If so, how did you install the rpm? Don't have any experience with those cards, but I can say how to install a linux rpm: - ensure you have archivers/rpm2cpio installed (it is already installed if you have installed any linux_base port); - copy dist.rpm to any empty directory and run a command: $ rpm2cpio < dist.rpm | cpio -id - brandelf all binary files (not libraries!): $ brandelf -t Linux binary_file; - as root do: # find * -type d -exec mkdir "/compat/linux/{}" # find * ! -type d | cpio -pm -R root:wheel /compat/linux If any non-standard directories for linux libraries are created then run # /compat/linux/sbin/ldconfig -r /compat/linux If everything goes well, you may add a pkg-plist and submit a new port. ;-) > And which emulation did you use? Current default (read: recommended and supported by emulation@) linux base port is linux_base-fc4.
