I have the problem of debugging a huge cod (that I had to change) on a Linux cluster "cpile".

Expecially browsing the on-line P.G. documentation (residing on cpile) is a pain ... On the other in the department where I work they only have Windows boxes from which I cannot connect to cpile (Linux cluster) without installing cross-platform packages that require time and experience to make them working. ... I do not have either one at the moment.
I was advice to use Knoppix ... I do not know what is is and what it is for ...
Thank you in advance, Maura
Knoppix is one of the Live CD versions of Linux available today. It runs totally from the CD-Rom, so can be placed basically in any i386 based computer and run. It boots to KDE 3.3 and has a number of debugging tools. More information and downloads availble from http://www.knopper.net/knoppix/index-en.html From my point of view it is a brilliant piece of software for debugging and repairing disk drives. -- Regards, Graham Smith ---------------------------------------------------------
