I’ve successfully used the GUI to label a CD as a test. copy the directory 'LightScribe Template Labeler' from the programs (x86) folder of this windows 7 PC to an USB stick.

Update: I’ve since spotted that dpkg has a –force-architecture option, this may avoid the need for converting the lightscribe package. install LightScribe Template Labeler on a Windows 7 machine (offices often have such PCs - or a non-updated PC of a friend). lightscribe_1.10.19.1-2_all.debĪnd it seems to work (though I have no Lightscribe media to test with yet!): Then it’s the usual installation procedure of: $ fakeroot alien lightscribe-1.10.19.1.tgz Then I converted the two tar files straight back into.

deb and the Lacie 4L package (which has a nice GUI) as the x586 RPM. Then I downloaded the Lightscribe System Software as a 32-bit.

So, to help others, this is the hack that I did to install it successfully.įirst I had previously installed the 32-bit compatibility libraries for AMD64 thus: Problem is that I’m running a 64-bit version of KUbuntu Linux (as it’ll have 8GB RAM once the final sticks arrive) and the closed source Lightscribe software is 32-bit only and won’t install without a bit of prodding. I have a new AMD64 compatible system (an Intel quad core box) which comes with an ASUS DRW-1814BLT Lightscribe DVD burner. Caveat: Whilst the below works for me for those particular applications you may find that other 32-bit only applications require a fuller 32-bit environment, which you can get using a separate install of a 32-bit Ubuntu (often called a “ chrooted environment”) – please see the corresponding Ubuntu Wiki page for more information.
