Subject: 32 binaries questions
Date: Wed, 15 Feb 2006 03:13:33 +0200
Hi,

I got old nice game Railroad Tycoon 2  and after installing made entry in 
Kmenu with this command:
linux32 /usr/local/games/RT2/rt2
As you see its installed in /usr/local/games bypassing portage. Seems 
everything works fine, sound and graphics, however, is it right way to launch 
32 binary on x86_64? I'm asking this because looks like amaroK's OSD popup 
locks graphics in game, no way to exit it cleanly, root -> kill pid doesnt 
work, just fuser -k did the trick but for my understanding this isnt good way 
to stop programs running.
Now i'll dig other 32 binaries' ebuilds to see what happens there.
Any tips welcome.
