hello,
Did anyone get acrobat7 running on x86_4 machine?
In my case it looks like this:
[~]$ /usr/local/Adobe/Acrobat7.0/bin/acroread /usr/local/Adobe/Acrobat7.0/Reader/intellinux/bin/acroread: error while loading shared libraries: libXext.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory [~]$ locate libXext.so.6 /usr/X11R6/lib64/libXext.so.6.4 /usr/X11R6/lib64/libXext.so.6 [~]$
then I look here
[~]$ cat /etc/ld.so.conf include ld.so.conf.d/*.conf
[~]$ ls /etc/ld.so.conf.d/ qt-x86_64.conf xorg-x11-x86_64.conf [~]$ cat /etc/ld.so.conf.d/xorg-x11-x86_64.conf /usr/X11R6/lib64 [~]$
so what is wrong?

from my experience it was SELINUX not allowing it to run. i can't remember how you work around it other than disabling SELINUX. i'm sure someone here can tell you how.
hope that helps.

actually it doesnt. The SElinux is disabled right after fresh FC4 install, thus it hardly could be a problem here.
any suggestions?

Acrobat reader is a 32-bit program (because Adobe only compiles it that way). The libraries you have installed are 64-bit and cannot be used with Acrobat. You need to install the 32-bit libraries as well.

do you suggest installing xorg-x11-libs-*i386.rpm on that computer? What about xorg-x11-libs-*x86_64.rpm already installed there? Can they coexist?

[~]$ sudo rpm -ivh xorg-x11-libs-6.8.2-37.FC4.49.2.i386.rpm Password: error: Failed dependencies: libGL.so.1 is needed by xorg-x11-libs-6.8.2-37.FC4.49.2.i386 libexpat.so.0 is needed by xorg-x11-libs-6.8.2-37.FC4.49.2.i386 libfontconfig.so.1 is needed by xorg-x11-libs-6.8.2-37.FC4.49.2.i386 libfreetype.so.6 is needed by xorg-x11-libs-6.8.2-37.FC4.49.2.i386
for some reason I have a feeling that it will pull the entire xorg*i386 to my machine. Is this really the only method? I better stick with xpdf then.

Use yum to install it, do not just install an RPM. It will not put the entire xorg i386 on your computer. It will resolve the dependencies and get the 32-bit libs you need out of the x86_64 repositories. 32-bit libraries can be installed along side the 64-bit libraries. There is an option when installing to install 32-bit libraries as well. I have always used that, so I do not know the exact way to do it post install (ie, which packages you need). Try this and see if it works:
yum install xorg-x11-libs.i386

Hello,
If you are still having problem with Acroread 7, I would suggest you the following link (it worked, in my case):

it did, sort of... Actually it asked for gtk2-i386 and the whole train of dependencies. Anyway seems like yum managed to find them all. Now it is working. Thank you.
