How to run PureBasic in Ubuntu 7.10 x64?

Post by Frontier »

Hello,

I've tried to run PureBasic 4.10 under Ubuntu Linux 7.10 x64, but none of it's executable components run.

Anyone has an idea how to use PureBasic 4.10 under x64 Linux? I thought that this would be possible, like Windows x64 where you can still run 32-bit applications under WOW64.

Many thanks in advance.

you need the 32 bit packages from gtk etc. + devel.

then use:
sudo apt-get install linux32

... set your purebasic vars from readme
linux32 purebasic

I managed to install it on OpenSuse 10.2 x64 and 10.3 x64 with 32bit libs as described works like a charm.
I may not help with your coding

Thank you very much for the help.
The IDE loaded fine, but when I tried to compile an example source, it hanged.

I'll check into it tomorrow.
