Hi Michael. that option is what I am already doing, which is why I am confused. 'make' from the terminal works great, 'make' from eclipse craps out.
I tried running eclipse from the terminal, and it didnt help. I noticed something else strange here is the output from eclipse once I have done a make from the terminal, then done a build in eclipse (essentially nothing to do, so eclipse doesnt bomb) **** Build of configuration Linux GCC for project mdc **** make VERBOSE=1 -d GNU Make 3.81 Copyright (C) 2006 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

Is it important? I have no clue about this, but it seems to me that eclipse is alomst trying to compete with the makefile if that makes sense?
