reinstalling gcc

Forum thread started by kidd106 on Tue, 2011-11-01 02:10

how would I go about reinstalling gcc?

I was trying to compile solution 1 from http://www.learncpp.com/cpp-tutorial/111-comprehensive-quiz/
and I got this error:

~/Desktop/c++learning/quiz1> gcc -o num1 num1.cpp
/tmp/ccmz5SRA.o: In function `ReadNumber(void)':
num1.cpp:(.text+0x21): undefined reference to `cout'
num1.cpp:(.text+0x29): undefined reference to `ostream::operator<<(char const *)'
num1.cpp:(.text+0x39): undefined reference to `cin'
num1.cpp:(.text+0x41): undefined reference to `istream::operator>>(int &)'
/tmp/ccmz5SRA.o: In function `WriteAnswer(int)':
num1.cpp:(.text+0x70): undefined reference to `endl(ostream &)'
num1.cpp:(.text+0x8c): undefined reference to `cout'
num1.cpp:(.text+0x94): undefined reference to `ostream::operator<<(char const *)'
num1.cpp:(.text+0x9f): undefined reference to `ostream::operator<<(int)'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

I thought maybe I would try to installing the latest gcc from Haikuware. I did something wrong and so now gcc gives me this error

gcc: installation problem, cannot exec `cc1plus': No such file or directory
~/Desktop/c++learning/quiz1> 

I just copied and pasted the solution so could someone tell me what went wrong after I am able to fix gcc?

Haiku booting woes under VirtualBox

Forum thread started by BUH on Wed, 2011-10-26 02:49

Felicitations! I'm having some difficulties getting my Haiku VM to boot consistently; currently, the thing only seems to boot when it wants to, which is about 6% of the time. Mostly it just hangs at the boot screen with all the little icons lit.

System information!

  • Mac OS X v10.7 host
  • VirtualBox 4.1.4 r74291 environment (latest version)
  • Haiku's VDI came pre-made from VirtualBoxes.org with Haiku R1/Alpha 3 preinstalled.

VirtualBox settings

  • OS: Other
  • Version: Other/Unknown
  • 512MB RAM
  • 32MB VRAM
  • PAE/NX enabled
  • VT-x/AMD-V enabled
  • Nested Paging enabled
  • Serial port enabled (read somewhere Haiku won't boot without this)
  • Default everything else!

Is there a fix for this, or is this standard alpha behavior? Thank you!

Internet Apps

Forum thread started by haikuhacker on Mon, 2011-10-24 17:29

I installed BePodder and BWeather from Haikuware on Alpha3 and both programs function properly, but for connecting to the internet.
I also installed Friss with

installoptionalpackage -a friss

It does connect to the rss feeds that I have added to it.

I was wondering if I needed to start an http network service to get BePodder and BWeather to connect.

EDIT

I don't know if this is related to the above, but it is a connectivity issue.
I haveto boot twice for a network connection. The first time I boot there is no network connection. Then I reboot and there is a network connection.

Boot Problem

Forum thread started by Hank on Mon, 2011-10-24 13:59

I just installed Haiku on an Acer Extensa 4420. At the splash screen, the boot stops at the fourth icon (mounting boot disk); that is, the first three icons light-up, only. If I re-boot in Safe Mode, and click BOTH "Safe Mode" and "Disable ACPI" it will boot successfully to the Haiku desktop. Any solution on how to fix this? Note: I had this identical problem when I tried to install Haiku from an installation CD. Only by using "Safe Mode" and "Disable ACPI" would it install. (I'm new to all this so any help is appreciated.) Thanks.

Need Some Help Installing

Forum thread started by Captain TacoLad on Sun, 2011-10-23 23:35

Hey guys, as you can see from the subject, I'm having a bit of trouble installing and getting Haiku up and running. I'm running Snow Leopard on an Intel based Mac Pro from I believe late '08.

I have tried both burning a CD and running off of a thumb drive, with no success. For the CD, I burned the .ISO image on to a blank disk using the built in Disk Utility, but I cannot get my computer to boot from the disk no matter how hard I try. For the thumb drive, I followed these (https://www.haiku-os.org/guides/installing/making_haiku_usb_stick) directions to the dot, but an error message pops up saying that the disk image is not readable by this computer, and I can't boot from it.

I'm a complete newbie at running any OS's but the standard ones, so any help at all is greatly appreciated.

Cheers.

Does Intel based BeOS applications supposed to run under Haiku ?

Forum thread started by macsociety on Thu, 2011-10-20 01:48

As my subject states, does Intel based BeOS applications supposed to run unmodified under Haiku?

Are all downloadable applications on Haikuware Haiku only apps or are there BeOS apps also.

Why Doesn't Wifi Work?

Forum thread started by nitt on Wed, 2011-10-19 22:05

I typed in the "install-wifi-firmwares.sh" and it said it installed successfully, but I can't connect to wifi.

When I hook up to lan, it said "/dev/net/broadcom570x/0". But if I disconnect from lan and use "ifconfig /dev/net/broadcom570x/0 dlink" it says that "'/dev/net/broadcom570x/0' is not a WLAN device!"

I just typed in the device, and it gave me this:

Hardware type: Ethernet, Address: 88:ae:1d:86:22:c1
Media type: 100 MBit, 100BASE-TX
inet addr: 192.168.0.199, Bcast: 192.168.0.255, Mask: 255.255.255.0
MTU: 1500, Metric: 0, up broadcast link auto-configured
Receive: 5797 packets, 0 errors, 5631765 bytes, 0 mcasts, 0 dropped
Transmit: 4776 packets, 0 errors, 636847 bytes, 0 mcasts, 0 dropped
Collisions: 0

How can I get wifi to work?
