Re: [Solved]Wheres the ia32-libs package

ia32 isn't that 32bit? I never knew there were 32 bit libs for the 64bit oses... in any case here is the relevant page for statler assuming you are still running squeeze repos http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/ia32-libs

but, shouldn't you just be able to "sudo apt-get install ia32-libs" ?

Re: [Solved]Wheres the ia32-libs package

"ia32-libs" is only for 64-bit systems. Do you have an AMD64 edition of Statler?

Edit: if you do have a 64-bit system, make sure you run "sudo apt-get update" before trying to install "ia32-libs".

Statler didnt like my ATI 5770's much, so i am back in Arch 64bit (where the 32bit libs btw works fine)

Re: [Solved]Wheres the ia32-libs package

Are there multilib packages on debian?

I'm so meta, even this acronym

Re: [Solved]Wheres the ia32-libs package

If you mean ia32-libs, yes it exists for Debian as well:

http://packages.debian.org/search?searc … =ia32-libs
