I have quite a full system running. (X11, mail, usr.bin,
ghost*, etc). If I were to add 387 to my system what
should I do to take advantage of it?
My system is quite a mess in one sense. There are thinks
compiled statically, and with shared libs ranging from
gcc 2.11a to newest 4.1 jump libs.
I would imagine, that changing a link in /lib, in
/usr/lib would do. However I dont know quite what links
to change.
My /lib has following libm libs :
-rwxr-xr-x 1 bin bin 21508 Aug 16 00:02
libm.2.2
-rwxr-xr-x 1 bin bin 13316 Jul 28 23:57
libm.2.2.2
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 Sep 12 13:12
libm.so.2 -> /lib/libm.so.2.2
-rwxr-xr-x 1 bin bin 21508 Aug 16 00:02
libm.so.2.2
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 Sep 25 19:43
libm.so.4 -> /lib/libm.so.4.0
-rwxr-xr-x 1 bin bin 103428 Sep 4 07:11
libm.so.4.0
-rwxr-xr-x 1 bin bin 13316 Jul 28 23:57
libm_v2_11c
and my /usr/lib has libm.a linked to libsoft.a .
Please help me - what should I do after I by 387 ?
Thanks for an amazing system ....
