I have recently installed firefox for AIX on my IntelliStation POWER 185 workstation. I am currently running 6.1 with all latest updates (as of today) applied. All prerequisites for firefox installed successfully.
When I try to execute firefox under my account, nothing happens, just back to #. When I try to execute as root, just to test, I get (firefox-bin:450796): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
or
/usr/mozilla/firefox/run-mozilla.sh[36]: 454904 Illegal instruction (coredump)
any ideas what is wrong, or at least where to look to find what is wrong?
Hi
Have you make test ?
I think that it can work the library at build is not type shared (as include)
This binary version run well AIX 4.3.3 , 5.1. 5.2 , 5.3 (Kernel 32)
AIX 6 or 6.1 I dont know ,i not have AIX 6.1 to make test
Is easy and interesting that to make test to comfirm that is nor running
Also: 6.1 is beta version as can download ???
Best regards
No, i haven't. I just conclude from professional experience that someone running 6.1 is most likely using a 64-bit kernel (in fact i have not even one system under 5.3 running a 32-bit kernel, let alone the 6.1 systems), so your point raised is moot:
And this:
... is really taking the biscuit. 6.1 is a official release, if you want to have it just go and buy it or get your IBM SR to give you one for free. The OP wants some information, i suppose he can tinker all by himself without needing us.
Hi
I have 2 computers 7025-F50 4 processor PowerPc
type 604e where operating system is AIX 5.3. installed
604e is 32 bits processor.... is not contest
If you think that professional must run only 64 Bit
is false I have 25 years programming system and I can read c/c++
language same you can read news.
Do not confuse programmer with user ...
Is difficult to build correctly as write to 32 bits to 64 bits to better
result
About binary compatibility AIX 6.1 read to IBM AIX Version 6.1 operating system - overview
to learn.....
Best regards
