Hi,

I tried to experiment with boost::random_device (e.g. 
http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_42_0/libs/random/nondet_random_speed.cpp), 
but failed to link it:

randomTest.cpp:36: undefined reference to 
`boost::random_device::operator()()'
randomTest.o: In function `main':
randomTest.cpp:57: undefined reference to 
`boost::random_device::default_token'
randomTest.cpp:57: undefined reference to 
`boost::random_device::random_device(std::basic_string<char, 
std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> > const&)'
randomTest.cpp:63: undefined reference to 
`boost::random_device::~random_device()'

There seems to be a boost_random library missing.

I am using Ubuntu-8.04, 64bit with gcc-4.2.4.

Thanks and regards,

Roland
