Hi there!
When i'm trying to make menuconfig (make xconfig not working for me - don't have QT) i got a lot of errors:

Code:

When i'm trying make config everything is okay, but i do not want to use that one :P It's ugly for me...

First, try running

Code:

export LC_ALL=C
export LANG=C

before saving any error output to post on forum.

Second, install curses. It should be like apt-get curses. Also, if you have gtk, you have chance of succeeding with make gconfig.

I don't have internet connection on linux yet, so i cannot run apt-get

I don't have GTK2.

Well, then try to find it on installation CD's or download from Windows.. Installation should be done with dpkg or dpkg-something, but I don't know parameters.

OKay i've got it, but nwo errors are:

(i cannot see what's before first line, i've pasted here.)

What about running 'make &>make.log' and posting everything after 5-th line above first "error"?

TrAvIkK · 12-22-2006, 05:29 AM

You meant make menuconfig&>make.log ofcourse, right ?

it gives me the same...
(don't see any "errors")

TrAvIkK · 12-23-2006, 04:06 AM

OKay, i've handled it!
I just did not installed libncurses :P

myrons41 · 01-24-2007, 02:22 PM

Right.
I had very similar errors and the instalation of ncurses-devel solved it for me too on Suse 10.2.
I only wish to thank the people maintaining this forum.

disceptator · 01-29-2008, 03:39 PM

thx lots for this, helped me alot

Centos 5
needed to: yum install ncurses-devel
to get past it.
