Thank you guys!  You're very helpful!

I downloaded the rpm and typed:

#rpm -i svgalib-1.4.1-2.src.rpm

I don't think this is how this type of RPM gets installed.... it's a "source" RPM I take it?

It didn't give any errors but didn't fix my compile problem, either.

Sorry for asking a Linux question.... but is there a right way to get the graphics library installed?

Thanks, again.

Jeff

ps. BTW, we're eventually converting a DOS-based Turbo Pascal program. This program is used by scientists all over the world. They will LOVE to upgrade to Linux!

Hello!

The following happened while compiling the maze example application.
Do I need to compile this from a graphical terminal?  I was using SSH.
This is no problem at all. But you must run it on a local machine in a
terminal (not from X)

Or am I missing something?
Yes, you need libsvga (package name maybe svgalib) installed.

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lvga
maze.pp(508) Error: Error while linking

Ciao,

Olaf
