having the glibc224 package installed may solve it. -----Original Message----- From: Trevor B [mailto:tr...@ba...] Sent: Friday, 23 July 2004 02:10 p.m. To: John Leschorn Cc: thi...@li... Subject: Re: [Thinstation-general] RE: Thinstation-general digest, Vol 1 #656 - 1 msg required libraries: libc.so.6, ld-linux.so.2 with link to ld-2.2.2.so Thinstation 2.0 & 2.1beta4 are using ld-2.1.3.so Otherwise it looks like a fairly straight forward install, although it does say it requires root write access to /etc, which will be a problem (Hopefully they just mean at initial setup time).
