What version of gcc do you have? (gcc --version) Here's one way. Find these lines in the top-level Makefile: HOSTCC = gcc HOSTCXX = g++ Change them to match your compiler version. For example, HOSTCC = gcc-3.3 HOSTCXX = g++-3.3 I think 'update-alternatives' can be used to change the gcc link to something other than gcc-4.0. As it's been a very long day at the IDE, the details escape me and I don't seem to have any other version installed at the moment. > Another problem when it becomes necessary to re-install the NVIDIA driver. > Won't build.

The Debian 2.6.14 source configures and compiles cleanly with gcc 4.0. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
