Nope, sorry, that's C ;) C++ is...

#include <iostream.h>

int main()
{
    cout << "Hi there!\n";
    return (0);
}

. and even that's "C-like" C++ ;)

Try renaming test.cpp to test.c. Then, (assuming gmake), type 'make test'.

>2). Also I have 128Mbytes of RAM, but where do you tell Linux that I have this memory, since it says >that it is 65Mbytes?

At lilo, instead of typing 'linux' type 'linux mem=128'. But, are you *positive* it thinks you have 65Mb?? That doesn't sound likely to me! Post the output of 'free' if you are able. 

Cheers,

Alex.
