Visualizations

[C.Beamer]

Hi All,

I'm sorry, this is in really poor form, but I accidentally set a wrong
choice for this mailing list and consequently, didn't get a digest of
the posts and ergo, I have to cut and past to reply.

I have compat-gcc-32 installed.  The problem is I can't install
another version of gcc on the computer and have it exist on my
computer concurrently with gcc 4.0 .  But thanks for the idea. :-)

I will look forward to this.

I wasn't aware that there was an option to ignore something that was
blacklisted.  All I know is that when my ./configure bombed, a message
displayed about the version of gcc being blacklisted and not to bother
reporting a bug.  However, now that you mentioned that I might be able
to choose to ignore a blacklisted program, I'll see if I can figure
out how to do that.

Thanks for the help.  ;-)

This worked!  Thank-you SO much.  I thought that I actually had to
install a lesser version of gcc.

Thanks to all for their suggestions and tips.  Now I can go back to
being a happy Fedora Core 4 user!  :-)
