have recently tried the new suse flavour off the linux format magazine and followed the instruction in order to install my first tarball.
it went ok up to MAKE, and then i got a message saying something like " no C compiler in specified path". can someone please advise on the solution?.

GS.

You probably need to install gcc and several other tools for compiling your own programs.

But you know that is not the only way to get software. Yast is setup for you to download precompiled rpms of the software you know and want.
