Oh, I see.  I didn't know that the CD I sent you had a GUI (graphical user
interface) -- I thought it was a straight console.

It's possible that the library is not included.  On my computer, it says
that it's in the libc6-dev package.

So, this may just work:

$ sudo apt-get install libc6-dev

This probably will only work if you have some "deb cdrom:" lines in your
/etc/apt/sources.list file.  If it does, it will require that the install
CD rom be inserted into the CD drive.

If not, you may have to find the libc6-dev package on the CD yourself and
install it via

$ sudo dpkg -i [package]

If this doesn't work, tell me and I'll make another CD rom with all tools
you'll need to compile.

If you don't have one, you could create it.  You could start out with the
standard one.  In that case, do

$ cp /etc/bash.bashrc $HOME/.bashrc

Good.  Hope that asks for the password less often.  You may want to check
your $HOME/.bash_profile to make sure it's not doing privileged commands
which require a sudo.
