/var/log/messages
BTW, there is a place for your distro(s) in your control panel that will put it/them on the left. I spot it better there than in your sig. # Use dmesg to view the kernel ring buffer (error messages) dmesg | less # Watch error messages as they happen (sysklog needed) as root, tail -f /var/log/messages (shows last 10 lines, use a number in front of f for more lines) # Mandrake links Mandrake home page Mandrake Users website Easy urpmi config for Mandrake urpmi mini-HOWTO Easy software management: Red Carpet Maximum RPM rpmfind You didn't install the developmental packages? As root, command: urpmi gcc An Introduction to the Midnight Commander. You can install it by commanding: urpmi mc Midnight Commander home page |
