I really appreciate you posting these compiling pointers, even though I have now got a working product, I may try compiling the beta from cvs so these will certainly come in handy.

I am using the Ion window manager http://iki.fi/tuomov/ion/ So I just press F3, type rekall and presss Enter I don't use KDE or any other bloat. But perhaps you also have a Run command, so you can type the name of the program to start it. -- Miernik _ xmpp:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ___/__ tel: +427 __/ mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.miernik.ctnet.pl/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

AnyOne got Rekall working on Debian
I am trying to get Rekall 2.0 to compile on Debian sid. It seems to crap out saying that there are no headers or libs installed. I have qt3-mt installed, am wondering if the 'mt' is the problem.

It seems that to KDE developers Debian's qt is installed in a nonstandard location.

I got them to install from the site you gave me, but apparantly there is not a menu section in the config files for debian yet. At any rate my KDE3 did not recognize it not even when I ran update-menus as root. So the next question is how do you start it? BTW I also took a look at the mailing/news lists there seems to be a lot of Debian folks interested.
