I haven't had any joy trying to install the Redhat RPMs on mandrake 10.1. It might be me but I did take some time trying. I also tried using the SRPMs and building my own but that didn't work either. Since then I've compiled my version and it works great. The only thing I needed to do was mess around with the startup scripts a bit.
