The collected works of jeffe23

As a former SGI employee (1989 - 1999) I have an Octane running Irix64 6.5 01221553 IP30 and just installed the nekochan_firefox3 including all the dependencies. When I try to execute firefox3 I get these errors:

rld: Error: unresolvable symbol in /usr/nekoware/lib/libglib-2.so.1: strlcpy
rld: Error: unresolvable symbol in /usr/nekoware/lib/libglib-2.so.1: strlcat
rld: Error: unresolvable symbol in /usr/nekoware/lib/firefox-3.0.19/libxpcom_core.so: mbrtowc
rld: Error: unresolvable symbol in /usr/nekoware/lib/firefox-3.0.19/libxpcom_core.so: wcrtomb
rld: Error: unresolvable symbol in /usr/nekoware/lib/firefox-3.0.19/libnspr4.so: freeaddrinfo
rld: Fatal Error: This executable has unresolvable sysmbols

Any help would be appreciated in tracking this down.

Thanks,
Jeff

Thanks, I suspected as much. This is a circa 1997 Octane prototype that my boss said to keep. I only have software disks up to 6.5.5 when I left. The Octane warns on boot "warning prototype heart, chip revision c" so I'm not sure if it would be supported going forward. It has to 195 MHz R10000 processors and 512 Mbytes main memory. Maybe its worth the $50 on ebay for a newer Irix release to find out. The Netscape browser shipped in 6.5.5 is basically worthless without turning off images and java.

Thanks a lot for the tips. I had a completely dead O2. After setting the jumper next to the Dallas chip it powered up but left me with a flashing yellow light. Looking at the hardware guide this means memory errors. It turned out that two of the DIMMs were getting an error. After a few tries swapping I got it to give me a green light . The drive was trashed so I am installing Irix 6.5.29 from scratch to a new disk (old HP 73.4 Gbyte) I had lying around. I inherited this machine from a friend along with the SGI LCD flat panel so I am a happy camper.
