First off, I am running Mandrake Linux 8.2 and am wanting to know which
version of G++ I have on my computer.  It seems as though when I go into my
software manager and look at the installed software it seems to tell me that
I have gcc-c++ version 2.96 and version 3.04-2.  I guess this just means
that I have 2 installed versions of gcc on my computer.  That's fine and all
but when I type "g++ name_of_files_to_compile" at the prompt how do I know
which version of g++ is actually being used to compile my files?  I guess
the reason I bring this up is I thought I was running the same version of
g++ as the ones in the lab but my program I turned in compiles fine on my
computer but did not compile on the ones in the Linux lab so obviously I am
not running the same version.

Also, since version 3.2 is out now I would like to install that.  However,
all I can seem to find is the .tar.gz files and I was wondering if anyone
knew of a place where I could get an .rpm or some other type of file I don't
have to go building, etc. so as to make the install process easier as I've
never installed software that I've actually had to make and build and what
not.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

John
