Hi /Karl Thank you for your help. I first thought that your patch might of been for the development version of lilypond -"2.9.*". "./configure --with-ncsb-dir=/usr/share/fonts/.." did the trick for me. My next step is to make the web documents. But that will not happen until I remake my Linux system with the latest kernel headers 2.6.16.18. and install Xorg-7.1. I'll keep you posted on how I'll go sometime on the weekend. (I'll also compile everything with ghostscript instead of espgs too).
