Unofficial ShowEQ HOWTO and FAQ
In order to reduce the amount of useless spam threads, I will just use one. Below are the URLs to some things you might find useful that I have written in order to facilitate your installation of ShowEQ onto RedHat 7.2 or Mandrake 8.1. Also below is a FAQ which you might find useful if you read before posting. It may answer the question you are about to ask. This thread should also be used to discuss questions, suggestions or issues with the HOWTOs or FAQ. It will keep it all in one place and hopefully make it easier for me to update, fix and alter. It will also avoid cluttering up the original threads with useless posts and ensure that you only have to read the one post to get all the info you need. Thanks to casey for making me realize that 6 threads on this board were actually a huge waste, it just never occured to me to make one.

Hey which IP address Do i use??
Sorry, this is kinda lame..but inyour guide it says to enter the IP address after ./showeq
Well, I tried using the IP address of the computer that EQ runs off of and it says it couldnt be found? Is that the right one, or is it supposed to be the IP address of the EQ Servers *Like from the eqhosts.txt file*
Thx! Sorry just wanted to clear that up
Something's not working for me :(
When i get to this part
export CC=gcc3 ; export CXX=g++3 ; export QTDIR=/usr/lib/qt-2.3.2
make -f Makefile.dist
./configure
make
make install
all i get is
Make: Makefile.dist: No such file or directory
make: ***No rule to make target 'makefile.dist'. Stop
