<fontfamily><param>Courier New</param>Hello and greetings,


	Newbie here, hope this isn't abusing the list.....

I've tried to follow all the instructions from the faqs and

instructions....  The only thing I could not do yet is look at

the list archives, www.delorie.com seems to be down...

I've compiled allegro (neat!), but am having trouble with GRX.

I've just got DJGPP, with GRX2.?, but decided to download GRX 2.3,

and try again - but with the same problem.

Running make, everything is fine till -


gcc -c -O2 -Wall -g -DDEBUG=1 -m486 -I. -I./include -I../include
-I../addons/print -I../addons/bmp utils/shiftscl.c -o utils/shiftscl.o

utils/shiftscl.c: In function `_GR_shift_scanline':

utils/shiftscl.c: 48: Invalid `asm' statement:

utils/shiftscl.c:48: fixed or forbidden regiser 2 (cx) was spilled for
class C.

utils/shiftscl.c:102: Invalid `asm' statement:

utils/shiftscl.c:102: fixed or forbidden register 2(cx) was spilled fo
class C.


It seems to be in a temporary .asm file in %DJGPP%/temp, but make cleans
up

the file so I can't look at it - not that it would do any good, I'm

pretty ignorant of assembly.  


I've saved a copy of shiftscl.c, eliminated the asm inline stuff, and
rerun

make, who then complains about an invalid 386 instruction 'exch' in the

temporary file mentioned above.


I'm running on a 486-50 (packard bell) with win95 on it.


Thanks alot for any responses,

Tom Garrison
