Hey everyone, I installed Vector Linux the other day and I've been installing a lot of stuff to get it working the way I want.

I have the 2.4.17 kernel, XFree86 4.2, SDL 1.2.3, smpeg 4.3.5, and latest Nvidia drivers (2314 i believe).

I extract both the data and source files of Chromium and in .bash_profile I set CHROMIUM_DATA=/root/Chromium-0.9

./configure works fine for chromium, it detects that I have all the necessary stuff.. then when I run make it begins compiling and I eventually get this -


HelpPage.cpp: In method `HelpPage::HelpPage(QWidget * = 0, const char * = 0, bool = false)':
HelpPage.cpp:25: no matching function for call to `QTextBrowser::setPaperColorGroup (QColorGroup &)'
HelpPage.cpp:26: no matching function for call to `QTextBrowser::setLinkColor (QColor)'
make[1]: *** [HelpPage.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/Chromium-0.9/src-setup'
make: *** [src-setup] Error 2


Any ideas? Should I update gcc or something?

Thanks for help!

Sorry as I have no idea what that error could mean. Have you tried the Chromium website or a Google search for those errors?

Whenever I compile from source, I first pray to the compiling Gods that if it should fail, let it be a error I can understand.

HAHA, that's what I do everytime I try to install something. Then I sit around for 2 days trying to figure out why it failed.

Man, it's wierd being a newbie. hehe. I knew I should have learned Linux years ago instead of going with Win95..

Looks like you're missing some QT related development packages. (qt2-devel?)

Yes, that would be my guess.

Is Vector Linux rpm based?

rpm -q qt-devel
or
rpm -q qt2-devel
