Hi Robert, I followed your directions, but to no avail, If I enable making of examples, even with the Release version instead of debug, I get the same compile error.
So I need a new gcc then? As far as upgrading to 2.6 kernel, that will be a big project, and has been avoided so far, as I have a stable system. I have never wiped and started fresh with a new distribution, and this Slackware version 7.0 is from 1999. On the bright side, most of the requirements of dependency packages seem to already be up to date. Looking instead at the error, it seems to be declaring a new variable, "position" so probably a gcc problem, as I don't see how the kernel version would affect this error message. I'll go back and look into compiling a new gcc, the last time I tried, it took a few days.
