Every time I try to compile an applet I get the following: "/usr/local/java/bin/./../bin/i586/java: can't resolve symbol '__libc_malloc'" The documentation says: "If you don't already have it, get libc.5.2.16.bin.tar.gz from ftp://tsx-11.mit.edu/pub/linux/packages/GCC/ . Uncompress and untar and copy the files in the lib subdirectory of the top level of the hierarchy to /lib." Will libc.5.2.18 work? (I assumed backwards compatibility of course) The resultant .tar file extracts an 'include' and a 'libc' directory -- NOT a 'lib' directory. Do I need to put the .tar file into the root directory and extract there or what? Allan Crump
