The kernel is written in C, not C++, so that's irrelevant. > I hope somebody can help me on this one. Somehow your gcc installation has gotten messed up. Perhaps you compiled gcc on your own and installed it in /usr/local/bin? If so, you might want to try $ PATH=/usr/bin:$PATH ./configure # or other command which needs g++ to get the default c++ compiler. If that doesn't help, the only thing I could think of is to re-install gcc. Good luck, Chris
