Hey, MeltDown!

What kernel are you using for UT2k4? And what distro and libstdc++ version?

Reason I ask is (so far) I've not been able to run it under FC4 due to
an incompatible libstdc++ version (libstdc++.so.6 vs. libstdc++.so.5,
which is what UT wants...). Have you or anyone you know run into this?
If so, how was it fixed? ...hopefully short of major install surgery...

As you see above, you should be able to install multiple versions. At
least on Debian based systems, that is.

I never had this kind of problem, but I'd try installing libstdc++5.
The nice things about unix libraries is that the library version is
part of the filename, so you can have multiple versions of a library
installed.

Thanks. I appreciate it. Never knew about the multi libs on the same
system. Going hunting for ver. 5 now...

But i'd just like to add that.. the Nice people at Ubuntu just sent me a
free stack of disks, some of which i've passed out to the guys in the studio
at work, and the others I'm going to stash untill i need them (next system
upgrade)

just how do they do that, how can they afford to give away stacks of nicely
packaged CD's ?

There is a really rich guy behind the Ubuntu project, with a good
sense of how to spend his money.

He also spent a few million to pay a visit to the MIR ;-)

MIR ?

I had heard something about the guy owning something big online and selling
it.
