Ventrilo?

[Hammer]

Hello all!

Can a Ventrilo server be installed on a B2?

Guess not...

The ventrilo binaries are compiled for a different cpu architecture, and (most likely) won't work.

The latest Ventrilo server works fine on Bubba 2. Here's a mini-howto:

1. Download the server binaries (Linux i386 - 32bit) from http://ventrilo.com/download.php
2. Extract the tar package on Bubba, to for example /opt/ventrilo-server/
3. Install qemu on Bubba, using shell: sudo apt-get install qemu (if you haven't got sudo installed, install that first, or just run apt-get as root)
4. Make any necessary changes to ventrilo.ini as required
5. You should now be able to run Ventrilo with "qemu-i386 ventrilo_srv"

If you have any further questions about the setup, just ask me .

Thank you for your late post, nnevatie!

I just bought bubba 2 from Excito's sale and really would like to run ventrilo on it. How did you get qemu-i386 to work? I installed qemu with "apt-get install qemu", but "qemu-i386 ventrilo_srv" -command ends to following error:

Code: Select all

 qemu-i386 ventrilo_srv
/lib/ld-linux.so.2: No such file or directory
Illegal instruction

Sorry, it seems my list was missing a critical piece of info...You need to have gnemul libraries installed, i.e. the runtime parts of the system being emulated - ld-linux.so.2 is part of the runtime.

You can install the required runtime as follows:

• Download the gnemul package: http://www6.frugalware.org/mirrors/linu ... 5.3.tar.gz
• Extract the tar
• Copy the gnemul directory recursively (as root/sudo) from the <extracted-tar>/usr/local/ to your Bubba 2's /usr -directory.
• You should now have /usr/gnemul/qemu-i386 containing etc, lib and usr directories. These are needed for the i386 emulation to work for most of the i386 programs.

After these steps, you should be ready to go .

Maybe I'm just a bad searcher, but I couldn't find that qnemul-package from anywhere!

Thank you for sharing your knowledge here ..And big thanks for your quick reply! My ventrilo is now up and running!

I would like to test Mumble-server too, but its demanding tons of libraries/packages which cannot be installed to bubba2 via apt-get.

That was my conclusion too: too many dependencies and I just didn't want to spent the whole day building them on my own. I've run Vent on B2 for months now and hadn't had any problems with it with 2-6 concurrent users or so.

I did excatly what nnevatie guided to do in his post http://forum.excito.net/posting.php?mod ... 89#pr14238. You need to download gnemul package at http://www6.frugalware.org/mirrors/linu ... 5.3.tar.gz

Forgot all about this, and today I checked the email associated with excito forums. Nice to see a solution!

BUT, I have now tried this on B3, but can't get it working.

Always something.

I can't get it work either with b2 2.4rc. I get it work really well with an earlier version.

/lib/ld-linux.so.2: No such file or directory
