Hello, I may have missed this. Sometimes in the docs for a application it will say at a point " you need to be root or have superuser permissions to do this " I normally login in as user then su - over to superuser. (I hope thats the right terminology). Then I do the ./configure makes etc. Is that okay to do ? or should I be just plain user till its time to make install ? Thanks Mark
