Hi, folks, Before I get started, let me make it clear that I have no real coding experience (not since the late 70's), and I definitely don't speak C or any modern language other than a little shell scripting. Please keep that in mind when composing any reply. I'm running FreeBSD 4.3 on a 'clone' workstation with a FIC PA-2013 motherboard, 256MB RAM, and all-SCSI on the disk side. I've had some problems installing GNOME 1.4 with the Makefile downloaded from the FreeBSD FTP site. Specifically: It was going along great guns when my system, for reasons that I have yet to determine, suddenly froze. No core dump, no kernel panic, no indication of any trouble at all. It just simply stopped. I hard-rebooted. Everything cleaned up OK, apparently, and I tried restarting the makefile run. It got a little ways through, and then spat the following at me. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- cc -shared -Wl,--rpath -Wl,/usr/X11R6/lib gnome-about.lo gnome-animator.lo gnome-app.lo gnome-appbar.lo gnome-app-helper.lo gnome-app-util.lo gnome-calculator.lo gnome-canvas.lo gnome-canvas-image.lo gnome-canvas-load.lo gnome-canvas-line.lo gnome-canvas-rect-ellipse.lo gnome-canvas-polygon.lo gnome-canvas-text.lo gnome-canvas-util.lo gnome-canvas-widget.lo gnome-client.lo gnome-color-picker.lo gnome-dateedit.lo gnome-dentry-edit.lo gnome-dialog.lo gnome-dialog-util.lo gnome-dns.lo gnome-dock.lo gnome-dock-band.lo gnome-dock-item.lo gnome-dock-layout.lo gnome-druid.lo gnome-druid-page.lo gnome-druid-page-start.lo gnome-druid-page-standard.lo gnome-druid-page-finish.lo gnome-geometry.lo gnome-guru.lo gnome-entry.lo gnome-file-entry.lo gnome-font-picker.lo gnome-font-selector.lo gnome-href.lo gnome-ice.lo gnome-icon-list.lo gnome-icon-item.lo gnome-icon-sel.lo gnome-icon-text.lo gnome-icon-entry.lo gnome-init.lo gnome-less.lo gnome-mdi.lo gnome-mdi-child.lo gnome-mdi-generic-child.lo gnome-mdi-session.lo gnome-messagebox.lo gnome-number-entry.lo gnome-pixmap.lo gnome-pixmap-entry.lo gnome-popup-menu.lo gnome-popup-help.lo gnome-preferences.lo gnome-propertybox.lo gnome-properties.lo gnome-property-entries.lo gnome-scores.lo gnome-spell.lo gnome-startup.lo gnome-stock.lo gnome-winhints.lo gnome-paper-selector.lo gnome-procbar.lo gnome-window.lo gnome-window-icon.lo gnometypes.lo gtkcauldron.lo gtk-clock.lo gtk-ted.lo gtkdial.lo gtkpixmapmenuitem.lo -L/usr/local/lib -lesd -laudiofile -lm -laudiofile -lm -lglib12 -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lgdk_imlib -ltiff -lungif -lpng -lz -lm -lgtk12 -lgdk12 -lgmodule12 -lglib12 -lintl -lxpg4 -lXext -lX11 -lm -lSM -lICE -lgtk12 -lgdk12 -lgmodule12 -lglib12 -lintl -lxpg4 -lXext -lX11 -lm -lz -lm -Wl,-soname -Wl,libgnomeui.so.4 -o .libs/libgnomeui.so.4 gnome-druid-page.lo: file not recognized: File format not recognized gmake[3]: *** [libgnomeui.la] Error 1 gmake[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/x11/gnomelibs/work/gnome-libs-1.2.11/libgnomeui' gmake[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/x11/gnomelibs/work/gnome-libs-1.2.11/libgnomeui' gmake[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/x11/gnomelibs/work/gnome-libs-1.2.11' gmake: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2 *** Error code 2 Stop in /usr/ports/x11/gnomelibs. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/x11/gnomelibs. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/x11/gnomelibs. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/x11/gnomelibs. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/home/kyrrin. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/home/kyrrin. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/home/kyrrin. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/home/kyrrin. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/home/kyrrin. seleth# -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- My questions: (a) What happened? (b) How can I clear it up? My speculation: The sudden halt corrupted one or more required files. Which ones, and where do I replace them from if this is indeed what happened?
