I'm running Mandrake 7.02 on my Dell XPS 133c. I installed the minimal 
amount of packages that Mandrake will let you then I installed more packages 
individually as I needed them I though that I installed all of the necessary 
gcc packages to do some compiling of software. I've compiled the program 
before on the same computer when I installed the full Mandrake 7.02 
distribution, but when I run ./configure on this new setup I get the 
following error:
configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C++ compiler cannot 
create executables.

I thought that I had installed all of the libraries needed. I even installed 
the kernel-headers. I'm at a lost at what could be the problem so I thought 
that maybe one of you experts could give me a clue to what's wrong.
I also had problems with the new XFree86 4.0 distributin. When I installed 
it everything worked fine but I kept getting rpm errors when I tried to 
install software that said I was missing libXpm.so.4 file, but when I 
checked the /usr/X11R6/lib directory the link/files were there. And the new 
netscape would run but the pages would become blank if anything was moved 
over it and moved away. I think netscape was having trouble finding the 
files also. So I reverted back to the distributions rpm of Xfree86 and 
everything works fine again.
I sure would appreciate any help with these matters.
Thanx,
SA
