Installed them; and pulled my hair out finding that one of the       executables was a 32 bit elf. Installed Alien's multilib packages       (don't remember which one contains the magic) and all has been good since.              I do recall the IP was a bit touchy - socket://192.etc works here.              I read recently the .deb had 64 bit arch covered. Dunno for sure.              Here's my files:              ls -A Printer/       brscan-skey-0.2.4-1.x86_64.rpm mfcj4510dwcupswrapper-3.0.1-1.i386.rpm       brscan-skey-0.3.1-2.x86_64.rpm mfcj4510dwlpr-3.0.1-1.i386.rpm       brscan4-0.4.11-1.x86_64.rpm uninstaller_MFCJ4510DW       brscan4-0.4.8-1.x86_64.rpm uninstaller_brscan-skey       linux-brprinter-installer-2.2.1-1 uninstaller_brscan4              Rinaldi              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
