Does mandrake/mageia have anything for 32-bit compatibility. I need them to run the game Second Life. Thanks in advance!

When you add the online repositories, the Core 32bit repos are added on x86_64 installs by default. I don't know what libs second life needs exactly though.

You are running the Second Life Viewer on a x86_64 platform. The
most common problems when launching the Viewer (particularly
'bin/do-not-directly-run-secondlife-bin: not found' and 'error while
loading shared libraries') may be solved by installing your Linux
distribution's 32-bit compatibility packages.
For example, on Ubuntu and other Debian-based Linuxes you might run:
$ sudo apt-get install ia32-libs ia32-libs-gtk ia32-libs-kde ia32-libs-sdl

Code: Select all
# urpmf libSDL-1.2.so.0
lib64SDL1.2_0:/usr/lib64/libSDL-1.2.so.0
lib64SDL1.2_0:/usr/lib64/libSDL-1.2.so.0.11.3
libSDL1.2_0:/usr/lib/libSDL-1.2.so.0                                                                                                   
libSDL1.2_0:/usr/lib/libSDL-1.2.so.0.11.3

Install the package libSDL1.2_0 for the 32 bit version

urpmf is a useful tool. See 'man urpmf' for details

I have older viewers that work with Mageia, but the newest one just flashes on the screen then disappears. I tried
to run an older version, but SL won't let me. I'm trying to figure out how I might solve my dilemma.

Run it in a terminal and post the output here.
