Hello,
I believe I have successfully got an unregisterised version of ghc 6.4.2 compiled for arm/linux.
Updates: ------- 1) I turns out I only had a in-place build of ghc, I have now got a real build 'working'. 2) I have started putting my notes in the Wiki I added a section to the end of this page: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Platforms And started this page: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/ArmLinuxGhc I will add the information about getting from an inplace .hc build to a normal build tomorrow. 3) It would appear that the floating point problem is still a problem. It did not cause any compile time errors. But ghc generates bogus answers, the one liner: main = print 1.0 prints: 5.299808824e-315 I found this thread from the last time it came up: http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/glasgow-haskell-users/2005-January/007688.h... According to this page: http://wiki.tcl.tk/15408 The nokia 770 uses middle endian for floating point: http://www.catb.org/jargon/html/M/middle-endian.html I will do more research tomorrow and see what needs to be done. j.
