If you back out to the main menu you should see items labeled
"Sample" and "Data".

With or without the typo ("disabale")?

Then apparently your compiler is defining the symbol _OPENMP
even though it is not being passed the flag -fopenmp. That
seems to me broken behavior.
What does "gcc -v" say?

"Permission denied": You need to decide whether you're compiling
as root or not, and be consistent in that. Meanwhile "man chown".

Apparently you have configured the gretl build with
--enable-openmp, but the compiler is not finding its openmp
library (which would be libgomp.so if gcc is being used).
Try removing --enable-openmp, or forcing the issue with
--disable-openmp.

problems compiling gretl (cvs)
by Artur Tarassow
Hey,
I just wanted to compile the newest cvs on my freshly installed ubuntu
11.04. system.
Trying to start gretl, returns the following message:
"/usr/local/bin/gretl_x11: symbol lookup error:
/usr/lib/libgretl-1.0.so.0: undefined symbol: omp_get_wtime"
I don't know what this actually means. But I remember, that I already
had some problems to compile gretl properly after a new installation in
the past...
Best,
Artur

On what platform are you using gretl? The "beep on useless
backspace" behavior is controlled by the GTK configuration file,
gtkrc, but how you get at that depends on the platform.

Well, here's my experience on OS X 10.6.6. I installed today's
gretl snapshot for OS X intel (build date 2011-04-14, but not much
has changed in regard to translations lately). The default locale
is en_US, but I used gretl's language selector to select in turn
"Portuguese" and "Portuguese (Brazil)". In the first case "File"
came out as "Ficheiro" and in the second case as "Arquivo", so I
conclude that gretl's translation mechanism is in working order.
Have you updated OS X recently, and could that be the problem?

Turning off sounds
by Bruno Thiago Tomio
Hello,
How to turn off sounds in gretl? When backspacing with nothing writeen in a new
series window using GUI, gretl makes some beeps. Is it possible to turn it off?
Many thanks,

Yes, but not only that: to use the menu item "/Variable/X-12-ARIMA
analysis" the time-series data must be of a frequency that
x12a can handle, namely quarterly or monthly. You can check this
by opening the (supplied) Ramanathan data set data9-7, which
is quarterly: if x12a is installed correctly that menu item should
be active.

True enough. That's now fixed in CVS.
