Hi lokesh,
thanks a lot, you don't but i'm a friend of vipin.
actually in our office also we came to same conclusion.
we compiled the kernal for a.out support.we also downloaded the source and
compiled it
it took a lot of time since the program we were trying to compiled used SUIT
whit inturn used
srgp library. the program is called kpe80 and we downloaded from ftp site
phon.ucl.ac.uk
i require the kpe80 for my project in speech synthesis.

the problem is not solved yet, program is giving core dump when we are
trying to run with 16 bit colour
it is running with 8 bit colour but corrupting the colour table.output is
also not stable.could i run it in 16 bit colour mode .

Please help
bye
Thanks in Advance
Manas
