Re: phpmyadmin

the mbstring extension is the extension PHP uses for encoding and decoding character sets (char-set) that are "multi-byte" (hence the mb...string).
Unfortunately this is not enabled by default when installing PHP5 (or 4) so you have to enable it with --enable-mbstring configure option..
