multilib - How do I know if it worked?


Hello. I am a new Slack user. I've been using it about a month. I've followed the guide at http://docs.slackware.com/slackware:..._support_tools to get mutilib into my system. I have executed the following commands:
Code:
542  SLACKVER=14.2
  543  mkdir multilib; cd multilib
  544  lftp -c "open http://bear.alienbase.nl/mirrors/people/alien/multilib/ ; mirror -c -e ${SLACKVER}"
  546  slackpkg search lftp
  547  slackpkg install lftp
  548  lftp -c "open http://bear.alienbase.nl/mirrors/people/alien/multilib/ ; mirror -c -e ${SLACKVER}"
  549  cd ${SLACKVER}
  550  upgradepkg --reinstall --install-new *.t?z
  551  upgradepkg --install-new slackware64-compat32/*-compat32/*.t?z
Now, how to I determine if the process worked?

I think you could try to install a pre-compiled 32bit package.
For example, I just installed steamclient on my multilib system and it seems to work fine.

I installed it and ran steam and it loaded a Steam user agreement, so I assume that it is working correctly?

Yes, go down to the end of the user agreement (I used the spacebar if I remember right), type 'y' and hit ENTER to accept. At this point you should see the program running

This is probably related to your graphic driver. Could you provide some info about your configuration?

I don't know exactly what your asking for, as I installed this off a LiveUSB of Slackware64 and haven't changed anything hardware-wise. This is what I know:

Does this help?

Here's a q&d test ...

Alien Bob provides /etc/profile.d/32dev.sh which sets your environment to build 32-bit programs.

EDIT: more specifically, Alien Bob's multilib Package 'compat32-tools-3.7-noarch-1alien.tgz' provides the /etc/profile.d/32dev.sh script

Below is a Konsole session where I build and test Program /tmp/hello as a 32-bit ELF Program

Cut-n-Paste this test program into /tmp/hello.c using your favorite editor:

Code:
#include <stdio.h>

int main( )
{
   printf( "hello 32-bit world!\n" ) ;
   return( 0 ) ;
}
Then follow along on the session below.

-- kjh

Code:
# pounded lines are comments ... no need to type them :)
#
# optional:  don't mess with my native x86_64 environment ; run a new shell

sh

# source Alien Bob's 32-bit Dev Environment into my new sub-shell ( note the syntax is dot-space /etc/profile.d/32dev.sh )

. /etc/profile.d/32dev.sh

# note that your prompt has changed ... if so, you're all set to compile a 32-bit program

# my prompt now looks like this:  konrad@kjhlt6 (32bit):~$

# compile a 32-bit program

gcc -o /tmp/hello /tmp/hello.c

# what kind of file is /tmp/hello ?

file /tmp/hello

# output:  /tmp/hello: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib/ld-linux.so.2, not stripped

# run /tmp/hello

/tmp/hello

# output:  hello 32-bit world!

# exit out of the 32-bit subshell

exit

# your prompt should now return to normal.
If the file command is OK and /tmp/hello generates output, you're OK.

# for completeness, this is Alien Bob's /etc/profile.d/32dev.sh

# cat /etc/profile.d/32dev.sh

To kjhambrick, you're 32-bit test worked, thank you. I would still really like to know how to get rid of that GLX error though. Steam isn't the only thing it's affecting. I switched to Slackware because I want to learn to think in Slackware terms. So my first step I think would be to ask how a Slackware user would approach this problem. I've been told on other threads that I should not go outside of slackpkg, slapt-get, and SlackBuilds, so the answer must be somewhere within those systems.

I am not a gamer so I don't know steam from ice

Here is another test using Alien Bob's /etc/profile.d/32dev.sh and glxgears ...

Open two terminals in your favorite x session ...

In one terminal:

Code:
# start a new subshell

sh 

# source Alien Bob's /etc/profile.d/32dev.sh

. /etc/profile.d/32dev.sh

# run glxgears ... does it work ?  Mine does in 32-bit mode ( see below ).

glxgears

# after it's run a few seconds, press [Ctrl][C] to kill it.
While it's running, type in the other terminal:
Code:
lsof |grep glxgears
If you see /usr/lib/* instead of /usr/lib64/* in the lsof output, I believe your Multilib is good to go.

See below for lsof output on glxgears run natively as x86_64 vs 32-bit.

Yes, I was referring to hardware and some system info.

Also look at the file(s) called /var/log/Xorg.n.log, where n is a number (i.e. Xorg.0.log). The lines starting with (EE) which represent errors could be a good starting point.

sh 

# source Alien Bob's /etc/profile.d/32dev.sh

. /etc/profile.d/32dev.sh

# run glxgears ... does it work ?  Mine does in 32-bit mode ( see below ).

glxgears

# after it's run a few seconds, press [Ctrl][C] to kill it.
You don't need to use 32dev.sh prior to run the 32-bit version of softwares like glxgears which are stored in /usr/bin/32 :
Code:
$ ls /usr/bin/32
aoss                  esdmon                  glxheads                      libglade-convert            mysql_plugin               setfattr
aria_chk              esdplay                 glxinfo                       libieee1284_test            mysql_secure_installation  setsid
<snip>
esddsp                glxdemo                 ldapwhoami                    mysql_find_rows             scriptreplay
esdfilt               glxgears                libart2-config                mysql_fix_extensions        sdl-config
esdloop               glxgears_fbconfig       libgcrypt-config              mysql_install_db            setarch


$ file /usr/bin/32/glxgears
/usr/bin/32/glxgears: ELF 32-bit LSB  executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped

$ /usr/bin/32/glxgears
Running synchronized to the vertical refresh.  The framerate should be
approximately the same as the monitor refresh rate.
304 frames in 5.0 seconds = 60.778 FPS
301 frames in 5.0 seconds = 60.008 FPS
300 frames in 5.0 seconds = 59.999 FPS
...
about the OP issue, maybe the output of commands below could give us some clues :
Code:
$ glxinfo 

$ /usr/bin/32/glxinfo

What's the Slackware way for getting GLX? On my old distro, I would be headed into /usr/src/linux rebuilding the kernel. I don't think that's the Slack way though, so what is?
