Hello Tobias.

Ooops, sorry, memory is not good, the binary version would not run, due to 
glibc incompatibilty.

Bad memory recollection, sorry, it was at the stage where it was recommended 
to run SMAPI 1.64 and 2.00 at same time and I never got to doing this. :-(((

Hmmm..... done this already, MsgEd is not compiling bue to not being able to 
find libfidoconfig.so.0, I remeber having to use a LIBPATH= in my bash 
.profile file to correct this, seems ldconfig (?) on this system does not 
work. :-)
Just currently cannot remember what this setting was, and I cannot find the 
file I put on my WIN box.


 TE> I am absolutely positive that a Linux upgrade will not be necessary.

Now that I have givern this a bit more thought, I must agree with you.
