Hello all I just purchased Mandrake Linux 8.2 and ran into a very annoying error. After a brand new installation of the standard version, I run into a compile problem. I created a simple printf program to print some words onto the screen but it gave me an error concerning cpp0. It says it cannot exec cpp0 because it does not exist. I found the cpp0 file and made a link to it in a directory already in the path but this opened up a whole other can of worms. Has anyone run into this? Please let me know as I''m really looking forward to getting back into Linux programming. g00gl3

Please don''t take offense but did you include the developement package? If so, give KDevelope a try and see if it works.

No offense taken. I did include the Development package. Even reinstalled all the gcc packages via rpm, still no luck.

I didn''t try using the KDevelop yet as I still enjoy pulling out Emacs and using the console to compile my programs. I''m a big fan of Emacs and the console to do my programs as opposed to IDE''s. Guess I''m stuck to the old days of UNIX.

Thanks for the suggestion though.
