RE: [Info-ingres] C compiler for SUSE Linux

Marty,

try

grant@jamon:~> cat /etc/SuSE-release
SUSE LINUX 10.0 (X86-64)
VERSION = 10.0

The instructions for using YaST -i should hold for most versions (at
least from 9.0 and above) and will be the least painful way of getting
software installed. If you don't have the media to hand you can point
YaST at a network/internet repository. Contact me offline if you want to
know how to set this up.

As a guess from your kernel level you have SuSE 9.1. FWIW SuSE have just
dropped support for SuSE Linux Professional 9.0.

Regards,

grant

Hi Paul et al,

Thanks dudes, very helpful...Sadly, I'm going to have to now
display my massive ignorance and doe-like naivety...

uname -r (which I normally use to get the OS Version)
responds with: 2.6.5-7.97-smp

So is that 9.2?

Whatever happened to cat /etc/motd???
