Thanks for the responses. I did find after posting my question that I was using the wrong linker, switching to g++ helped. But I did have to move some files from /usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.0.2/32 one level up. And also copy crt?.o from /usr/lib to /usr/lib64 to get my file to link correctly. Even with the "-m32" flag, the system kept looking in the "64" directories for libraries and the "crt?.o" files. The better thing to do seems to be to set up different boot environments. _______________________________________________ help-gplusplus mailing list help-gplusplus@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gplusplus
