Carl,
   I have been experimenting with various distros lately on my
(somewhat elderly) Dell Inspirion 7000 laptop.

a. Slackware 8:  Installed ok but couldn't configure X-windows
automatically.

b. Mandrake 8.2.  Installed ok and configured X-windows ok.  Gcc is
seriously broken, in their distribution CDs, but I haven't looked on thier
web site to see if there are fixes. Perhaps this is your problem.
                                    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

c. RH7.2: Everything worked fine there, except windows slop over edges and
cntl-alt-+/- doesn't do anything. 

I'm not done yet.
