Hi Fabio,
I assume you want to compile a 64 bit version.
I found this on the Boinc website:
http://boinc.berkeley.edu/trac/wiki/SystemRequirements
Linux 64-bit ¶

32-bit binaries don't just work on every 64-bit Linux. For example, on
Ubuntu 6.10 or 7.04, 32-bit binaries won't work. They are not even
recognized as valid executables. You first have to install the ia32 package
and dependent packages.

Further, for programs that link with the graphic library, you will manually
have to copy a 32-bit libglut library to the usr/lib32 directory. If after
this they still get client errors, tell them to find your exe in the
projects directory and run ldd to see what libraries are missing.
Cheers,
Jonathan


Oh thanks for the advice man..!
