(Not just give me the current source?) I think that I'm running 2.1 or something, and I would like to have everything upgraded to 2.2 (or whatever is the current stable release.) I just tried to build 'hylafax' and it griped that the g++ libraries weren't installed, or weren't in a standard place... Well, they are in /usr/lib/libg++.a... Ain't that the standard place? :-) I assume, that it is looking for something that has changed since the 2.1 (or whatever version I have) release, and the message is just coming up wrong... If I reinstall, do I run a chance of losing everything? how much work is it to do it again... Last time I loaded everything across the network (28K modem) and it took hours and hours to complete Thanks in advance for the info.... -Chert -- Chert Pellett - chert@dungeon.cirr.com || chert@dungeon.lonestar.org A layman knows he has to kick it.
