I don't think he was necessarily suggesting that you change it permanently. Just do export CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" and then run your configure again, see if you get further. This will just set the variable for the life of that shell. It will not do anything permanent to anything else. mike > > http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_change_CHOST_relatively_safely
