Hi Jon,
Clearly, you have something wrong in the installation process.
I cannot say more since you do not specify what you did, which Linux
version
or compiler version ?
Did you try to import our standard binary distribution and run the same
test.
For people installing themselves from the makefiles, run the validation
suite:
cd $ROOTSYS/tutorials
root
Root > .x benchmarks.C
Root > .q
cd $ROOTSYS/test
gmake
stress 30
If this test suite does not run, there is no point in trying something
else.
