Hi, I didn't get any reply to my first posting so I'll try once more and keep my fingers crossed... Problem: When installing ALSA sound card drivers the compilation of the utils package stops with the error "missing ncurses.h". How do I install this file in the easiest way? Background: Dell Inspiron 3800 dual-boot laptop with W98 and Mandrake 7.0-2. Unfortunately Mandrake lacks drivers for my ESS Maestro-3i sound card. The latest ALSA release does support this card, but when I try to compile the utils package it can't find ncurses.h. True enough, this file is not on my system even though I have ncurses 5.1-8mdk installed. I'd rather not have to mess too much with ncurses, as almost every other software seems to depend on it (!), so how do I get the right ncurses.h installed in the least messy way? Do I have to risk a forced uninstall of ncurses, downloading the source code and compiling/installing from scratch?
