Hello!

I posted this message to comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc over a week ago but did not
receive an answer. Can anyone help? Thanks in advance.

I want to add Kodak's "Photo-CD on the Web" software to my 2.1.5 system to
serve up PCD images. However, Kodak has repeatedly said that FreeBSD is not
(and will not) be on the ports list. (Perhaps the Core Team can get
involved to make Kodak see the light :)

They have produced a Linux version -- both a.out and ELF -- and thus I have
to use it. But the problem is that the ELF version returns a "Wrong
architecture" message, while the a.out version aborts with a "Bus error" or
"Segmentation fault" with a core dump. This happens with the "pcd2jpeg" program,
which is distributed in binary; the "pcd" program that is distributed in source
code
compiles and appears to run well.

I have installed the Linux emulator and library according to the instructions
and it
loads ok, although I have no other software to test it with. I would
appreciate any suggestions regarding this. Thank you very much.

Regards,

Jose
