GR Installation on SUSE 10.1?

OK - this is driving me nuts. It seems to be a problem with Fedora Core as well, as I've seen a few poss that reference the same problem. I have disabled AppArmor (which is Suse's version of SELinux), and have installed the sun version of Java 1.5.x.
If I try running the installer, I get the following:

I have tried running the jar file using:
# java -jar ./GalleryRemote.1.5.jar

The installer runs, and completes. However in running tthe Gallery_Remote executable I get the same errors:

Any help is much appriciated - I upload hundreds of pics a month to m site, and thiis is the only way to do it in a timely way

I've had this same problem with a different program, a couple ways to fix. Two ways as follows:

Back up the .bin file to name.bin.bak

1. ) cat name.bin.bak | sed "s/export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL/#xport LD_ASSUME_KERNEL/" > name.bin

2. ) Go into your .bin file (vi file.bin) and search for:
export LD_ASSUME
You should see something along the lines of "export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5"

Now, I have not tested your installer, but this is generic fix for most of them:
change those exports in the file to #xport, so it's commented out and there are the same amount of characters.
export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5
should read
#xport LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5

Write, exit, run

Hope this helps...

I had the same problem but with another program. This thread helped me solve it. Thanks a bunch!

I also had one of those export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL in the starting script. After commenting that one all worked!
