I tried recompiling Konqueror on my machine a while back with the -mieee flag to get rid of the SIGFPEs. What I discovered is that you actually have to recompile most of KDE as well (i.e. all the libraries Konqueror depends on). - -T PS: I don't know what gcc is used on the boxes used to compile the packages, but gcc-3.3 in the testing distribution has already been patched (a patched gcc is easily identified by checking the gcc man page for a DEBIAN SPECIFIC part under -mieee). - -- Tyson Whitehead ([EMAIL PROTECTED] -- WSC-) Computer Engineer Dept. of Applied Mathematics, Graduate Student- Applied Mathematics University of Western Ontario, GnuPG Key ID# 0x8A2AB5D8 London, Ontario, Canada -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFAKobARXbLmIoqtdgRAkBSAJ9t7nl+zXyu8OoJ/CeV09ZL9ssHZACgmHzr dlDOYr8a5I4GD81/1jWGjqQ= =B3Gp -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
