So many entries I choose the main one with the dependencies... After I go back to my console and start over again to install the quick launch... Same error message... So I go back to rpmdrake and select all the Qt3 packages left. And I get the signature error message. I pass and then I get an other error message... end of the story.

Have a nice Sunday Christophe QT is a Window toolkit. It is what KDE is based on. You did not post the exact error message, but I would guess it is asking for libqt3-devel It seems Openoffice has a -quickstart feature built into the Linux version. If you run it with 'ooffice -quickstart' when you first start your session, then ooffice will run in background. The next time you start ooffice normally, then it will appear almost immediately. derek -- www.jennings.homelinux.net http://twiki.mdklinuxfaq.org Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH

that you need to install the package gcc
urpmi gcc
should do the trick, but if you truely have no development packages
installed at all there will probably be more missing dependencies.
hint, if ./configure asks for a library try
urpmi library_name-devel
cheers,

However, you will very likely need a lot more than that, so: Go to Mandrake Control Center -- Install Packages -- click the arrow beside 'Development' -- check the box beside 'Development'.
