Without error messages or even a hint of what you're failing to do, it's hard to help you. So configure works, but make fails? Be more specific.

[eddie7]

Sorry.


$ tar xjvf showeq-5.5.0.0-pre1.tar.bz2
$ cd showeq-5.5.0.0-pre1
$ ./configure

That part is fine.
$ make
I get the error:
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.

There's a final 5.5 build that is newer than that pre-release you probably should get.

That error from make means that whatever directly you are in does not have the makefile it should have in it. Cut and paste the output of ls from the same place you typed make.

checking for Qt... no
>> Unable to locate your Qt includes...
configure: error: Please verify your Qt devel install!
[eddie@localhost showeq-5.5.0.0]$ make
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.
[eddie@localhost showeq-5.5.0.0]$

Qt error. Ive downloaded it from several servers.

So when you say that configure worked fine, you were just kidding I guess.

You need to properly install qt development libraries. They are required to compile showeq.

[eddie7]

My apologies.
Do I find the qt libraries at mandrake?

I don't use mandrake and am not familar with it, but I'd assume that they have a qt-devel package.
