Trying to follow CB Linux Wiki
Pecan:
In the wiki, there is the following statement refering to
/etc/ld.so.conf
--- Quote ---add /opt/wx/2.6/lib to /etc/ld.so.conf (nano /etc/ld.so.conf) then run:
--- End quote ---
ubuntu evidently doesnt have such a beast. At least not on
this ubuntu. I have a /et/ld.so.cache. Do I modify that??
thanks

Thanks ceniza, I'm beginning to wonder why anyone would
want to run linux. It took me all day to GIVE UP on trying to get
it to communicate with windows.
And now, all this, jeezzh
Ceniza:
You don't need to modify that file if you'ren't going to compile wxWidgets by yourself.
"Communicate with Windows". What you mean, samba shares? The easiest way is thru KDE, but Ubuntu comes with Gnome :P
Another way is to mount those shares, but I'mn't sure which package enables smbfs... maybe samba itself?
Anyway, the force be with you, the bed with me.
Good luck, and use the forums, many answers to those Linux questions have been given there.

it worked very easy for me ...
start "File Browser" or run the command nautilus from terminal,
then navigate to or create a folder, which one you want to share with windows.
right click on it and select: "Share folder"
then choose "SMB" option .
if you don't have SMB installed at that time, you'll get asked if you want to install smb package now
and if you accept it'll be installed instantly.
after installing smb, you have to configure the new share
go to "General Windows sharing settings" give a host description name
and for windows it is the best, to use the same Workgroup name as you use on your Windows which you want to communicate with.
i have WINS disabled.
that's it, it may take a few minutes until windows recognices the new server in the workgroup,
but if you know the network share UNC name like \\ubuntu510\shared
you can access it instantly.
dont forget to check your firewall settings, in order not to block communication... ;-)
this works for me without troubles:
WS WinXP SP2
WS Ubuntu510
connected using ethernet with a hub
Pecan:
Firstly, thanks EVERYONE for your patients.! :D

Well, yes, I intent to do everyting on Linux that I do on Windows
in order to support and test the code I write/modify.
RE: seach of the forum for answers. I do. Then I go to google. But dumb me often does not know what to search for.
If you'll tell me that "you should have searched for 'x' " etc, I'll learn
the keys of the linux kingdom. But.. seaching this forum for
/etc/ld.so.conf, I get no hits.
Sorry for the negativity last night/this morning. I had been working with
ubuntu/wx for 20 hrs straight. Should have stopped hours before.
EDIT: if we dont need to modify this file, why is it
int the wiki instructions?
thanks
pecan

I turned off the XP firewall. I dont know what to set in there.
I installed smb and smbfs and created the share "pecan" and "usr"
on "Herman"the ubuntu 510 system. Herman shows up in my XPsp2
workgroup "MSHOME" but when I click on it, it asks me for
a user name and password. I type that in and it just keeps
repeatedly asking over and over.
I create and new user "guest" with pswd on ubuntu and tried
to log in with that from XP. No go.
Any suggestions are welcome. It would be nice to be able to
workgroup these systems instead of CD-networking.
thanks
