I always use 'make install' for all software installations, even the big things like KDE. I just want to have debug symbols compiled in everywhere, it's really convenient. An additional 'clean' deletes the source code after compilation, you should decide fo yourself what's better. If you want to learn programming you might want to leave some source code around, as some people learn better from examples. And yes, you don't have to care for dependencies etc. yourself, make does everything for you. Should you still have problems, please post the error messages you're getting.

I have been trying to find one for a month now, of-and-on, but nothing seems to work. I have 4.9 on my lifebook. That has a bit less to do with it, than the fact that there is virtually no support for this operating system. I just want to read websites that use jave-javascript-macromedia-flash-etc.... Why is it so difficult for BSD to allow the use of the operating system for simple things. On the freeBSDmall box, the first thing you see is a comment about "serious web users" what is the deal?? I am not even a serious web user and I am seeing the limitations of using the web, unless I wanted to build a super-clustering-calculating-for-nothing-other-than-the-fact-that-the-OS-can project. Please, someone, give me a clue, because after a month of this, I am wondering how a company like yahoo.com can using this operating system, when it can barely show the content on its own site... -- Respectfully, Martes G.W.
