, it correctly identifies it as a 32-bit elf, but I can't invoke the application. I've tried starting it from bash and os.system a la python, to no avail, so I suspect that it must have something to do with 32-bit binary compatibility mode but my knowledge of that sub-system and how to enable it is limited, can anyone assist?

I'm looking for an overview of binary compatible linux derivates to enterprise Linux versions. A usable definition of this compatibility is given on Wikipedia. I already know candidates for this:
CentOS (Community ENTerprise
Operating System) is binary
compatible to RHEL (Red Hat
Enterprise Linux).
SL (Scientific Linux) is binary
compatible to RHEL (Red Hat
Enterprise Linux).
I think there are for sure many more. Who can help? Maybe this will grow into a fine overview... I'd like to edit the question to complete it with the data from answers.

This is my second day of using Linux Mint and I have bunch of questions. Let's start with this one. I tried to play dvd movie yesterday night. I put disc in drive. And nothing happened. Like it's not in there. So I tried to double click (I'm old Windows user trying to learn new stuff) on cd/dvd disc in computer. It's unresponsive. I try right click run with application some kind of movie player. It says 'Could not open location. You might not have permission to open the file'.So I installed VLC and did the same thing but same message appears.So I look at google for the answer and didn't find much. And I was tired and went to sleep.
Today I wake up, turn on my laptop and surprise, surprise! There is some icon on my desktop saying 'Name of the show' (that was the dvd I was trying to open). So I double click it and there are all episodes. And I can now browse it and play any episode I want. So I say, 'hey, there must be something if I eject this dvd, and put it in again, I would have same problem as last night'. And I have. And problem is back. Now I cant play anything again.

In Ubuntu I could do this in the Updates tab of Software Sources, but in Linux Mint there is no Updates tab. I just want to install kernel version 2.6.38-9.

It appears that a write protected socket was established as a symbolic link between an audio file and the binary of the audio itself.
We are unable to remove the files and the holding folder. Attempted all possible combination of RM that I could think of and then graduated to shred. We are unable to do so code...

What determines whether I should enable ipv6 when installing Linux? so not sure whether it depends on my ISP, my hardware (network card or modem or router), my Linux kernel, my CentOS version (5.6), my requirements, etc.
So I'm not sure whether or not I should enable it. And if I were to, in the CentOS installation screen would I select 'Automatic neighbor discovery' or 'Dynamic IP configuration' or 'Manual configuration'?

NOTE! To use previews you need to activate KDE Compability in compiz settings manager and under KDE Compability check "Support Plasma Thumbnails". (Alternatively you can use kwin as window manager instead of compiz. That will give you previews for minimized windows as well.)
How is this done? I have CompizConfig Settings Manager and I can't find kde anywhere.
I am running Ubuntu 10.04 (gnome)

My card Wifi network doesn't turn on, even at loading configuration of the system is failed. I have to wait a long time until the system itself to load.
And when I write ifconfig or iwconfig is displayed in the console interface wireless card.
And when I come in the panel on the network card, it immediately pops up a window that you can not load the network card modules.
I don't know what could have happened, I do not recall that I recently messed with the system.
Here are the pictures: [URL]....
And here I join dmesg.log file, at the end of a failed: [URL] ....
I have linux mint 17 quiana cinnamon

I am trying to install gnome-bin 1.4.2 from source but it is telling be I need my Berkeley DB to have 1.85 compatibility mode - how do I do this? I've tried both the libdb4.2-dev package (which give the error below) and the libdb1-dev package (which tells me I am missing DB support all together).
Code:
checking for dbopen... no
checking for dbopen in -ldb... no
checking for dbopen in -ldb1... no
checking for __db185_open in -ldb-3... no
checking for __db185_open in -ldb-4... no
configure: error: Your db library is missing db 1.85 compatibility mode. How do I get Berkeley 1.85 compatibility mode on my system?

I am an activist. I am becoming concerned with security on line because I have posted videos exposing SERIOUS corruption within the government at all levels. With all the recent claims of executive authority in the name of cyber security and govt eavesdropping I am interested in finding a more secure op sys. Windows is to vulnerable. I have an HP7845 Sound Blaster 64 Sound card. Radeon 9800 video card. I have a large volume of videos and media/research reports I cant afford to lose. How easy is the conversion? And also concerned with software. Will programs work the same or at all?Is my equipment even compatible with other opsystems. Is there a risk of glitches that would curtail my efforts after attempting the change. I KNOW NOTHING about other systems hell I can barely run XP. However I would hate to lose files or go through a months long debugging venture.

If Apache license 1 and 1.1 are not compatible with GPL v2 and GPL v3 and the only compatibility is Apache License v2 with GPL v3 how can android kernel be GPL v2 and userspace programs be Apache License 2? More specifically GPL v2 requires all derived works and programs to have the same license as it has, therefore Apache shouldn't be allowed inside android. I've read on a website something like "Google created one middle layer between Linux kernel, without violating GPL. And 3rd party can't see the source code of hardware driver and app" and then "So in oder to get more vendor support, Google specifically modified Linux Kernel, transfer those features which should belong to Kernel, to its userspace source." The above seems vague explanation, even if you put a middle layer this middle layer becomes GPL and anything above as well.

I recently installed Deluge 1.2.0 from the following PPA:[URL]I using this on two different Linux computers. One is running Linux Mint 8 and the other is running Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.10. The first time on either computer when I enable WebUI in the Deluge GUI it works fine. However if I ever disable it in plugins section I am subsequently unable to re-enable it (doesn't appear in the side panel again). Rebooting or reinstalling Deluge seems to have no effect.Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

I removed my Ubuntu install and decided to replace it with Debian. I backed up the /home directory onto the Windoze installation on the other hard drive. That was a "home.disk" file. Now, I copied the file over to the Debian hard drive, and can't figure out how to recover the files. Is this possible to do in Debian?

Currently have just Linux on my main computer (brother built it for me, knew I wanted to try Linux, so just put Ubuntu on).
Old computer (very old, 256MB Ram etc) runs Windows 2000 very slowly, currently will only start up in safe mode (not sure whether this is because it's not currently attached to the router or printer, or whether more serious).
I'd like to put linux (qimo, DSL or puppy probably) on the old computer so my 3-year-old can use it instead of demanding the penguin game (tuxpaint) whenever I want to use my computer!
So, wondering whether to try and shrink the windows partition or whether to just go for linux only. That computer was second-hand as well, so I don't have the windows disks.
The two things I'm worried about:
1) sometimes do some web design, and how would I check whether IE will display my pages without strange problems 'cos it doesn't follow the standards...
2) printing out photos at short notice: husband picked the printer so we're lumbered with a canon pixma MX700. It can do basic printing but won't communicate with linux to do photo quality (no linux drivers...) If I have plenty of time I use a photo printing service such as photobox.
Any thoughts how I can get round these problems so I can just jettison windows without worry? I don't have the spare cash to buy windows 7 or whatever to run in a virtual box...
