Currently i'm using gcc 4.1.2. Now i wanted to install ATLAS (for linear algebra), and its README file recommended to use either gcc 3 or gcc 4.2, since gcc 4.1 produces ATLAS code that is significantly slower. Therefore i tried to install gcc 4.2.1 First, i don't know how to tell yast that it shall install gcc 4.2.1 (yast would only install 4.1). Perhaps you have a hint... _________________________- you may have to wait for SuSE 10.3, or build it yourself __________________________ Then, i downloaded the sources, and did ./configure and make. But make failed. ____________________________-- where the instructions say you must configure in a clean directory. Tim Prince
