64 bit version?

I doubt it, but thought I'd ask: Is there a 64 bit version for AMD 64 processors?

Thanks

Not at this time, but if you have 32-bit emulation on in the Linux kernel, and the 32-bit emulation libs, SL runs fine.

OK, I got the 32 bit libraries and SL makes it past the first error, but now I get this in the last run log:

bin/secondlife-bin: error while loading shared libraries: lib/libfreetype.so.6: cannot restore segment prot after reloc: Permission denied

I have tried running as Root, but the same thing happens

any ideas?

TIA

I'm running SL fine on my AMD64 with compatibility enabled in the kernel.
Did you start SL with the script given in the root directory of the extracted folder? I also got error reports that looked slightly similar too yours when I tried to execute bin/secondlife-bin directly.
If you did start the right script (that contains the paths to all included libraries) could you maybe give some more information about your machine?

I am running Fedora 5 on a AMD 64 @ 1.8 ghz
The "secondlife" script in the root directory of the Secondlife folder contains this script:

#!/bin/sh
cd `dirname $0`
# HACK: MALLOC_CHECK_=0 is a temporary workaround for some glibc installations.
MALLOC_CHECK_=0 LD_LIBRARY_PATH=lib bin/secondlife-bin $@ 2>&1 | tee lastrun.log


when I run it straight, or in termal, it produces this Last Run Log:

bin/secondlife-bin: error while loading shared libraries: lib/libfreetype.so.6: cannot restore segment prot after reloc: Permission denied


Thanks in Advanced

I really don't have a good answer for you, except that it really does seem to be a problem specific to FC5, since a reloc error concerning that library seemed to bite a few other programs according to google, too.
Do you have SELinux running? You could try disabling that if you are.
Non-smp kernel might als be something (if applicable).
Again, the only thing that seemed consistent about the error message was SELinux.

(Since you previously tried running as root I also wanted to mention that in 99% of all cases running as root should not make a difference when running the SL client, as long as the graphics card is set up properly.)

hmmm graphics card...


I tried to install the Nvidia drivers, it looked like it worked and everything, the installer built a driver for my kernal cause it didnt have one premade, and it configured X11 and all that,. but when i rebooted in run level 5, x11 crashed and it reset my vid card to the defalt nvidia driver...


Could this be the problem?
