I can point you to a page of mine that discusses installing tarballs from source. It doesn't, however, cover what to do if you don't have the gcc make and so forth programs. In a default Fedora install, I don't think those are included--you have to select the developer's tools and probably kernel developer tools too. Anyway, here's the page http://home.nyc.rr.com/computertaijutsu/tarball.html Let us know what sort of trouble you're having though--it might be missing programs and/or libraries as mentioned above > - -- Scott GPG KeyID EB3467D6 ( 1B848 077D 66F6 9DB0 FDC2 A409 FA54 D575 EB34 67D6) gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys EB3467D6 Whistler: Bottom line is, even if you see them coming, you're not ready for the big moments. No one asks for their life to change, not really. But it does. So, what are we, helpless? Puppets? Nah. The big moments are gonna come, you can't help that. It's what you do afterwards that counts.
