Murphy" Message-Id: <199704250239.WAA00346@dunquin.bu.edu> To: freebsd-emulation@freebsd.org Subject: Linux emulation for 2.1.6/stata Reply-to: rdmurphy@bu.edu Sender: owner-emulation@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I'm having trouble using the Linux version of a statistics package called stata. I've been using Release 4 of stata (the prior version) successfully under FreeBSD 2.1.0 and 2.1.6, but need to upgrade to stata Release 5. I'm waiting for the Walnut Creek 2.2.[?] CD, but would really like to get this version of stata running now. The symptoms are: 1. Installation involve copying files to /usr/local/stata 2. Starting up the program after installation generates: dunquin# /usr/local/stata/stata /usr/local/stata/stata: using incompatible library '/lib/libc.so.4' Desire minor version >= 6 and found 5 /usr/local/stata/stata: using incompatible library '/lib/libm.so.4' Desire minor version >= 6 and found 5 LINUX: 'ioctl' fd=0, typ=0x54(T), num=0x5 not implemented ___ ____ ____ ____ ____ tm /__ / ____/ / ____/ ___/ / /___/ / /___/ 5.0 Copyright 1984-1997 Statistics/Data Analysis Stata Corporation 702 University Drive East College Station, Texas 77840 USA 800-STATA-PC http://www.stata.com 409-696-4600 stata@stata.com 409-696-4601 (fax) Single-user Linux perpetual license: Serial number: LI-125042120 Licensed to: Russell D.
