I'm posting this for a friend as he's trying SL and NPIOF right now.
He'll try to run secondlife from the command line and he gets this:

./secondlife: line 107: arch: command not found


He then said"

line 107 appears to be:
if [ "`arch`" = "x86_64" ]; then which i'm not running, i'm running 32bit.

When I pressed him for anything else he'd like to add he said:
ubuntu, 8.04 hardy beta and gigs (Gigs Taggart) said arch was deprecated?
...but now that i think about it......everything gigs says is...."XXXXXX is deprecated" (you'd have to know Gigs Taggart to lol at that one)

Thanks in advance for any suggestions, tip, advice.

It looks like it's finding an error condition and shutting down "uncleanly." Arch doesn't have anything to do with it. If he wants to avoid getting that message, have him make sure arch is installed (it's probably part of a larger package). Ubuntu may not install it by default.

The real problem is it's detected an error condition and won't even run. Try playing with some of the configuration options at the top of the script and see if anything there makes it work. He may have some hardware issues to iron out.

arch is depreciated. Change line 107 to:

if [ "`uname -m`" = "x86_64" ]; then
