Hi! Try ./a.out That should work. Or setup your path variable to look in . (current dir). Cheers alexm On Fri, 31 Jul 1998, Naceur Bouziani wrote:

Hi everybody !

I have now a PC running Suse 5.2 linux OS. I am very happy with it. however today I spent all the day installing gcc, f2c and g77 whith yast. This seems to be excuted sucsecefully. The problem arise when I use it to compile and run a fortran program.

here is the problem :

aloha:/root # g77 prog.f aloha:/root # ll total 234 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 751 Jul 31 19:46 prog.f -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 163751 Jul 31 19:46 a.out* aloha:/root # a.out & [1] 663 bash: a.out: command not found [1]+ Exit 127 a.out

Is this a problem of the shell 'bash' wich come with the distribution (Suse 5.2) ? Or the problem is much more complicated ? Should I learn how to get and compile gcc (from scrach!!) ?

Could any one, please help me with advise ?

Thank you very much

PS: I am new to linux and very new in being root of a machine !
