I downloaded and untarred Skype. Can't run it here (Ubuntu 8.04, 2.6.26.5)
but I can in a VM (Ubuntu 8.10, 2.6.24.7). Here I get:
eben@pc:/misc/torrent/skype-2.0.0.72$ ./skype
bash: ./skype: cannot execute binary file
eben@pc:/misc/torrent/skype-2.0.0.72$ file ./skype
./skype: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), for
GNU/Linux 2.4.1, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped
eben@pc:/misc/torrent/skype-2.0.0.72$ ldd ./skype
not a dynamic executable
I don't think the distro matters much, since I have different
custom-compiled kernels in each location. Any idea why this won't work?
How do I check if I can execute 32-bit programs?
