Updating gcc, et all
Hi folks, It seems, at least from a response on the kde-linux list I'm on, that gcc 2.95, which eW31 has, does not contain optimization code for athlon. This is claimed to be the cause of my system architecture being i686 despite checking Athlon in the kernel make xconfig (a post on the Caldera list that I didn't cross-post here). So the task at hand now is to upgrade gcc to a version that supports athlon optimizations. It appears that the SxS doesn't have anything listed for updating gcc. So before I download the latest 3.01 gcc, I'm looking for caveats from the bright folks on this list. Should I use 3.01, or another version (or just use the one i have and live with i686 optimizations)? What, other than gcc, should get updated in the process? Should I update glibc, too? As always, your assistance is greatly appreciated, Tim ___ http://linux.nf -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives, Subscribe, Unsubscribe, Digest, Etc ->http://linux.nf/mailman/listinfo/linux-users

hey Dennis- just wanted to drop a note and check up on you. How is life treating you? Did you get some good sailing in this year? How has writing been lately? I'm sure that there has been plenty going on to keep you hoppin'. How do you get to choose what you write about? Is is your choice or are assignments handed to you from someone above? Well, Julie, Rachel (15 mo) and I leave for camping this Sunday. We'll attempt what I am certain will be an exciting and painful 4 days of tent camping. This is kind of a trial run for the little chickie. We need to see how she likes camping, and hopefully start the hopefully short process of getting her used to it. It IS in the long-term plans, and since Rachel is as well, she'd better adapt ;) Well, I look forward to hearing from you soon.

2.96 is a bastard child of RedHat's... it never offically existed. It was a
snapshot of the 3.x development tree that they chose to ship. avoid it at all
costs...
you really should make the move to 2.95.3... it has some fixes that will be
necessary should you later choose to use later versions of other things

I've got a buddy who swears by it (and Plextor), but he's a winders user. The latest versions of xcdroast, gcombust, and koncd seem to support it.

MS Error message Haikus
Subject: FW: Microsloth Error Message Haikus In Japan, they have replaced the impersonal and unhelpful Microsoft Error messages with Haiku poetry messages. Haiku poetry has strict construction rules. Each poem has only three lines, 17 syllables: five syllables in the first line, seven in the second, five in the third. Haikus are used to communicate a timeless message often achieving a wistful, yearning and powerful insight through extreme brevity - the essence of Zen: Your file was so big. It might be very useful. But now it is gone. The Web site you seek Cannot be located, but Countless more exist. Chaos reigns within. Reflect, repent, and reboot. Order shall return. Program aborting: Close all that you have worked on. You ask far too much. Windows NT crashed. I am the Blue Screen of Death. No one hears your screams. Yesterday it worked. Today it is not working. Windows is like that. First snow, then silence. This thousand-dollar screen dies So beautifully.

Re: M$ gets a free 'get out of jail card' Re: New SxS ?
ennis I agree with you, but I think, & my opinion only, that a break up of M$ would do more harm to Unix/Linux. That Apps-DEV sw being free from the OS, would allow for the migration of apps to Unix/Linux OS's. Yes Linux would boom as Winders people came over to use M$ apps that would work & run the same as Winders. The problem would be the quality of the sw would ruin Linux/Unix. The winders OS would evently die just like OS2. cheers -- Rick Sivernell Dallas, Texas 75287 972 306-2296 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Caldera Open Linux eWorkStation 3.1 Registered Linux User .~. / v \ /( _ )\ ^ ^ In Linux we trust! ___ http://linux.nf -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives, Subscribe, Unsubscribe, Digest, Etc ->http://linux.nf/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
