Well the 3 zip/tarballs just get unpacked on top of each other, they all contain a linden/ base folder and these all should be overlayed. Fmod needs to be handled differently still. The dynlib needs to be placed in linden/libraries/darwin?/Release/ and Debug/ and the fmod.h in linden/libraries/darwin?/Include ... where "darwin?" is the name of the arch folder that will get created (but i'm not 100% sure what) AFTER first running develop.py, a little confusing yes i know. There is a JIRA patch that allows develop.py to accept an external location for fmod so that this last stage of dancing the files around is not necessary. So i guess you need to run develop.py configure, let the libs download add the fmod.h and dynlib to the other libs and run it again to ensure fmod is used for a sound system. After that if you have cmake and python on your system you should be able to just go to linden/indra and run the python script develop.py with the configure option and it will start to download the rest of the lib deps you need or shout about what is wrong. Hope that helps and has not just confused you more ;-p Robin
