[beacon_rahul]

OK I DID SEARCHED THE PACKAGE MANAGER FOR BINUTILS and gcc BUT THERE WAS NOTHIN,,,,,I ALSO UPDATED MY SYSTEM (52 PACKAGES,152 MB)....BUT STILL THAT SAME BINUTILS ERROR,,,,,
THEN I DID -----urpmi as
[root@localhost guest]# urpmi binutils
unable to access hdlist file of "contrib", medium ignored
no package named binutils

NOW WHAT TO DO?????

[beacon_rahul]

i installed the same mandriva-2007free-kde,, on my frends pc--pentium 4,32bit,intel 82845 g graphics,,,,,,and the compiz is workin on his pc,,,,no binutils,,,,gcc errors,,,,,,
SO I DONT THINK THAT THERE CUD BE A PROB WITH THE CD,,,,,the only thing thats screwing it all is the NVIDIA,,,,,aaahhh mannnn!!!!!
