[maemo-developers] Need Help With Xephyr

[From: Dr. Nicholas Shaw]

Thanks, Antonio, tried that as well.   The results were:

 

Dpkg: error processing xserver-xephyr_1.4.2-10_arm.deb (--install): package architecture (arm) does not match system (i386)

Errors were encountered while processing: xserver-xephyr_1.4.2-10_arm.deb

 

I also tried _i386.deb with the same result.   BTW, I’m running Debian 4R6 with the SMP 2.6.18-6-686 kernel.

Regards,

 

Nick.

Hi,
If you want to install a deb file you have to run 
dpkg -i file.deb

Ok, I've run hello world (yay).  I'm following the install instructions for
the rest, e.g. Xephyr.  I've run apt-get install
./xserver-xephyr_1.4.2-10_arm.deb and get the following:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
W: Couldn't stat source package list http://scratchbox.org ./ Packages
(/var/lib/apt/lists/scratchbox.org_debian_._Packages) - stat (2 No such file
or directory)
W: Couldn't stat source package list http://debian.lcs.mit.edu sid/main
Packages
(/var/lib/apt/lists/debian.lcs.mit.edu_debianian_dists_sid_main_binary-i386_
Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)
W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems (tried this
without success)
E: Couldn't find package.

I first tried apt-get install xserver-xephyr outside scratchbox without
success.

Any suggestions would be helpful. In advance - THANKS!

Nick.
