2x on 64 Bit Linux

I have Fedora Core 10 64 bit, and while the 2x client installs on it, it complains about some missing libraries...which, upon further examination, makes sense, because it is looking for 32 bit libraries. Is there plans for a version that supports 64 bit Linux? Or instructions on how to get the 32bit version running on 64bit?

Thanks!
 
Figured out how to get it running...I took the following files from a 32 bit install of linux, and copied them to /usr/lib on the 64 bit box...

libc.so.6 libICE.so.6 libXau.so.6 libXi.so.6
libdl.so.2 libm.so.6 libXcursor.so.1 libXrandr.so.2
libexpat.so.0 libpthread.so.0 libXdmcp.so.6 libXrender.so.1
libfontconfig.so.1 librt.so.1 libXext.so.6 libz.so.1
libfreetype.so.6 libSM.so.6 libXfixes.so.3
libgcc_s.so.1 libX11.so.6 libXinerama.so.1


I can now get into 2X, but it won't connect to my 2x application server...I can remote desktop (from that same linux box), using rdesktop.

I do get the following when launching it from a terminal window:

QIconvCodec::convertFromUnicode: using ASCII for conversion, iconv_open failed
QIconvCodec::convertToUnicode: using ASCII for conversion, iconv_open failed
Qt: Session management error: None of the authentication protocols specified are supported

And then 2X client launches...but like I said, I cannot connect.

Anybody done this on 64 bit Linux?

Thanks!
 
You can do this using your package manager. For example, on debian based systems run:

aptitude install ia32-libs

That will install the libraries needed for runnng 32-bit apps on 64-bit systems
