Re: amd64 installation

[Alastair Basden <a g basden durham ac uk>]

Hi,
thanks for the reply...
yes, pango seems to be working correctly.

I've also noticed that if I run gtk-demo as root, rather than a user, 
instead of the segmentation fault I get:
gtk-demo: relocation error: gtk-demo: undefined symbol: g_fopen

though compiling one of the examples (calendar) and running it as root 
gives the segmentation fault as before.

fc-cache hasn't made a difference (that I can tell).

<(side note: I spent some time fighting suse enterprise on our amd64
<server, but it was just missing too many basic packages IMO. Of course
<you may not have this choice, but amd64 Ubuntu had all the packages I
<needed and correctly detected and configured all my odd server
<hardware ... worth a try)
no, can't use a different linux version (its for a Cray).


Thanks,
agb.
