Cool. If you have time, I wouldn't mind IM'ing you about your gnome install. Been so long I have to install/set it up first. Looks like we are on oposite sides of the globe tho... might be hard time wise.
I'm not seeing your Yahoo handle on your profile tho..
For those autoconf errors, try running 'autoreconf -if' in the sources after unpacking and before running configure.
You actually should only need gtk2(atk,cairo,pkg-config), ORBit2 and libIDL. Be sure to check that there are no conflicts as ORBit2 may install libIDL.
Thanks for the reply. Nonetheless, i've read that compiz comes embedded with slack 12 already. So i guess i just need to activate it somehow. I will skip the installation and start looking for a way to get it running.
