Well, I took the plunge...Erased the Xubuntu 11.04 again....And went with another Distro I found...Linux Mint 11...Crunching Primaboinca rigth now!! :p:cool::cool:

Prima is an x86 app so you will need to use an app_info file (Anonymous Platform) to run Prima, but I do not have one. Sorry. Hopefully triggl or one of the other Linux Gurus can help.

Edit: Idea, you could run Virtualbox with 32bit Ubuntu. Might be easier in the long run.

Note: You could try an Ubuntu minimal CD (Ubuntu striped down to bare-bones). Look here ---> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD

Edit again: You posted again b4 I finished this one. Glad you got it crunching. :-bd

I don't currently run an app_info anywhere. None is required for primaboinca. Beer probably just didn't have the 32-bit libraries installed.

Many Linux users at a board I go to believe that Mint is the best distro to start out with. Basically, it's Ubuntu with improvements.

Well, it definately looks like a great place to start out!...Java, flash and other "handy stuff" comes pre-installed - so that's nice. Youtube videos plays instantly...:D

For now it looks like a keeper - but as I get to know more I suspect I will move on to a higher level....:cool:

Thats what I started to post but when I did a net search I got quite a few hits regarding app_info file for x64 linux hosts running x86 apps

Great! My first attempt many years ago was with RedHat 5.5 IIRC. Not a great experience after the install. Ubuntu ended up being my gateway into the Linux world. Anyhow, good stuff there Beer. Lots to learn. Enjoy :D

What kinda of Linux are you running these days?

What kinda of Linux are you running these days?

I have Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx) on my Sony Laptop. As soon as I get a replacement hard drive for my Dell laptop I'll reintstall Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick Meerkat) on it. Most issues I have had with Ubuntu have been fairly easy to resolve, unlike quite a few Windows issues that still bother me.

Debian and RH/Fedora. I prefer stability over bells and whistles.
