I went to install some games I had on my old box, railroad tycoon and SOF to be precise (Civilization was next). In both cases I got the following error message.

This installation doesn't support glibc-2.1 on x86_64

Are the few decent linux based games I have toast, or can I salvage this mess?

Use linux32, e.g. linux32 ./install.sh

Thanks.. it worked with the SOF and Railroad tycoon. All I can say is neat. That solved that problem and is a solution I will remember. When I tried it with civilization CTP it installed but running civ kills my X86 and I'm back to having to login again. Interesting no?

To see what linux32 does, compare linux32 uname -a and uname -a

Works fine with CTP 1.2 (?) and SUSE Linux 9.1 for me,

sounds like our setups are about identical. I guess I'll do a trace on it to track whats happening.
