Type man fakeroot to terminal, to see what it does. BUT, I recommend to just use sudo! It is simpler. If you don't have root password, then you have to change installation path.

I get permission denied when I try to navigate to root. whao, I think you misunderstood me: I didn't say cd to /root, I said BE the root user. (but anyway, that is not normal to be refused /root access as a user @ least for read, except of course for some sensible files) If you don't know how to go to root from user, type: su - (the '-' IS important: man su) then enter the password of root user; normally the prompt will change from '$' (user) to '#' (root) and you'll be really root user. When you reach this point, 'cd /pathofzesource', 'make clean', './configure', and 'make install' should do the work. What is fakeroot ? As I only use Debian it may be typical from it. It creates a pseudo-root environment and allow you to make some stuffs only root is permitted (but I re-read the doc and it was a bad idea: you can manipulate root files, but not install to system path with it) JY -- Just because your doctor has a name for your condition doesn't mean he knows what it is. -- Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
