Dear all,
thank you for your answer. I followed your instructions but (I think) the program doesn't install. Here is the script:

adiagne@IPK7:~$ cd /home/adiagne
adiagne@IPK7:~$ chmod 755 ELAN_30_linux_install.bin
adiagne@IPK7:~$ sudo ./ELAN_30_linux_install.bin

Can you help?

The problem is related to the fact that the ubuntu kernel and libraries seem to be "to new" towards the installer. There is a temporary workaround to fix this:

sed -i "s/export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL/#xport LD_ASSUME_KERNEL/" ELAN_30_linux_install.bin

Afterwards, the installation should succeed. However the same issue seems to appear in the JMF library. I'll try to have a closer look at it.

best regards,
Dieter

Good news: we found a solution to this problem.

before running the installer do this (on the command line):
sed -i "s/export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL/#xport LD_ASSUME_KERNEL/" ELAN_30_linux_install.bin

Now run the installer.

After the installation, go to the directory where elan is installed and execute the following command:
sed -i "s/export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL/#export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL/" ELAN_3.0

Now you should be able to run elan. (We have tested this on ubuntu 6.10) Can you let us know whether this solves your problem?

Best regards,
Dieter

Hi, I had the same problem on Ubuntu 7.04. I applied Dieter's suggestion from above, and that did the trick: installation worked and running Elan works as well. Would've been nice if there was a 'known issues'-link on the downloads-page and info like this would be avaiable there. Thanks anyway for solving this. Bas.

For the sake of completeness: this issue has been fixed in the latest release of ELAN (3.1.0)
