I think configure is looking for a compiler and can't find any. Do you have gcc installed on your system?

Are you by any chance running Mandrake? I used Mandrake 8.2, did a full install, and it didn't come with a c compiler.:rolleyes:

It is on the CD that you used to install SuSE.
Look for gcc. I think the version should be 3.2.

gcc's homepage is http://gcc.gnu.org but you can't install source files from there since you don't have a compiler. That's why you have to install the rpm package from the CD.
