If I remember correctly, the problem is that Ubuntu calls gcc something like gcc-4.0.
Pull up a terminal, and type gcc (which should fail) search for gcc/ cc using the search function as su make a symbolic link to gcc-4.0 (or whatever it's called) an call it gcc in /usr/bin (something like ln -s gcc-4.0 gcc) I don't have my ubuntu box up at the moment, but if this doesn't work drop me an email (matthew.williams _at_ cancer.org.uk) and I'll dig out what I did.
