Unable to run MP v0.12 on Ubuntu x64?

Post by nihilist »

Hi guys, I'm new here, well, been lurking and using XnView for many years now, but now i have a question :)

I downloaded XnView MP v0.12 for Linux and unpacked it into my home/downloads dir.

Then tried to /.xnview.sh

but I get:

Code: Select all

./xnview.sh: 4: ./xnview: not found
I have not modified xnview.sh and executable is indeed present:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 nihilist nihilist 4.0M 2008-11-19 09:41 xnview

Am I missing something vital? I searched the forums prior to posting but couldn't find anything in terms of a Installer guide/FAQ for MP.

Thanks in advance.

To get 32 bit applications to work on some Linux, the following packages might be useful:
ia32-libs-gtk
ia32-libs
(I'm not using 64-bit OS at moment, so I cannot confirm this will really work here...).

Ah thanks, works now :)

Strange that it would say xnview not found when it was missing 32bit libs, odd. But now she works, w00t!
