Stephen, I am using Mandrake 7.2 as well. Check if all of these packages are installed: (you can check them from drakconf and then package manager). Check if 1. gcc is installed with c++ 2. libgc is there 3. latex2c++ 4. cvs are installed. Finally, to be on the safe side, install the rpm for xpm library.
