Kevin, I just installed SuSE 11 on my laptop (dual-boot with Vista). The install worked fine, but when I attempt to compile a program (c++ -g -c <filename>.cpp) but I am getting errors trying to compile. For whatever reason, the compiler is unable to find the .h files. I can find the files no problem. I have them in my path, but the compiler is still bombing. Any ideas? Joe |
