The primary reason for this is to run XQuake. I followed all available literature and manuals on the subject and installed the library port as well as recompiled the kernel for "options COMPAT_LINUX" and with no avail. Here is some required info. > uname -v FreeBSD 2.1.5-RELEASE #0: Tue Oct 15 02:23:34 CDT 1996 > ls /compat/linux/lib ld-linux.so.1 libXaw.so.6 libcurses.so.1.0.0 ld-linux.so.1.7.3 libXaw.so.6.0 libdl.so.1.7.3 ld.so libXpm.so.4 libgr.so.1 libX11.so.3 libXpm.so.4.3 libgr.so.1.3 libX11.so.3.1.0 libXt.so.3 libm.so.4 libX11.so.6 libXt.so.3.1.0 libm.so.4.5.26 libX11.so.6.0 libXt.so.6 libm.so.5.0.0 libXIE.so.6 libXt.so.6.0 libtermcap.so.2.0.0 libXIE.so.6.0 libc.so.4 libvga.so.1 libXaw.so.3 libc.so.4.5.26 libvga.so.1.2.0 libXaw.so.3.1.0 libc.so.5.0.9 > cat /etc/sysconfig | grep linux linux=YES > modstat Type Id Off Loadaddr Size Info Rev Module Name EXEC 0 3 f091d000 0018 f0922000 1 linux_emulator > xquake /home/kane/xquake: Exec format error. Wrong Architecture. If you have any info available on my problem please respond. Am I missing ELF compatibility. Is it because of these lines in my kernal precompile config? machine "i386" cpu "I586_CPU" or am I just not going to be able to run it. Knowing FreeBSD there should be a way. Thanx
