Yeah, but be sure to specify any odd directory locations for your distro, as I forgot about that in Mandrake, and ended up sending it to wherever the --prefix option defaults to.

killi 05-16-2003 01:28 PM

ok but where on slack?

bulliver 05-16-2003 01:32 PM

It probably defaults to /usr/local/bin
What's wrong with that?

Not to sound condescending, but are you sure you don't already have it installed? It is pretty standard.

killi 05-16-2003 01:33 PM

no i have not installed it i just wanted to make shure
before i start

cheers

Well in Mdk that's not the right place bulliver, and using the current menu entries I got the older executable, and when I copied one over the other I lost the icon :o

tommyj27 05-16-2003 02:26 PM

i'e installed it to the default /usr/local/bin in slack before with no problems :)

cheers,

Sorry, but I'm new to all these....

What are the commands to install it? Could you make it a little more clearly?

Thanks

I tried entering "make" but came up with errors, couldnt install.

jungleboy111 05-22-2003 10:43 PM

This is what was the output.... I dont understand why theres an error...Pls help...

view the readme and install files after you extract it

normally it is:
(in the terminal)

(as user)
./configure
make
(as root)
make install

see my guide in my signature below for a more detailed list of commands.

I was searching for the error that caused my problem as above. One site was talking about
"/bin/sh: line 1: cc: command not found"
as not having a c compiler installed.

But I do have gcc installed, so why do I still have this problem?

And also....I'm not sure what you were saying previously.

Pls help...Sorry for the trouble.

yowwww 05-23-2003 12:36 AM

ok, let's backtrack here

what is the exact name of the file you are trying to install?

jungleboy111 05-26-2003 02:29 AM

Regarding the prev prob: I untar-ed the tar file of gkrellm, went into its directory, typed "make" but gave the error as stated above. That error that is seen from above is the error that i always get when i try "make" on any untar-ed files.

I managed to get gkrellm installed. I used the rpm file instead of the tar file.

I've got another problem.

How do I display the fan readings on gkrellm? I cant seem to find any place to do that in the configuration menu.

Config screen -> Builtins -> Sensors -> Info tab. Check it's recieving such sensor data.
