Hi list, some time ago I downloaded Piper and all the stuff needed to make it run. After some hassles ( and after installing gcc 2.95.2 ) I got everything to compile and install. When I start piper, I get the following output in the xterm I start it from: deMoivre:~# piper Starting definition layer... Starting pied... deMoivre:~# Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by C library /dev/dsp: No such device Getting document...

Checking the indicated files for the undefined symbols shows indeed that said symbols are undefined. The same applies if I start up FreeSpeech / Overflow: I get a window, but I don't get symbols to draw networks with. I guess for the same reason..... What mistake did I make or what do I still need ? ======================================================================= "It was hell. They knew it.
