Just upgraded.
There only seems to be one version of gcc available in the repositories.
apt-cache show gcc-4.2 tells me I have "Version: 4.2.3-2ubuntu7"
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 4.2.4 (Ubuntu 4.2.4-1ubuntu3)
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /proc/version
Linux version 2.6.24-21-generic ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version 4.2.3 (Ubuntu
4.2.3-2ubuntu7))
When I run vmware-config.pl I get the following warning message:
Your kernel was built with "gcc" version "4.2.3", while you are trying to use
"/usr/bin/gcc" version "4.2.4".
What version am I running? Should I care? vmware-config.pl gives dire warnings
about impending crashes, although I've found two posts on the net suggesting
that I can bypass the warning.
Failing that, is it a reasonable workaround to restart with an older kernel?
thanks,
David.
