Thanks ET, Thanks for the words about INSTALL. I saw it and thought it was a new script format I had missed. I followed the INSTALL this afternoon with partial success. It fussed about the dot h files, but gcc does that. Still it ran part way but complained about a whole list of libraries it could not find.

I have the basic popt liibrary installed in the machine. I think I need to either figure out how to tell the compiler where the actual source files are, or find a copy of them and put the popt.h file into the mp490 directory.
