I would like to run linrad on my Compaq 1250
laptop.
I installed RedHat Linux 8.0 on the laptop
successfully and after some difficulty:
1. Got sound to work using OSS driver for
ES1868
2. Installed svgalib 1.4.3
3. Went to /tmp/lir directory and
successfully ran ./configure
Then I tried to "make" the program.
(see attached file)
The GCC compiler version 3.2 first failed at line
643 with the error:
"main.c:643:14:
multi-line string literals are deprecated
make: ***
[main.o] Error 1"
Yes, GCC does not accept multi-line strings
in the new version.
Next version of Linrad will have one printf statement
for each line.
I commented out the offending printf
statement and tried again and now I get"
"main.c:
In function `main':
main.c:827: parse error at end of input
make: *** [main.o] Error 1"
Any ideas?
I
think something happened while you edited the file. Start from the
original
and
remove the printf statement again. Others have done it
sucessfully.
There in no other multi-line string in
Linrad:-)
parse error at end of input usually means an
unmatched
parenthesis.
I
will be very interested to know if your installation becomes
sucessful.
Very
few laptops work because of svgalib or OSS problems.
Good luck and
