    No, you need 2 different version of the compiler, 1 will be your native compiler, 1 will be your cross-compiler.

    This page explains cross compiling and GCC http://www.objsw.com/CrossGCC/FAQ.html.

    You can compile gcc to be a linux/mingw cross compiler.

    Basically download binutils and gcc, and when you configure them, pass

    --target=i386-mingw
    to it and you'll end up with some cross-compilers Regards

  20. Re:Would this work with UK Digital Cable? on Digital Cable HDTV Tuner Card Reviewed · · Score: 1

    In the UK you'll need a DVB-T card for digital terrestrial, a DVB-C card for NTL, or a DVB-S card for Sky.

    The problem with NTL is the decryption. You can get a Nagra Vision CAM and a DVB-C card that'll except it, but apparentely the NTL card is matched to your NTL box, and it will not work in any other.
