I need some guidance. I am using the 32 bit SuSe 11.0 gnome and I tried to update my nvidia driver to the latest version. When trying to install the driver, the installation fails saying that I am missing the development tool “cc” and to make sure that “gcc” is installed. It goes on to say that if it is installed, it needs to be in my path. So, two questions…
How do I check to see if gcc is installed and how do I add it to my path? Any/all help is GREATLY appreciated!

Hash: SHA1
rpm -q gcc
should give you the current version installed, if it is. If not:
yast -i gcc #run as ‘root’)
which gcc
Will return the path to gcc if it’s there. You could also just type
‘gcc’ and see if it does anything useful.
Good luck.

Something else to consider…
If you install your libraries (packages) with YAST, unless you similar packages (like multiple versions of Java) the default path will be created for you automatically.
If you installed multiple versions of the same type of package, then you might have to do some manual configuration (likely post back to this forum with specifics).
Could also try in a console: which gcc. If it returns with the complete path to gcc it means it is installed. If for some reason you installed gcc in a different location, i mean not in path, you can modify the environment variable PATH. In a console: PATH=your path
export PATH.
