Thank you very much for the results and the log. The future does indeed look promissing. But I do have a question about openoffice/chroot. As far as I could figure it out, the prepared solution was to install the openoffice package with a 32bit binary under /, and tell ld.so to use libraries from a 32bit chroot to resolve openoffice. At least that works nicely for me. But now I see hints to use dchroot. And while to me as a developer that seems fine, I think it is not a feasible solution for the "end user". The chroot environment has so many subtle difference compared to the normal environment, that it could be very confusing. At the end of the day, the installation should appear as one system, and not as a split personality :-) So is there any option planned to run openoffice (and other 32bit apps) directly? It might still be located in /emul/i386, but I would like to call it directly, without the dchroot wrapper. I think openoffice can be installed into any directory, so it should be possible. Thomas
