These file should be in the gg:bin, what may of happened if you
followed the instructions on the geekgadgets page is that you forgot
to add the gg: assign to your user startup. You also need to add
execute GG:Sys/S/GG-Startup. That script sets up all assigns and
paths as well as other things.
Also as a side note since you are compiling a single file then you
can use:
gcc -o ram:test ram:test.c
which will do all compiling and linking.

This is because the object was not properly created.

I suggest first getting the C part set up first.

There is no need to set these, GCC will search the defaults in its
dirs automatically(include, os-include).

Its in gg:include/g++-3

No, because Storm has its own default includes and these may clash(eg
stdio.h). I suggest copy from the NDK35 to gg:os-include, remember
that you dont need the proto and pragmas, since GG comes with them(in
gg:include).

No problem, I am sure a lot of people have these problems, I had them
recently when I installed it.
BTW the cause of most problems is that GCC is case sensitive.
