Application installation problem.


Hi, I am a new to Linux.

I have successfully installed Mandrake Linux 9.2. I was trying to install 'yawmppp' which is a dialup app for linux. KPPP is not working for me. I have tried connecting with KPPP with all kind of scripts and on various distros but I couldn't connect to my ISP. Though I can connect from CLI all the time. Now I want a GUI to dialup and connect to internet and that's why I am trying to install this 'yawmppp' application.

When I tried to run './configure' I got a message that 'GTK 1.2' is not found which is required to run this app but I have already GTK 2.x installed on my system which came with this distribution. What should I do to install this application. Thanks.

Rhoniel

Thanks but it didn't work. But now I have another problem. I am trying to install xine 0.9 from source on the MDK 9.2 system. I can run './configure' without any problem but when I run 'make' I get following message:

cd . && /bin/sh /home/rhoniel/xine-lib/missing --run autoconf
autoconf: configure.in No such file or directory
makeL *** [configure] Error 1

any ideas?

Thanks.

it is obviously that you have library problems - e.g. the installed librearies cannot be found. Look at ld.so.cache file and read the man page of this file. I had similiar problem when installing kde, the qt library could not be found - but i installed if perfectly. Did you setup enviroment variables for GTK?
