why isn't there a 32-bit version of libglu in /usr/lib? I try to run a 32-bit program on my multi-lib Slackware current install but it complains that it can not find libglu.so. This used to work well, don't know what I changed. I have updated mesa from git and mesa-compat32 is installed.
View 6 RepliesI'm trying to run Kega Fusion on my laptop, which can now FINALLY run Linux (ATI drivers finally work on it), and I can't get the emulator to work..
Code:
brandon@brandon-laptop:~/Desktop/Fusion$ ./Fusion
./Fusion: error while loading shared libraries: libGLU.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
brandon@brandon-laptop:~/Desktop/Fusion$ uname -a

Help? I have the ATI proprietary drivers installed. I tried without them and it still wouldn't work. (And OpenGL is seemingly working as Compiz Fusion is running. I also tried with Compiz disabled but the same error pops up).

Slackware 12.0 I have installed only CDs one and two of the set of slack 12.0 CDs. According to Slack, it's all I need to make the system work. Now I've done
Code:
bash-3.1$ locate -i audacity
/usr/share/icons/mono/scalable/apps/audacity.svgz
/usr/share/apps/kappfinder/apps/Multimedia/audacity.desktop
bash-3.1$
and I am wondering where these two files can have come from. I get the same output if I run locate as root. May be the whole audacity package is somewhere in the rest of the disk set. But I have no way to find out, except downloading them one by one and reading throu the PACKAGES.TXT files. Unfortunately, the slackware.org no longer supports its package browser.
EDIT: there is only one PACKAGES.TXT file in the distro, and it is on disc 1. And audacity is nowhere mentioned in it. Corollary: My slack distro does not include audacity. But then, what are those two files doing in my system?
I have just installed Slackware 13.0 64 bit on my laptop. I am trying to get my wireless card (Broadcom BCM4318) to work. It is dual boot with Windows XP 32 bit. I tried the ndiswrapper and everything seemed to go okay but when I ran ndiswrapper -l it said it was the wrong driver. Then I realized I was using the 32 bit driver from my windows install. Is there a 64 bit driver available. I can't seem to find one. I have searched the broadcom site but I guess this is too old for them to support. I previously used Zenwalk 32 bit on the laptop and ndiswrapper worked great. Should I be able to find a 64 bit driver or can I get the 32 bit to work? Do I need to go back to a 32 bit OS? I found the proper driver using google, downloaded, installed with ndiswrapper, rebooted and everything works. It connected automatically.

Firefox 2.0.0.20 has that feature. But, despite teh presence of the .SlackBild, threre is no compilation here. It's a patch realized over the binaries already installed in my machine. The question is: How does the .SlackBuild know he is in the presence of 2.0.0.4? That is, he cannot update if he does not know from where it is starting.

View 12 Replies View RelatedThere seems to be a typo on Slackware.com security advisory webpage for the updated ssl packages (but not for the actual packages on ftp.slackware.com). The webpage says this:
openssl-0.9.8m-i486-1_slack12.2.tgz
openssl-solibs-0.9.8m-i486-1_slack12.2.tgz
The package in the ftp.slackware.com/12.2/patches/packages repository is:
openssl-0.9.8n-i486-1_slack12.2.tgz
openssl-solibs-0.9.8n-i486-1_slack12.2.tgz
I am guessing its a typo on the webpage because I already have an 'm' installed.
I am a complete noob in the Linux community, having JUST installed my first Linux distro on my PC (that being Slackware 13.37).That having been said, please be patient with my TOTAL confusion is this regard : How do I determine which version of a package I need to download (in this example, I will use Yakuake, a program I AM trying to find at the moment!). I have done searches on the internet of the type"Yakuake for Slackware", etc., and I have always found results that I believed were a link to the correct version. However, when I finally have the package downloaded (I have downloaded BOTH source packages as
well as the build app.), they are always for a DIFFERENT VERSION!
This is most frustrating...; is there a "listing" of different packages that are compatible with a specific distro / version? I realize that, in many cases, I may require a newer version of a library, etc., but again, how do I determine this ahead of time, before I bother downloading the actual app. I wish to install? I can use another example - I attempted to install OpenOffice; I began by searching for OpenOffice for Slackware / KDE (as some sources indicated that Gnome was the required gui for this package...).I found a site with an install cd .iso that was supposed to be multi-platform KDE compatible, but NONE of the versions would install on Slackware 13.37... - you get my point?
I have several server (mailserver, webserver and lot of fileserver) all are 32 bit slackware and I am satisfied! My company plan to upgrade our server and buy a 64 bit server maybe amd x3 or opteron? Is slackware 64 bit will help boost my server performance? Or will I stick to 32 bit for now?

Midori relies on WebKit.
When I try to install WebKit using the slackbuild script, I receive the following error:

Does anybody have a Slackbuild script which delivers a version of Digikam more recent that 1.2 (which is what is on offer in Slackbuild.org) ? I have had that installed for some time and it works well (apart from geotagging which seems to be only partially developed) but the Digikam website has released 1.9 (stable) and 2.0 (quite advanced beta).
If anybody has successfully packaged any later versions for Slackware I would be grateful for information. Otherwise I will start building myself.
I want to upgrade Apache, PHP, and MySql from a default version I'm having in my installed Slackware. What is the proper step to do this? Will it cause some problem if I upgrade them?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have HandBrake 0.9.4 installed from Slackbuilds.org, but a new version came out yesterday that I want to install, but it isn't up on slackbuilds yet. Can I install it from source without doing anything to the old install?
When I installed it from slackbuilds, the slackbuild script also installed all the external multimedia libraries that I need. If I use removepkg (or whatever the command is) to remove the old HandBrake before installing the new one, will that also remove the multimedia packages that were installed along with handbrake? They were all built into the same .tgz
On my work computer so I can't do anything with it right now anyway, so maybe a slackbuild will be up when I get home.
Experienced that building the vbox guest additions (on the binary/non-free vbox) on a slackware --current guest (with windows *and* linux as a host) fails now with the new kernel's just released in --current?
