Hummm ... now I got it ... Just to open my mind , when you execute 'ls -la usr/local/arm-linux/lib/libc.so.6', what is showed out !? btw, If i'm not making a mistake, this library is the glibc library, which is the responsible to provide and perform system calls . regards On 5/16/05, Clive Chapman <anbeyon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi Antonio > > I have been looking at the scratchbox solution - It does seem like a really > good solution. > > The only thing is I already have a LINUXdistribution and set of compiler > tools for the hardware I'm using.
