Linker errors on Ubuntu 5.10

I'm assuming this has to do with the fact that I'm using a 64bit version of Ubuntu instead of the 32bit version, but I'm posting here to ask.

Anyhow, take a look at the errors and see if you can make anything out. If I find anything I'll post it. In the meantime, well, happy hunting.

from my understanding apt-get install x11-dev should install both 32 and 64 bit static libs, can't find anything on google

if the old 32 bit lib is called something else, you can modify glgraphics.bmx[47] to change the name of the x11 library bing linked :

?Linux
Import "-lX11"
Import "-lXxf86vm"
Import "-lGL"
Import "glgraphics.linux.c"
?

Yeah, I checked already, there are 32 bit libraries as well. I made sure to try adding them to LD_LIBRARY_PATH before posting this. I probably should've mentioned that.

I'll check to make sure they have the same name as their 64 bit counterparts -- as far as I know, they should be. If not, I'll see about modifying the imports for glGraphics.bmx.

Well, they did have the same names. Not sure what's up with it, the entire thing kindof went 'boom' before I could find a fix. Decided to just reinstall using the 32 bit version instead of trying to recover the 64 bit install.

Working fine now, so eh.
