Look at the wiki: http://www.xastir.org/wiki/index.php/HowTo:Ubuntu_6.10 The instructions there for 7.04 are pretty much the same as for 8.04, with only minor changes. It's probably easiest if you use Synaptic to install the packages required instead of the "apt-get" lines suggested there, because it'll be easier to find the right packages (the packages with version numbers in them probably won't be right). But other than one or two packages with version numbers in their names, the 7.04 instructions are exactly right for 8.04, too. Important: do not install "libdb4.4-dev" but rather install libdb4.7-dev. -- Tom Russo KM5VY SAR502 DM64ux http://www.swcp.com/~russo/ Tijeras, NM QRPL#1592 K2#398 SOC#236 http://kevan.org/brain.cgi?DDTNM "Argue for your limitations and sure enough, they're yours." -- R.
