Is there any easy way to use the canned Debian package, made for the > i386 architecture, on my amd64 Ubuntu machines? There's no need to ditch your 64-bit installation. i386 binaries can run in a 64-bit system. However, if the program is dynamically complied (as quackle is), then you also need the corresponding 32-bit libraries installed on your system. Most 64-bit Linux distros ship with the 32-bit versions of most common system libraries, so that they can execute 32-bit programs without any problems. Read the following 2 articles, which explain this idea further, and offer suggestions for automating the process of getting the required libraries: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=474790 http://www.linux.com/feature/54218 Anand
