When I attempt to use Allegro functions, or compile any program which includes the allegro.bi file, I get an error: "ld: cannot find -lalleg-4.0.3"

I have the development libraries for Allegro installed, and there's a library called liballeg.a in my /usr/lib directory. I tried changing the allegro.bi file to use this library instead, but it generated another error: "ld: cannot find -lalleg_unshareable"

I'm new to Linux. Any help would be appreciated.

Also, if Von's IDE is portable, why aren't there any Linux binaries? I'd love one.

a) not sure why, but i do know linux doesn't use the .a files, so changing the inclib in the bi file won't help.

b) because gcc hates its guts. we're working on it, don't worry. and my fb port of it for linux is available for download a couple pages back i think, even if it doesn't support all the new features, it does support many of them.
