IIRC, you need some alsa dev libs as well as the SDL ones. That would explain the tuxpaint problem. It may also fix the glaxium problem as well. I *think* the alsa dev libs were on disc 2, but I might be wrong.
Try installing those dev libs and see what happens. If you're still having problems, repost with the output of the config.log and we'll go from there...

Thanks for the reply. Well, I installed all the dev packages, thinking that might be the problem. Yes, tower toppler and frozen bubble work just fine (just tried). Here is the output from a couple of apps I'm trying to compile. This is glaxium: checking for sdl-config... /usr/bin/sdl-config checking for SDL - version >= 1.1.5... no *** Could not run SDL test program, checking why... *** The test program failed to compile or link. See the file config.log for the *** exact error that occured. This usually means SDL was incorrectly installed *** or that you have moved SDL since it was installed. In the latter case, you *** may want to edit the sdl-config script: /usr/bin/sdl-config configure: error: *** SDL version not found! and this is Tuxpaint: f86dga -lXv -lXinerama -ldl -lSDL_image -lSDL_ttf -lSDL_mixer -lm /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lasound collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make: *** [tuxpaint] Error 1 I went to rpmfind/net and tried entering lasound but nothing was returned. Any other thoughts, ideas, and/or sage advice? <grin> Thanks again! -- /\ Dark< >Lord \/
