Hi Sam,
This is most likely because you're running 64-bit Linux and the k3util
is a 32-bit app. You will need to install a bunch of 32-bit libraries
to get it to work. I reproduced the problem on Fedora 18 64-bit, and
got the k3util to work after installing several 32-bit RPMs. On Mint,
it *may* be as simple as 'sudo apt-get install ia32-libs'. If that
doesn't do it, try this:
ldd '/home/sam/elecraft/k3util_1_13_6_17/k3util
Libs/RBGUIFramework.so' | grep 'not found'
to see what you're missing...

I have just installed Linux Mint 15. I use to run Linux years ago, but have

I have unpacked the K3UtilityLINUX_1_13_6_17.tgz and placed it in a folder
in my ~/ directory. But when trying to run the k3util executable,
I get errors that I am clueless as to how to fix them.
sam@AMD4 ~/elecraft/k3util_1_13_6_17 $ ./k3util
Failed to find/load Framework library

. .. .directory Help k3util k3util Libs
sam@AMD4 ~/elecraft/k3util_1_13_6_17/k3util Libs $ ls -a
. .. libRBAppearancePak.so libRBBrowser.so libRBRegEx.so libRBShell.so
libRBXML.so RBGUIFramework.so SSLSocket.so
I'm guessing that means a path needs to be added, but before I fubar my
system, I thought it best to ask for help and guidance on the 'correct'
location and way to do this.
sam@AMD4 / $ echo $PATH
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games
I doubt this topic is of interest to the 'list' in general, so I'm open to
on/off list help from any penguinestas out there in elecraft land.
