Hi,

Thanks for the advice. Right after posting the message I wondered if I
had installed make. Turned out I haven't. I installed it and it built
w/o errors.

With that being said, you're right in that I don't know what libhal or
libusb are, though I do know libusb is a USB related library
obviously. I do also have libusb installed, so I'm not sure why it
would complain. I did a locate usb.h but could not find the file
though, so maybe I need something other than libusb? libusb-devel
perhaps?

I tried searching the Mandriva CDs for these packages but could not
find them. Could you advise me on the significance of these missing
packages, and where and how to install them if they are absolutely
necessary?

Also, this Mandriva box is simply a development PC. Ultimately I will
be attempting to install pcsclite as well as ccid on a bare kernel
that I've compiled(version 2.6.22.19 if that matters), which is partly
why I'm messing around with the generic version...so that I will be
familiar enough to do the installation later on the bare kernel.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks again.
