RE: ia32-apt-get and nvidia
Hi all,
so now I have got the solution, maybe the following will help others.
nvidia-glx-ia32:
- Installed ia32-apt-get
- added the entry for apt Cache-limit in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20archives
- ia32-apt-get update / ia32-aptitude update == worked!
- added new kernel 2.6.30, reboot
- built latest nvidia-kernel for 2.6.30, installed
- added ia32-libx11-6 and ia32-libxext using ia32-apt-get
- installed nvidia-glx-ia32
google earth:
- make-googleearth-package did NOT work, bugreport sent
- the already created and installed googleearth-package did not work
- hint: if starting from a console in X shows you, which libs are not found
- add all missing libs using "ia32-apt-get" , for example, if libxrandr2 is
missing, do "ia32-apt-get install ia32-libxrandr2"
- after installing all missing libs, googleearth will work!
3rd-party-applications
- ia32-crossover-pro (commercial package) provides "ia32-libs", which were
deinstalled during upgrade to "ia32-apt-get", so
"dpkg -i ia32-crossover-pro.deb" did not work!
- solution: as all necessary libs are already installed (but with another
package name), forget abolut dependencies, just install using
"dpkg --force-depends -i ia32-crossover_XXX.deb" works!
Checked all applications! All are working fine.
Hope, this little report is helping other people.
Thumbs up!
Hans
