 That's the first of 3 pages that cover what you need and how to 
compile source.

Did you install "development" version?

I was getting the same problem, its wierd because sometimes mandrake
installed the make command files or whatever they are and sometimes
they didn't.  What you need to do is go to the rpm installer packager thing
and look for make on your install cd, then install it.  It should work fine
under that.
