Problem with g++
by Sankha Subhra Som 10 Feb '03

10 Feb '03

I have this peculiar problem with g++ under linux. This is a small piece of code that i wrote #include<iostream.h> main() { cout << "blahblah"; } When i try to compile it, i get the following warning In file included from /usr/include/c++/3.2/backward/iostream.h:31, from first.cpp:1: /usr/include/c++/3.2/backward/backward_warning.h:32:2: warning: #warning This file includes at least one deprecated or antiquated header. Please consider using one of the 32 headers found in section 17.4.1.2 of the C++ standard. Examples include substituting the <X> header for the <X.h> header for C++ includes, or <sstream> instead of the deprecated header <strstream.h>. To disable this warning use -Wno-deprecated. To get a warning free compile i commented out the line #include backward_warning from iostream.h When i try to run the executable the shell does a silent return, without printing the blahblah as it is supposed to. I redirected the output to a file, and it contained blahblah. I dont think the problem is with g++, but i cant exactly put my finger on it. Any pointers would be gratefully acknowledged Sankha -- SANKHA SUBHRA SOM ATC - BIOINFORMATICS TCS KLK BUILDING.

*Older* versions of Linux...
by Anu Mathew 10 Feb '03

10 Feb '03

Hi folks, Are there users of RH5.0 out there? I am asking this, as I have some systems running RH5.0 (2.0.36) since ages. Of course, I had upgraded sendmail,apache, PHP etc over these years on these boxes, and they are serving me well since their inception. IOW, *they do what they are supposed to do*, leaving nothing much to whine about. They mostly function as mailservers. I dont blame entirely the retro-ness(?) on my laziness, but mostly on the principle "Dont fix it if it is not broken." I saw nothing broke, also my requirement is being met by these machines. However, any new system I build goes with "somewhat decently" recent versions of Linux [ie, RH7.0 (2.2.16-22) or 7.2, even though RH 8.0 is the current cool and hype thing.] I would like to know how you ladies and gentlemen out here treat the versions (if you guys have any) that power my said horses. I suppose one prime plus point of Linux is that it likes older hardware as well. How do we treat the older kernels? Tear 'em down? Thanks for your time and patience in advance, Anu Mathew

If not then we will > have to opt for Gnome 2. Gnome 2 was very buggy and unstable. suggest you stick to the standard knoppix distro. Changing packages and distributing the cd without thorough testing that too to newbies would be a horrible thing to do. rgds jtdsouza(a)softhome.net

FREEDUC CD : excellent content, but could not get mouse working
by jitendra 09 Feb '03

09 Feb '03

I have the freeduc 1.1 CD which is based on knoppix 3.1Beta created by www.ofset.org . I can boot from the CD. I can access programs with keyboard. However it does not enable my mouse. On the same computers, the knoppix CD works very fine. The collection of educational programs on freeduc CD is REALLY excellent. Can some crack the problem. Dr Siva at OIIT has run the same CD on hois laptop and desktop without any problems and has good opinion of it. If we can confidently run it on ususal machines ( mine are usual ones) , it will be 'killer' ( please suggest a better pro-peace word in these days of war mongering) application for free software.
