Are you copying code from _C_ _for_ _Dummies_ ? – nategoose Sep 17 '10 at 14:22 — nategoose, Sep 17 '10 at 14:22

conio.h is a C header file used in old MS-DOS compilers to create text user interfaces. It is not described in The C Programming Language book, and it is not part of the C standard library, ISO C nor is it required by POSIX.

Since you are on Linux, to resolve it don't include conio.h and don't use any functions from that header.

Especially if you are using Fedora ;) – BatchyX Sep 17 '10 at 07:47

FWIW, most people use `conio.h` just to use `getch()` so their program doesn't exit straight away in their IDE. There's a perfectly good standard alternative in `getchar()`: see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3153538/2d-array-addition/3153678#3153678 – paxdiablo Sep 17 '10 at 07:51
