Where would I put that, Geoff? I have to go into the
/usr/src/RPM/BUILD/libraw1394-0.9.0 directory and mess around in there? I can
recompile kernel src rpms but not this package. It apparently crashes in the
make process while doing checks. I did a little searching and was wondering
will I have to change info in the file config.guess? I tried rebuiding with
target i686 but that didn't help neither. I have no idea what to do in this
situation. This is a first for me. Without this lib being built, I can not
use the SB1394 port on my Audigy card or my new pci firewire card that I
bought. All this so that I can use a new firewire webcam , Orange IBot. Save
me someone as I only get this error with libraw1394. Should I try an older
source to see if that would work?
