blizz Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 enter that in your console in the appropriate directory: make sudo make install if you do not have sudo installed/working, just become root via su and enter the following: make install Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hranj Posted August 22, 2006 Author Share Posted August 22, 2006 yeah its saying the same thing but instead of make its saying that gmake command not found. im using the terminal that came with Ubuntu, IDK if that would have anything to do with it. Do i need to reinstall or dl another terminal or something like that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
