AJS> you are missing the header files (the -devel package, most likely) for AJS> gdk/imlib. install that first. Thanks for your response. For a non-programmer installing new software can be a freaking nightmare. I've been using Slackware for many years, but now, after spending (again!) a few evenings attempting to install one piece of software, I got frustrated and really started to look for alternatives. The easy choice was to use a Windows-alike distribution, where prebuilt packages can be installed from a gui-based manager, but this is too easy and not fun ;) So I decided to try installing Gentoo. The setup procedure looked intimidating (60 pages long), but after a few hours (mostly compiling time), I had the system up and running. Emerge is _very_ impressing. The 2.6 Kernel is stable on my nForce2 board. Life is good again. -- Marcin http://members.shaw.ca/mmhikes /\/\ _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca
