Re: [SOLVED] Installing on BT2

This looks like a compilation problem related to your distribution or your settings. The places where the errors occure are without any doubt bug free and not sensitive for normal problems like wrong dependencies or linking problems. Maybe you have some weird CFLAGS that prevent compiling of C code. You could try setting the CFLAGS to something normal before compiling.

export CFLAGS="-O2 -pipe"
./xfce-installer.run

Re: [SOLVED] Installing on BT2

INSTALLED WITH slapt-get --install xfce

but its not the latest version... the latest version comes with Slackware12

BackTack2 Distro = Slackware 11

Thanks for your answer but
"export CFLAGS="-O2 -pipe" does not work...
