View Full Version : It's not often I get stuck...

We have a number of Linux gurus here, so this one's for you.

The server at the University is a 64 bit system, likely an intel Itanium system. I can ssh into the system, which gives me the following warning;


** Unknown Architecture: ix86.64-unknown-linux

However, I'm able to access files and such regardless of the error. Now, here's the problem. I'm trying to use cvs (because it's built into eclipse, handy) but it refuses to do anything, giving me this error each time. Putting it into google is completely useless.

I'm guessing I could probably install a package that will allow the system I'm using to recognise the architecture, but I'm still stuck for this one.

I'm using Fedora 9 (has to be Fedora 9, telling me to switch distros will not help) in a VMWare virtual machine. Everything apart from this works fine.

Any ideas, go nuts guys.

wow, I solved it! My .cshrc file, which is about 3 years old now, was pointing to an old configuration file for one of the older servers. I deleted the reference and now everything works.

Locked.
