It looks as though you don't have audio header files on your system, or the XEmacs source is looking in the wrong place for said audio header files. From your prompt, do the following command: find / -name soundlib.h -print If find shows you that you do in fact have soundlib.h on your

I really do like both distributions. They both have different things to offer. Maybe it's because I'm still new at it...having to install the base system, and then come back to install X just doesn't seem right to me. And Netscape is a bit of a nosebleed! I'm using Debian 2.0.2. On Thu,
