problem installing nvclock redhat 9.0

[joudbren]

Hi all! New Linux noob and trying to install nvclock. Running RH 9.0 with all upgrades and .9 kernel. Latest Nforce drivers and Geforce drivers from Nvidia are installed and working. System is an Athlon 3200+ with 1 gig dualmode DDR ram and Geforce3 Ti200 on Gigabyte GA-7N400-L.

I have downloaded and unzipped the latest NVClock and did the ./configure bit and everything seems fine up until I try and run the "make" command, then no joy. The following is copied from my terminal window:

[root@localhost nvclock0.7]# make
make -C src all

Anyone have any ideas for this Linux rookie? Thanks in advance!

Look in the configure script for the correct option to turn off building of the qt interface and you should be fine, it built the gtk interface without errors.

I believe you'll find it with:
./configure --help

or check the included README or INSTALL for the way to disable building qt, it will be a command line option sent to the configure script.

(why it fails beats me, most likely you don't have some qt development or source packages available or configured properly)

Thanks! I'll check it out. Not sure what I don't have loaded though as I did a complete RH9 install as I wasn't sure what would be needed sooner or later. Cheers!
