Re: floating point exception?
Here is a little more about that: (it seems that I will start a
discussion with myself about this problem...)
I used earlier suse 5.2. and installed the same program and it worked
perfectly (being wordperfect that is quite natural, of course).
But I realized at that time that my machine is possessing an early pentium
processor, which has got a certain bug, which is shown at the booting
time. Earlier I had the kernel compiled as well. I haven't compiled the
debian hamm kernel yet.
Is it possible that this error message is related
to that cpu bug and to the uncompiled kernel?
