Hi Emile: Thanks for that information. Your platform is essentially identical to mine in all respects (including hardware platform) except for the cmake version. Just for fun, you might want to try the latest cmake release (2.8.0) for 5.9.5 which is what I will be doing myself in the next few days. (I will also try the Debian Lenny cmake version (2.6.0-6) and also the version of cmake I used for my prior testing (2.6.4) on 5.9.5 in an effort to figure out what is going on.) Here are my quick notes on how I did the cmake-2.8.0 build and install without interfering with the system version. Adapt them for your needs. cd /home/software/cmake export DIR=v2.8 export CMAKE_VERSION=2.8.0 wget http://www.cmake.org/files/$DIR/cmake-${CMAKE_VERSION}.tar.gz less cmake-${CMAKE_VERSION}.tar.gz tar zxf cmake-${CMAKE_VERSION}.tar.gz cd cmake-${CMAKE_VERSION} ./bootstrap --prefix=/home/software/cmake/install-${CMAKE_VERSION} \ --parallel=4 --qt-gui >& bootstrap.out make -j4 >& make.out make -j4 install >& make_install.out grep -i warning *.out grep -i error *.out cd .. rm -f install ln -s install-${CMAKE_VERSION} install PATH=/home/software/cmake/install/bin":$PATH" Hope these notes are of some help to you. Note the above symbolic link approach allows me to switch back conveniently to any of the different cmake versions I have built and installed in the past while using the same PATH.
