Subject: Compatibility problem - gcc and go32. Please help...


Hi djgpp_users,

	I am new to djgpp and got the following files for the first time:

1. bnu22bn.zip
2. djdev111.zip
3. djdoc111.zip
4. djeoe111.zip
5. gas211bn.zip
6. gcc257bn.zip
7. gpp257.zip
8. objc257.zip
9. txi210bn.zip

and

1. readme.1st
2. readme

When I installed these on my pc (486DX2, 66MHz), I was told that the file
"go32.exe" is not found. So I got version 1.11 from some stanford site.
When I ran the "tryit.bat" program (and "testit.bat"), "go32.exe" ran and
told me how much expanded memory and swap space I had available. Then
"gcc.exe" ran and told me the following:

"go32 version 1.11 Copyright (C) 1993 DJ Delorie
Error: This program requires a version of go32 (1.11.maint1) newer than this
one."

What does it mean by "newer" ? I thought that 1.11 is the latest one. Can
some one tell me how I can fix this problem (or get a newer copy of go32.exe ?
Also on "omnigate.clarkson.edu", in the "pub/msdos/djgpp" directory, I found
a subdirectory "1.10" and another file "1.11_is_on_Simtel". What is Simtel?
Is it a site/subdirectory/server ?? How do I access all 1.11 compatible soft-
ware?

I am not at all familiar with this software/setup and will appreciate any
advice mailed to "vdalvi AT mcd DOT intel DOT com"
thanks in advance,

Vishram
