Does'nt it need the > newer version of libm.so in order to work correctly. First of all, assume that I don't know much of what I'm talking about :). When I upgraded libc to 5.4.44, libm 5.0.9 came along with it. So when I reverted to 5.4.33 (which Steve Byrne says is just fine, BTW), I also had to revert to libm 5.0.6. In /lib there were both 5.0.9 and 5.0.6; libm.so.5 was a symbolic link pointing to 5.0.9. I just relinked it to 5.0.6, renamed 5.0.9 to xlibm509 or something, and reran ldconfig. And it all started to work again! > > If talk won't work with libm.so.5.0.9 then essentially I can > never upgrade my libm if I want to continue using talk.

I'm sure that if you pull down the sources and recompile talk, it will work.

Difficulty installing kaffe
Hi. I'm not sure if this is the appropriate list, but maybe someone here can help. I have just gone through the Kaffe install, but every time I try anything (eg javac HelloWorldApp.java), I get: [rhill@lappie test]$ javac HelloWorldApp.java java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: initializeSystemClass [rhill@lappie test]$ I copied classes.zip from my jdk 1.1.5 installation.
