Re: GHCi and Windows 98
Hi Steven, If you are just getting started, and GHC is giving you no luck, try Hugs (in particular WinHugs) which does work on Win98. http://www.haskell.org/hugs/ Thanks Neil On 12/7/06, "Steven Tinsley" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Good day to you.

Thanks, this is fixed, I think: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/976 http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/970 is that the same problem? -- Don ___ Glasgow-haskell-bugs mailing list Glasgow-haskell-bugs@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-bugs
GHCi and Windows 98
Good day to you. I installed GHC 6.6 on a Windows 98 SE system recently having decided to try to learn this language. Unfortunetley, GHCi causes an "This program has performed an illegal operation" error at startup and is shut down. This happens just after "Loading base packagelinkingdone" is shown. Windows produces this error message: [code] GHC caused an invalid page fault in module GHC.EXE at 0167:00c82e26. Registers: EAX=0078 CS=0167 EIP=00c82e26 EFLGS=00010297 EBX=00d963c8 SS=016f ESP=010cdd50 EBP=01c43f3c ECX=0007 DS=016f ESI=01be57e8 FS=1617 EDX= ES=016f EDI=01be57f4 GS= Bytes at CS:EIP: 66 83 3c 50 00 74 19 ff 45 00 83 ef 08 b8 18 2e Stack dump: 0078 0200 0001 00d0fe5c 0002 00cddbb6 0001 00c34b9c 00408442 [/code] Just thought you'd like to know.
