Are you using gfortran?
If so, what do you get when you type:
gfortran -c myprogram.f90

I've solved my problem, but just in case someone else goes down this path, I'll document what happened.
1. I downloaded the Gnome desktop from the Software Center
2. My system was on auto login...

I don't get a login screen.
It jumps straight to the blue window.

I recently upgraded from 10.04 to 12.04 Ubuntu, but I cannot get used to the Unity desktop, so I decided to use Gnome instead, which I loaded from the Software Center (or whatever it's called).

I'm migrating from 10.04 to 12.04 by upgrading, and I've passed thru 10.10, 11.04 and onto 11.10 OK. But now I've got 11.10 and it's completely different to anything before and I'm lost.

Where is...

Odd sort of argument that.
It's like saying you should use a bicycle, not a car, because a bike can go lots of places a car cannot go and what will happen if your car breaks down? You will have no...

Thank you Cariboo.
I'll refrain from using the Search facility, and use Google in future.

Is it just me, or do others find the search facility of this forum to be off-the-wall?

I wanted to find references to nano, so I typed this into the wee box and clicked Go, and the search facility...

I have noticed that quite a few tutorials suggest using nano or vi to edit text files. These editors are awful. They remind me of WordMaster that we used to use back in the 1980s with CP/M systems...

I had this problem a few years ago on one of my machines.
Turned out to be this:

Oh dear, this got screwed up. It should have read:


and

${color3}${execi 1800 grep "Latest" FinishTimes.htm}

I've downloaded a .htm file from the WWW which has the following few lines:


and in my Conky script I do this:

${color3}${execi 1800 grep "Latest" FinishTimes.htm}


but when it prints on...

I've solved the problem.
It wasn't that I was missing libraries at all.
What I needed to do was to re-compile all the .f90 files using the new gfortran.
gfortran was getting screwed up trying to...

I've recently upgraded from 8.04 to 9.10 and in the process, I've lost access to gfortran. I'm using the gfortran that came with Karmic, but when I execute the make file I get this:

When I booted up today, my screen resolution had suddenly reduced to 800x600 and I don't seem to be able to increase it. I'm running Ubuntu 8.04.

Here's what I get when I do:

That website says that you need Conky 1.7.1, but the latest available in my repository is 1.5.1 (I'm running Hardy 8.04 LTS).

How do you get a hold of Conky 1.7.1?
Other than compiling from...

I recently had to restrict access to a site for a client in local government who was worried that the info I had on the site would cause him grief with his tax payers. I did it by simply editing...

Hey!!
I solved it simply by removing Apache using Synaptic Package Manager.
While playing around installing MySQL, I must have inadvertently installed Apache as well and that over-rode the XAMPP...

Yes, MySQL starts, but the Apache that is running is not the Apache from XAMMP, but one from somewhere else. This means that localhost is different from the one that I've set up for MySQL.

What I...

I'd like to post an image (.png) to my screen that gets updated every hour.
Looking through various Conky scripts it appears you do this using font, but I cannot quite figure it out.....

In my neck of the woods, we never use *** anyway. It's ****, as in "the arseholes have raised our taxes again". It has the advantage that it's a 4 letter word like a lot of other good old Anglo...
