- I have several questions.
-
- First, my vi is not working. I get the following error message.
- "This termcap entry lacks the :up=: capability"
- I imagine this is just an initializtion problem. What do I need to change?
-
- Second, I finished the GCC install script and it told me to do
- a make dep with the kernel Makefile. What does make dep mean? Will
- this recompile the kernel for me? How do I implement the patches in this?
-
-
- Next, what are the limitations on filename lengths and is there a way
- to change it????
-
- Finally, after installing GCC I have all these libraries laying
- around. Which ones do I need? It seems that /lib and /usr/lib are the
- same. What is the deal??
- Also, do I also have g++ now??? There is a g++-include directory.
-
-
- thanx in advance
