"Please let us know what failed. Maybe we can quickly help."

./configure cannot find the tcl/tk headers (although I have installed both). 
This is probably a simple thing to resolve but I was tired when I tried this.  
I think it is probably just a location issue for the 64bit Intrepid.

"Perhaps an Ubuntu issue here? I am using 64bit Linux without troubles
for years meanwhile."

Yes, I agree, although a quick search in google shows the myriad of problems 
with the ati drivers. I have had no problems with the 32bit Ubuntu (albeit 
without the ati card) but few scripts work out of the box with the 64bit 
version. I need Jachym to do the hard work for me in Intrepid! (I guess a 6 
month release cycle asks a lot of everyone).

Best wishes

Darrel

Markus
