You're not supposed to trifle with the kernel in Debian, I guess. After installing, say, Fedora, typing "xconfig" would pop the window right up, but that's not the case here (Sarge). The kernel source was missing, and that's easy to correct. But then "make xconfig" * * Unable to find the QT installation. Please make sure that the * QT development package is correctly installed and the QTDIR * environment variable is set to the correct location. * make[1]: *** [scripts/kconfig/.tmp_qtcheck] Error 1 make: *** [xconfig] Error 2
What's the QT installation? And what's the QT development package? And what's the correct location for the QTDIR environment variable? The query apt-cache search qt must have located at least 50 packages. Well, "config" is dreadful, so I wanted to make sure that at least "menuconfig" would work. But that complained that ncurses-dev was absent. There is no such package, but libncurses5-dev must be what they mean, for that works. But suppose I'm a perfectionist? What still needs to be done to get into qconf? I once used it with Fedora, and it's neat.
