Which C compiler are you using? stlport is in /opt/SUNWspro/lib/stlport4 and /opt/SUNWspro/prod/include/CC/stlport4, so you'll need to add those to your CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS. gtk-config is in /usr/sfw/bin which will need to be in your PATH. http://www.davyd.id.au/articles/debugging-gnome-applets.shtml has some details on debugging, but that's probably not relevant to you yet. -- James Andrewartha
