The linux distro / version is typically in a text file named
/etc/issue. There's other places it lives, but that's a common spot.
I think an acid test you might want to try is to compile and run a
simple "hello world" in C++ -- outside of MPI -- to see if your C++
compiler and support libraries are installed properly. LAM uses a
little C++, so it requires that you can compile, link, and run C++
programs properly. Try compiling and running the following (forgive
typos -- I'm typing this off the top of my head directly in my mail
client):
-----
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main(int argc, char* argv[]) {
cout << "Hello, world!" << endl;
return 0;
}
