All available Mandrake binaries go into spin-forever mode in winereal, with no indication (even in winedbg) of what's chewing up the cycles. Trying to build from source, the configure script complains that I don't have the xpm and cups development libraries, but they're there plain as day and I've even set the X-include path to point to the xpl headers. Getting Wine to work -- or at least COMPILE, for crying out loud! -- on Mandrake shouldn't be this ugly. I've used it in earlier incarnations and although it wasn't perfect it was usable. Suggestions on finding what it's complaining about? -- | Microsoft: "A reputation for releasing inferior software will make | | it more difficult for a software vendor to induce customers to pay | | for new products or new versions of existing products." | +----------- D.
