Did you get a high enough version of GTK? and hmm gtk  do you have/nee d
all the following?) (GLib, GTK+, Pango, and ATK packages) and perhaps
libpng pkgconfig tiff -> eternal dependencies satisfied.

the GTK stuff might not be in your path.. might have to manually tell
configure where gtk-config gtklibs are?

I'd build from scratch if possible... since you're using files that are
compiled for another distro...

Might be some anti-Lindows code preventing compilation? (Just kidding
Arpi).

The following link concerns me...

It's like Lindows is cashing in on all the hard work of Arpi and the
rest of the developers...

I don't know much about Lindows... but already i'm disliking it.... and
feel it has little place in the linux comunnity.
