Did you install the xlc compiler? IIRC, it's from AIX; I'm not even sure it can run on Linux.

Can your project build with GCC? Did you install build-essential?

Who told you to use "xlc"? That indeed seems to be IBM's compiler for AIX (http://www.nersc.gov/nusers/resources/software/ibm/xlc.html).

Install build-essential:

sudo apt-get install build-essential
And use gcc to compile your program:

gcc hello.c -o hello
