REHL 6.2 problem installing gcc/g++ compilers: lib error

Latest response

 

Hello everyone,

 

I need help!

 

I am new to Linux install (finally realizing that having an IT group was so helpful!)

 

Like many other I also need the g++ compiler to install other packages (NVIDIA drivers).

 

I follow your intruction , used yum whatprovides "*/g++" to find the name of the package and used:

 

yum install gcc-c++-4.4.5-6.el6.x86_64 to install the package.

 

But I ran into an error:

 

"Error: Package: libstdc++-devel-4.4.5-6.el6.x86_64 (rhel-x86_64-workstation-6)
           Requires: libstdc++(x86-64) = 4.4.5-6.el6
           Installed: libstdc++-4.4.6-3.el6.x86_64 (@anaconda-RedHatEnterpriseLinux-201111171049.x86_64/6.2)
               libstdc++(x86-64) = 4.4.6-3.el6
           Available: libstdc++-4.4.4-13.el6.x86_64 (rhel-x86_64-workstation-6)
               libstdc++(x86-64) = 4.4.4-13.el6
           Available: libstdc++-4.4.5-6.el6.x86_64 (rhel-x86_64-workstation-6)
               libstdc++(x86-64) = 4.4.5-6.el6
 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
 

 

I tied to install the package for the library , did not work, and I check I had the devtool-set v1.0 and it is already install.

 

Thank you in advance for your help!

OK,

It took me almost a day but I found the issues. I hope it will help other novice like me with the same issue.

 

1st I had to unplugged a USB component (NVIDIA 3D box)

 

The lib problem disappeared!.

Obviously other problem appeared:

Other lib where missing libmpc.so.2()

 

I solved that by downloading lbmpc-0.8-3.el6.x86_64.rpm

 

Finally I was able to install the gcc/g++ compiler.

 

Since I did all f that to install the NVIDIA drivers, that was not enough.

I ran into a kernel version issue. You need to install the kernel-devel package (kernel source are needed to compile the NVIDIA drivers).

I used "yum install kernel-devel"

 

Once done you need to install the NVIDIA package with this comment:

sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-295.59.run --kernel-name='2.6.32-220.17.1.el6.x86_64"

 

And miracle it got installed!

Hi Eric,

 

Thank you for this information as it helped me to install my Nvidia Geforce 210 card on my server. The only change I made was this:

 

sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-yourversion --kernel-source-path="/usr/src/kernels/2.6.32-279.5.2.el6.x86_64"

 

I assume this was slightly different because im running RHEL6.3

 

 

I used these instructions to do the entire installation plus yours to get it to work: http://www.twodee.org/weblog/?p=1056

 

Thanks,

Justin Bolin
