Linking to shared libraries?

I'm trying to link with the curses library.

But when I do:

ld -o test test.o -lcurses

It responds with:
ld: warning: cannot find entry symbol _start; defaulting to 08048260

And when I try to start the resulting executable, I get:
bash: ./test: No such file or directory

What am I doing wrong?

Still don't know what I did wrong, but if I let gcc do the linking, there's no problem.

gcc -o test test.c -lcurses
