How do I create an environment to compile the 32bit drivers and integrate them?!

:idea: Lets try and fix this with a 32bit compiling environment??? ...compile the driver in a similar 32 bit slackware ... copy the results to the lib32 etc folders and see if wow finally works?!?!! Let me know if this is a really bad idea / if there is an easier way plz! Outline of steps so far and...

ONLY SOLUTIONS SO FAR: 1) Get a laptop with an Nvidia Graphics card. 2) Run a 32bit OS with PAE (Driver installs correctly) The problem is similar to ... http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=93660 http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/slackware-14/wine-opengl-issue-with-neverwinter-nights-...

Thanks guys. Ill try a recompile of the official Catalyst 14 drivers ... the kernel module failed. Supported adapter detected. Check if system has the tools required for installation. Uninstalling any previously installed drivers. Unloading radeon module... Error: Module radeon is in use Unloading d...

Thanks Saintless ... The driver seems to load (change of res in the bootup text) but leads to a black screen which will not CTRL-ALT-BKSPACE. Conflict with the builtin driver?! As you (correctly) guessed I'm currently on porteus wheezy.. GTG for an hour or two ... Should I try DebianDog when I get b...

hehehehe ty Saintless - love ur avatar! I chose this distro because I thought it was debian based ... that's right yes?!?! ED: ooh.. just checked the porteus.org site ... ur right its slackware! ty for the link ... ill try that driver over the next hour (sloooow wifi here) and come back with result,...

Hi ... how can i find & install the headers required to compile the Proprietory ATI graphics driver?

ty in advance!

Having trouble getting at XP shares? I tried various things eg builtin LHP tools, YASIM, and slamming my face onto the keyboard repeatedly. After much messing around I installed: clarf_pnethood-0.66.pet mountcifs-1.5.pet and linked /bin/smbmount > /bin/mount at which point pnethood was able to mount...

..... it's a 5GB save file, so while it works fine, it boots really slowly now. If you are able to make a small (say 10gb?) linux partition on your drive formatted ext2 or ext3 ... you can boot from the usb key ... but have the savefile and sfs files stored on the (fast) hdd partition. LHP 602 like...

The problem is as follows... On LHP515F and LHP602, on installing the ATI Proprietory driver, there seems to be no installation of the 32bit OpenGL. As a result certain 32bit apps won't run in Wine (which means no World of Warcraft)! I'm also running LHP515F on an NVIDIA based box. This compiles the...

Hi all u LHP users out there! It's been a while since I checked these forums. What happened to Taz? So .. new laptop ... ATI Graphics onboard ... I've had a pop at integrating the Slackware 14.0 32bit compat / multilib packages as outlined here: http://docs.slackware.com/slackware:multilib # SLACKVE...

Mariners spend a long time away from home and therefore need to pack all the things they need for the voyage. Mariner versions accordingly are better stocked with software that is dispensed with in the light version. In the words of The Oracle, "I thought you'd have worked that out by now!".

So is my puppy COMPROMISED or NOT? Is the NSA on my tail?! Will a tinfoil hat protect me?

Just kidding!!!

However, there IS no need for the OS to know its external IP address. Just saying.

Hi Edoc -

Enigmail: Unable to locate GnuPG executable in the PATH.

I dont know that mail package, but you could try:

whereis GnuPG

or

type GnuPG

Yep - two missing dependencies

I installed the compiz on the slackware repo and *bing* working !

Trust a WOW head to figure it!

ty ty ty ty

LOL me!

Could someone outline the process to get compiz working on LHP 515F?

Hi there! Sorry to re-animate this post! Now trying 5.15 (small distro not mariner) ... Graphics driver seems fine... wine runs great... Xfce4 works, but Compiz wont fire up. I installed the Gvfs.sfs. Is it my xorg? or have I missed something? If I turn on 'indirect rendering' compiz half works... b...

Hi Q! Thanks for taking the time to go thru this with me. The NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-304.88.run worked as far as it goes... but only if i select NOT to compile the 32 bit compat stuff. The ELF class error is because you probably accidently clicked YES for installing the 32bit GL libs. (next time choose...

Hi again Taz... I've been running 513 all of this time and felt like trying to get current again! Of course with my onboard NVIDIA 6150 I've hit a problem installing a driver capable of direct rendering for WoW and Compiz... The available prebuilt driver doesn't include support for the 6150. I pulle...
