What version of glibc from redhat are you looking at? I'm not sure if this will work (I've never tried it nor heard of anyone trying to get glibc from redhat working under mandrake). I don't think a straight source compile would be too difficult, but you have to make sure you apply the appropriate patches first. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED], OpenPGP key available on www.keyserver.net // Danen Consulting Services www.danen.net, www.freezer-burn.org // MandrakeSoft, Inc. www.linux-mandrake.com 1024D/FE6F2AFD 88D8 0D23 8D4B 3407 5BD7 66F9 2043 D0E5 FE6F 2AFD Current Linux uptime: 2 days 5 hours 47 minutes.
