OK, so I learned my lesson with not clicking the minimise all in ubuntu and it seems to be working well. Now as part of putting together a new development machine I want to install Pharo in 64 bit Ubuntu. I'm not having much luck. Has anyone here done it?

Yes. You have to install the package ia32-libs to run the 32 bit VM in the 64 bit OS. I have not tried a 64 bit VM. apt-get install ia32-libs Then you should be able to run the one-click image from http://www.pharo-project.org with no problems. You can also install the latest CogVM from here: http://www.mirandabanda.org/files/Cog/VM/VM.r2359/coglinux.tgz Install Cog by unzipping that package in /usr/local/ (or maybe /usr/local/squeak/ I forget) If you install the CogVM you have to delete the so.UUIDPlugin from the VM directory or your VM will crash when you try to use any of the UUID classes which most of the time for me is saving work with Monticello.
Thanks all. I checked the ia32 lib file and it was already there. So, I tried again. I took the one-click image and: - copied squeakvm and all the so files into /usr/local/lib/pharo. - copied the image, changes, sources and all the bundle folders into /home/jeff/Pharo-1.1.1. - added a menu item executing /usr/local/lib/pharo /home/jeff/Pharo-1.1.1/pharo.image. Got a permissions problem message but a quick chmod sorted that out. Now all good. Not sure what the problem was first time round. Do-over always good :-) One question - what are all the .bundle folders and do I need them? Thanks, Jeff. -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Ubuntu-64-tp3351139p3353094.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
