Hello Dirk, thank you for your chick answer. I tried another file and there it works. so i removed all files which were created during of the compilation of add.c in windows and so i could compile it under ubuntu too. During the windows compilation there is some *.o file which is created during the compilation, if i delete it and try the compilation under ubuntu everything works fine, don't know why?
