Lazarus + Hardy + GLScene - Error: "Can't Find libc&quo
lazarus / 1-Linux

Howdy fine folks,

I'm trying to get GLScene working with Lazarus, but it's a struggle.
 I got Lazarus+FreePascal2.2 working on Ubuntu Hardy, using the
repositories!

Now, I've tried both the GLScene1.0.0.2 download, and the SVN, but
both give the same error:

componenteditors.pas(89,2) Fatal: Can't find unit libc used by
GLCrossPlatform

How is this resolved?  Is there a dependency missing?

libc is a i386-linux unit only. I don't know if you are using 32 bits
or 64 bits linux.

Nevertheless, AFAIK at least two glscene for lazarus maintainers use
64 bits CPUs.

Maybe you can contact them on #glcene at irc.freenode.net.

GLScene doesn't work on 64bit CPUs due to assempler being used and
some other issues (mainly manpower and motivation).

Yes I am using a 64bit machine.

Is there any way to run Lazarus IDE inside a 32 bit emulator?

I am also getting the error
componenteditors.pas(89,2) Fatal: Can't find unit libc used by
GLCrossPlatform
under Linux.

Is there a solution to this problem? I'll try the IRC channel next,
but I need to
learn how to use it first.

Thanks
