[newbie] Help Compiling C++ with Emacs
Alright this may be a little off topic for the list, but i'm sure some of you use Emacs and might be able to help me out. I've installed emacs on both, my Mac and for my Windows system, which i intend to use for c++. I have Emacs on both machines working fine but when i go to compile one of my c++ programs, on either, i get an error back in the compilation window saying g++ is not a command. This is the error exactly: g++ -o total sum1.cpp /bin/bash: line 1: g++: command not found Compilation exited abnormally with code 127 at Fri Feb 25 18:45:40 Now i understand Emacs is the text editor and so it seem obvious that i don't have the G++ compiler installed. This is my deduction at least. But, because i'm not totaly sure i figured i would bother you guys on how i would go about fixing this problem without having to fumble around on the internet looking for a solution. If a simple download is all that's needed just send me a link. I've looked myself, although not too hard, and i couldn't find anything worthy of what i thought i was looking for.

[newbie] Sound Driver Error
I've just install Mandrake 10.1 and i've been receiving an error message saying there is a problem with my sound card/driver. I've seen this error message twice, once when trying to start KsCD application and once when starting linux. I've not been able to make the error reappear and have not seen it appear at any other time. >From memory the error simply states there is a problem with my sound card/driver, and that the directory /dev/dsp cannot be found. I've tried creating this folder within /dev and it says access is denied. Also, when trying to start Audacity i am prompted with the error message: There was an error initializing the audio i/o layer. You will not be able to play or record audio. Error: Host error Obviously i cannot hear music CDs, or any sounds for that matter, and cannot begin to realize what the problem is. That's where you come in. For reference my sound card is described as nForce2 Audio Codec Interface in HardDrake, with the driver listed as snd-intel8x0. ~ Ayn
