I'd installed that a while back for something else I was installing, but I'd install it, and also libasound2-dev. Another package I had installed was binutils, and it may be worth installing that. I'm not trying to get you to needlessly install packages, just for the sake of it, but am puzzled why when doing sudo make install, the ja.gmo file can't be found. On the face of it, it looks like configure hasn't done all it should do, and would explain why the make install is failing. Just a side note in addition to the suggested packages above. make sure with synaptic that gettext, and gettext-base are installed. I think they are installed as part of the initial install of Ubuntu/Kubuntu, but it's worth checking. Would you run ./configure, and paste the output in your reply, or attach it as a .txt file. You could also look in your alsa-utils-1.0.16 directory. Open the alsaconf/po directory. You should see 2 files ja.gmo (japanese), and ru.gmo (russian) if make install is doing it's job. Before you run ./configure (for the first time), there are only 3 files in the alsaconf/po directory, as below: ja.po ru.po Makefile.in When you run ./configure, configure, at the end of it's run creates a bunch of Makefiles, including one in alsaconf/po. Now you should see 4 files as below: ja.po ru.po Makefile.in Makefile (the new one) Now an sudo make install should result in 2 extra files in alsaconf/po, as below: ja.gmo ru.gmo Both of these are identified as "type unknown", but should now exist for the make install to run to completion. Peter. I will send you offlist my ./configure output, and you can compare it with yours. All the best.
