compiling rdesktop?

Moin,

we shutdown our citrix server soon so I have to give rdesktop to our
remaining IRIX users.

To run configure and to compile was no problem, but it's not possible to
start the binary:

renner@centaurus:/home/renner/rdesktop-1.3.1 $ ./rdesktop
bash: ./rdesktop: Bad request code

renner@centaurus:/home/renner/rdesktop-1.3.1 $ strace rdesktop
execve("/home/renner/rdesktop-1.3.1/rdesktop", ["rdesktop"], [/* 39 vars
*/]) = -1 EBADRQC (Bad request code)
syssgi(0x5c /* SGI_??? */, 0x1, 0x2f, 0x7fff24fc, 0, 0x7fff2598) = 0
xstat(2, "/usr/lib/locale/C/LC_MESSAGES/uxsyserr", 0x7fff24fc) = -1
ENOENT (No such file or directory)
xstat(2, "/usr/lib/locale/C/Xopen/LC_MESSAGES/uxsyserr", 0x7fff24fc) =
-1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
xstat(2, "/usr/lib/locale/C/LC_MESSAGES/uxsyserr.cat", 0x7fff24fc) = -1
ENOENT (No such file or directory)
write(2, "strace: exec", 12strace: exec) = 12
write(2, ": ", 2: ) = 2
write(2, "Bad request code", 16Bad request code) = 16
write(2, "\n", 1
) = 1
_exit(1)

renner@centaurus:/home/renner/rdesktop-1.3.1 $ file rdesktop
rdesktop: ELF N32 MSB mips-4 dynamic executable (not stripped)
MIPS - version 1

What can be wrong?

your box is either missing the X libs or does not have them in the lib
path. Have you tried installing rdesktop from the tardist package? I think
I saw it on [url]www.nekochan.net[/url] in his downloads section.

Maybe your system can't run mips4 code?

I had no trouble compiling and running it on IRIX 6.2
and the binary should run everywhere (> R4k):

[url]ftp://diis.unizar.es/pub/unix/comm/rdesktop-1.3.1-mips-irix6.tgz[/url]

(untar it from /; it will install files on /usr/local only)

Thanks for the link, but I get a 'connection refused'
Can you find the tar ball on your machine? It would be very kind if you
would mail it to me.

Thanks

Moin,

I will check for the libraries, thanks.
I found only the version 1.2 at nekochan.net. I tried this version
before, but I had some problems with the keyboard support.

Let my know it if works otherwise i can move into the dumpster :)
