I had a couple of problems, which I fixed, and then it configured and installed great. Say more about "is not configuring". The more descriptive you can be about your problem, the better a solution people can offer (and if your initial email is descriptive enough, we can usually skip this whole "it worked for me say more about" email entirely). Two unusual things I had to do: ./configure --no-gcc-checking (I think! Read './configure --help' and see what it says about gcc version checking!) install "nasm" from RPM (at rpmfind or, I'm told, on the CDs) So I'm guessing you haven't done one or the other of those things. --Dan
