noobie compile problem
 

I'm trying to install Kismet on my FC2 laptop. whenever I type "./configure" it says:

"checking for gcc... gcc
checking for C compiler default output... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
See 'config.log' for more details."

um, help? :confused:

Do you have gcc installed? Also, paste the contents of config.log here, since that apparently has some sort of information.

thanks for the quick reply

yes, I have GCC installed. congif.log is as follows:

This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.

It was created by configure, which was
generated by GNU Autoconf 2.57. Invocation command line was

$ ./configure
