- I had the same problem , trying to port Gnuplot 3.2 to 386BSD Unix clone.
- After removing references to libplot.a in a x11 Makefile Gnuplot compiled without
- problems but it doesn't work. After the initial banner any attempt to plot
- something ( either to the screen under XFree86-1.1 X11 port, or to the file )
- ends up with "Floating point exception, core dumped". Did anyone get further?
-
- Thanks in advance
