compiled c differences across puppy and fedora

[guest]

Hi

I've got a miniterm type c program which I'm trying to run on puppy which I developed on fedora install. The code compiles using gcc on both platforms fine but runs differently. can I simply copy the libs over from fedora or something ..

please help.

I don't know if thecurrent fedora is binary-compatible.
If the program compileson puppy, butdoes not work - what forerrors do you get?

Some shell-commands might be incompatible, as Puppy uses busybox, that replaces some commands with other versions.

You could try to copy libs from fedora- or use them from Debian.

What do you mean 'differently'? How do both binary differ?

The miniterm I've written/amended monitors input from a serial device which accepts hex based commands. For some reason now I run on puppy the commands I was getting in, which were ascii numbers but are actually being sent as hex numbers are being displayed as -1073743086 is this a conversions problem which I can code around or am I seeing the memory address of the value hex3 or something else.. I'm lost.

cheers
