thanks Zoltan, your patch applied flawlessly. However, I can't run ./configure successfully now... I get: Code: sudo ./configure checking build system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu checking host system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes checking for gcc... gcc -m32 checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables See `config.log' for more details. I ran checkinstall after that, and noticed that the achitecture is set to AMD64, though I have a intel e6750, which is 64 bit, but I *think* I'm running 32bit Ubuntu (wubi didn't mention anything.) Code: checkinstall checkinstall 1.6.1, Copyright 2002 Felipe Eduardo Sanchez Diaz Duran This software is released under the GNU GPL. The package documentation directory ./doc-pak does not exist.
