Hi,

I downloaded qemu 10.0 from here:

http://mirror.cinquix.com/pub/savannah/qemu/

I extracted the contents, then ran ./configure. Here is the ouput:

Code:

Install prefix    /usr/local

I then run make, and receive this error:

Code:

  LINK  i386-softmmu/qemu

make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/ronin/downloads/qemu-0.10.0/i386-softmmu'

I have also tried qemu 10.5, and receive the same error.

Please help.

Thanks,
pimy

There's a SlackBuild for qemu on 11 here:
http://slackbuilds.org/result/?search=qemu&sv=11.0

I agree with brianL. I've got qemu installed on my slackware 12.2 system, I used the slack build script from slackbuilds.org. It works just fine.
That is the way to go, pimy.

it seems you need X11 package installed.
