What do "file /home/balloon/bin/balloon-audio-off" and "ldd /home/balloon/bin/balloon-audio-off" and "uname -a" say? I suspect your issue is that you're trying to run an i386 binary on an amd64 machine in 64bit mode and that won't work unless you're running it in a chroot AIUI.
Jonathan: Thanks, I think you may suspect correct:
balloon@capirossi:~/bin$ file balloon-audio-off balloon-audio-off: setuid setgid ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.0.30, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), not stripped balloon@capirossi:~/bin$ ldd balloon-audio-off /usr/bin/ldd: line 1: /lib/ld-linux.so.2: No such file or directory ldd: /lib/ld-linux.so.2 exited with unknown exit code (127) balloon@capirossi:~/bin$ uname -a Linux capirossi 2.6.16-2-amd64-k8 #2 Fri Jun 2 17:23:35 UTC 2006 x86_64 GNU/Linux balloon@capirossi:~/bin$
Many many thanks. I'll have a look about for docs on this chroot AIUI you speak of. And contact the author in case there is something he can do with the compilation.
Grateful, Jenny
