    cannot find -latlas

    Hi,

    I tried compiling a file using make and got the following error:
    ..
    /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -latlas
    collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
    make: *** [pcatoy] Error 1.

    Could someone help me out with this?

    I tried locate atlas, and got
    /lib/modules/2.6.27.5/-117.fc10.i686/kernel/drivers/input/misc/atlas_btns.ko

    I'm a total newbie, I'd appreciate any help!

    Thanks!

    Re: cannot find -latlas

    Hi,

    I tried it, but got the same error again.

    /usr/lib contains libX11.so.6.2.0,

    so I tried

    ln -s libX11.so.6.2.0 libX11.so.

    thanks,
    shweta
